Rider’s Blog: Day 58
It was a sunny day on Whistler with Dan and Rico. Temps were a bit warmer than usual and it was bluebird all day. We made Rico conquer his fear of the t-bar. He made it up to the top but also said it was “the most painful snowboarding experience ever”. Haha.
We rode Symphony a couple of times and did some top to bottom laps; bombing sometimes and buttering around on others. We finished up at 4:15pm and it was an all-round fun day.

Dad was here
Hahhaahaaa, I wish that I was still there!!!!!
Nice pics!!!!! Looks like an awesome day!!!!! And good shit, skip!!!!! They are f&*#‘n uncomfortable to ride!!!!!
Hahaha, t-bar is scarier than a double black run lol. And I think I injured my hip flexor too from last week playing basketball. Makes riding it even more uncomfortable. Stoked though, fun day today great riding with Dan and Jeremy. Did my fastest village run today following Jeremy.
Yeah sweet day up there. Was super warm and sunny but great snow. Awesome to meet Rico and go for a ride. Had the gopro helmet cam and no fog issues. Some reasonable footage. Jeremy nearly took me out which came out pretty good on the gopro.

What’s you problem, Mizu? T-bars are only uncomfortable to ride for people who’ve got balls.
Thanks for the tips Mizu
Oh and I never replied to your txt msg because my phone has no reception over here
I’ve emailed my phone provider to see what’s going on. But if it’s a no goer I will get a sim while I’m here. Finney said you did that. Was it a decent deal?
Dan if your roaming is on try manually searching for a phone network - I was struggling in japan until I manually chose one.

This can be quite expensive dependent on ya provider!!!!!
I struggle with t-bars as well, so painful! Those pictures are awesome!
Using international roaming will be heaps expensive!

Turn off Data roaming - am guessing he only wants it for text messages and will use free wifi where he can?
Data Roaming will kill you.
Mate got hit with $1800 for a week in NZ.
When i asked why he turned it on he replied “i wanted to check facebook”
On Ifail, sorry Iphone’s it warns you 2-3 times whilst attemptin to turn data roaming on “excessive charges may apply” so be warned lol
I dated a guy once who b!tched about a $3k phone data bill after spending a month in (ironically) Whistler. I thought it was grounds for break up that he was that stupid (and thought Telstra were the arseholes!)!!! But thought I was being harsh… Luckily he gave me other reasons to end it!
