What's my line? The view from Giant - Shiga Kogen, January 2010, post 6
Shiga Kogen's Giant is a moderate length speed burner course. When groomed, you can go as fast as you dare...and watch epic skier yard sales as you go by. When moguls dot its surface, avoid it. When there's powder, use the speed and carve the edges. Almost no one knows...at first. Here's a great line on the second day we were there. Still fresh - just stay left and turn on the afterburners.
