[Career]
I went skiing to Suganodaira for the first time in the age of the university graduation.
I became a member of the mountaineer club of the company after becoming a member of society. I learned skiing in winter around the New Year besides the mountain climbing in the club. The skiing grounds are Zaou, Shiga, Happo-one, Ishiuchi and Kusatsu.
I have been stopping skiing for a while after I married. Then I went to the Happo-one with the member of NMC(New Management Club) about ten years ago and I restarted after that time.
I was invited to the villa in Tateshina by Mr. I who was a member of NMC and I remenberd to go to the ski area by the car. I have a lodge which is near North-KARUIZAWA. It is joint possession of six friends at the university and it had been used only in the summer untill that time. It became a base camp and I began to go skiing every winter.
[Current state]
I continue to go skiing after my retirement. I go skiing around twelve days a year.
I go to Manza and Kusatsu via the above mentioned lodge as a base with the companion of NMC or former company member, and I go to Bandai(Inawashiro) and Zao, etc. with the companion of NMC.
I began to participate since 1998, in the course of BSA(Best Ski Academy) planned by Ms. Fumio HIRASAWA, "Skiing art in middle and advanced age" lecturer which was telecasting on the NHK education television. I went to Nozawaonsen and Shiga as the course. I switched to the carving ski on 1999 and BSA changed also the curriculum to the carving ski.
I moved deeply to have chosen shoes for the "O" leg when I went to a special sports shop to buy my ski.
It is a safe sports to ski, and it is happy to slide down in wide ski slopes with my companion. It seems to be able to ski up to about 90 years old as in the case of Mr.IGAYA.
