Still need to work on wrangling that back hand but seeing massive improvements in my heelside carves after my lesson in Japan last week 🏂❤️

Became aware of CBC Gem during the Olympics and apparently all of Shitt's Creek is available to stream for free on it so I've started watching that.

The fruit wine vineyard commercial had me in absolute tears 😂

Stayed in Nagano for a few days to go riding at Togakushi. Weather was a bit warm but we had a great time. Even got to meet Rama, one of my favourite pro snowboarders!

In Nagano. Went out for soba and coffee. Checked into our hotel and found it has a lounge with massage chairs and a decent selection of manga to read.

On the shuj's recommendation I read the the first two volumes of "Ichi-nichi Gaishutsuroku Hancho." It's quite the fun series!

Got almost 9 hours of sleep last night but still not enough. Been writing cheques all week for energy to snowboard and my body has finally decided to cash them in.

Good timing though as we're catching the bus back to Nagano and chilling for the weekend. Then on Mon/Tue week be riding at Togakushi.

I got to have a lesson with a pro rider today. She is so amazing I was in absolute awe of her riding and teaching ability. Had such a great time and learned so much from her! 🏂

Beauty of a day. Hakuba 47/Goryu has easily become one of my most favourite resorts to ride at 🏂

Sat down and finished the Alliance Aid event. Joining massive groups and everyone working together to do contracts was quite a lot of fun.

I really like the event armour too though they need to do something about the hair under the helmet. #StarCitizen

I'm getting "Too Many Requests" errors, guess it got overloaded.

It was a beautiful but quite icy day today. Went riding for a bit, had lunch and then went to Fox & Oak for their hot choccy special.

Those icy conditions took more out of me than I thought as I crashed as soon as I hit the couch 😴

The North Shore snow pack is looking pretty rough. Was out all day yesterday riding and instructing, and despite the rain everyone had a great time!

Incredibly tired today though just from everything going on the past couple of weeks, and my time has been divided between eating and lots of naps.

Maybe I need some supplements or something because despite sleeping and eating well I'm finding it hard to stay energized.

Night diving was awesome! Swimming around in pitch black water with only or lights to guide us was quite exhilarating. Also at the bottom there were giant prawn everywhere, they were kinda cute 😅❤️🦐

Went snowboarding this morning and still pretty tired from diving all weekend! Doesn't change the fact I'm still super stoked for our night dive tonight.

Can't wait for Tuesday. Gonna snowboard at Whistler in the morning and then go night diving in the ocean!

Did our Deep dive for my Advanced Open Water course. First time diving down to 30m, so dark and exciting!

Had some trouble with my buoyancy deep down as I underestimated how much air I needed to put into my drysuit.

Day 1 of my Advanced Open Water course is finished. Gorgeous sunny day with air temps around freezing and water temps around 7C.

First dive was Peak Buoyancy and second was Wreck. Did a lot of practicing just hovering in the water which is quite difficult! Especially when task loaded 🤿
