The one and only Burton cellular phone! Endorsed by Kazuhiro Kokubo i was just in a Docomo shop in Japan and spied this interesting model. HD ready, shockproof, waterproof beast!

Shots from Kawaba.

Here are some flicks thanks to Shannan McBride. We rode up at Kawaba on the 26th (boxing day). First started off with my 5+ of mini apples, few bamboo shakas, a double stage tree sweep, and a golden room to finish off the day. Good Times!





Thanks Shan:

So i saw this posted on Facebook by a friend. Pretty cool we time capture by Michael Douglas in Whistler Canada. Thought it was worth sharing. Enjoy...

Shredding!!

Today was the first day back shredding! So stoked! We rolled over to Kawaba resort in Gunma. After some good snowfalls in the last few days there was some pow around and the sun was shining. My first time to this enchanted little valley with obvious backcountry options i will be back again soon. Just waiting on the next storm then it will be on! They build up a we park too i hear. Run by Snowstyle they create a natural bowl like course and some jibs too! I rode with Camera man Shan McBride and his girl Aki cyan. My girlfriend Kana was there also. Good times! Hope to get back up soon! Peace!

Lights.

Last night i went to check out the lights at Haruna San (Mt Haruna). Pretty cool. Freezing cold -10 or so with wind chill around -15. Was cool to see these things called Daruma (a hollow, round, Japanese doll modeled after Bodhidharma, the founder of the Zen sect of Buddhism). There is also a folk story or ledgend if you will... That the lost their arms and legs for some reason... Lies they say but nun the less quite interesting. They are also know as a symbol of good luck and perseverance.

Merry Christmas

Even the colonel made an effort in Japan to dress for the occasion. Merry Christmas to everyone and i hope it is white where you are! This photo taken at the KFC in smark mall Issesaki Gunma.

Tokyo Continued.

Some more flicks from downtown. Was cool to check out some streetwear shops and see all the fixies. Also caught up with Jisei Onda creator of Ali. A domestic label with sights on global domination. Jisei played host for Harajyuku sights and shops. Cheers bro!

Burton Tokyo

Rolled into Tokyo Today and Checked out Burton. We first went into the Burton Harajyuku shop where i met up with shop manager Tatsuji Nakashima. Checked out the gears and had a we chat. Later we caught up with some friends working at the Burton Office. Jimmy (Forum/Burton JPN) a guy who i had met through Hajime Hirano a couple of years back. It was good to see everything and the friends i haven't seen in a while. It will be even better once we all get on the mountain! I will post more shots from today in the AM. Later!
