I was only meant to spend a night in tokyo, catch a train early to fukashima the next day but due heavy winds the regional
express was staying stationary. So we got the chance to cruise around tokyo for another day and night.
Tokyo was super fun, and interesting. We spent most of the day in the district of shibuya. Walking in and out stores,
taking snaps, and checking out a city japanese style. A long the way we kept bumping into other
people who are in some way apart of the snowboard scene from event organizes, to athletes, to media. Its amazing who you see
a draft in Tokyo.
We arrived at the Nippon open a day late but so did most ever body else. I have had one training day in the pipe,
it could have gone a little better. Today we were scheduled to have Slope-style practice, but due to the weather it was cancelled.
So i am Typing this blog. Gretchen Bieler, Ellery Wollingsworth, Jamie Anderson, Kelly Clarke, Jenny Jones, and host of other
internationals are here, plus japans finest, so it's set to be a fun week. So stay tuned for more news, snowboarding,
snowboarding life Japan style, and Karaoke............oh yeah!!!!
