.some years ago, everybody was skiin', lookin dope, some dudes, some gangstas, everything was aiight..
now ,
it seems everybody wants to get the silliest gear and look ridiculous as possible and people think it's OMG SO RAD DUUDE!!!!
personally, i thought it was cool for a few people to wear the neon suits, or flashy one-pieces, (but really only the pros can pull that shit off) but nowadays, everybody is striving to have that look.
I.E,
the new oakley one piece. ugliest suit i've seen since the pukeshot..
why are people making a joke out of skiing? it's ridiculous. so many suits these days are either some variation of brown, or colorful camo, and it just looks silly.. what's getting into you people?

no I totally hear you, skiing is about style and what each individual's style is but the clothing aspect is getting out of hand, it's moving towards how you look with your clothes rather than how you ski or just having fun and hitting rails and jumps, let's keep it easy and have fun, that's what it's all about, shredding and having fun with your friends

i mean, these things just aren't original any more because EVERYBODY wants to do it..
it was just like stickers on skis. a couple people did it, it was dope, then everybody did it, and it just got stupid. it's the same thing for hair too. everybody is starting to grow their hair long, and greasy, and wear a headband, thinking it's WOW SO STEEZY, and ORIGINAL.
NOT..

everybody went gangsta too, somehow. and it's really stupid when people try to pull of the gangsta look when it's CLEARLY not them. people should just do their own thing, and not do it because... that's what skiing's become.
have your own style.. i'm sick of these posers.

yeah the headband thing is out of control, companies are investing time now into creating desings and shit for headbands, I like long hair because it's nice and warm in the winter and not becasue everyone like Sean fucking White does it

Attn these type of skiers: Please wear an unstudded belt and pick up your pants, no one needs to see your boxers when you land

its peoples own choices to do what they want to do, maybe some people dont fit it but whatever its their choice unless they are being some meathead about it then its no big deal. accept things and stop trying to change it.

that's cool then, that's what i'm saying. people should do their own thing, not base their decisions on 'hmmmm, would TANNER wear this?' and shit like that. when everybody watched the x-games pipe run by dumont in that 1piece, everybody was on ns posting about it, saying OMG I WANT THAT, I HAVE TO HAVE IT! OMG OGMOGMOGM.
it's retarded. do your own fuckin thing, and let the pros do theirs.

thank you very much, I wear my goggles because of wind and elements and I wear what I can find for a good price and that looks fine, I got a Salomon Jacket proform and I have Planet Earth Pants since I needed more than Siver's 5K Waterproof here on the EC. Too bad because I love Siver, also on a side note, I really don't like ski cargo pants at all, I hope they fade away

i'm not tryin to rag on anybody's style here. i'm just saying be yourselves. it's just nuts how so many people these days are like 'ok i need to buy the oakley anorak' or some fur puffy or whatever. just stick to your natural style, buy what you want, what you like, and if other people don't think it's 'cool'.. fuck 'em.

exactly, that's the way I want it and no more spin to win whirly bird helicopter type shit onto rails and boxes, also there is no need to spin more than a 9 because that means you are spinning too fast and unless it's over a 80+ ft. gap it's not acceptable.

Ok holy fucking shit that redic dude ^. I ski a shitload, an insane amount of snow, i hike for line's, i throw 9's over 45 footer's and i like to look good while doing it.. i love sliding rail's, if i could whirly bird onto rails i would do it all the time, in my one piece. why do you guys care so much about other poeple? just worry about yourself. Im a bit offended by this thread its pretty sad. I cannot wait to rock my one piece, new skis, new boot's next season but im not going out an insulting people for whatever they want to wear or ski on.

i think youre just upset youre stuck in the past. being gangst was so '96.
if you think skiings a joke now, wait till the scotty wittlake/corey smith trend hits skiing.

When it comes to lots of powder you won't see that much baggy clothes going on. CAUSE THEN YOUR BUTT WILL GET COLD AHAHAH SUCKERS. Same with long hair cause it gets all frosted and nasty and wet and nasty and frozen and nasty and depolarized and nasty except for Eric Pollard because he has a big helmet for his big hair/head.

fucking idiots! anthema i hear ya dog on the fact that MOST kids are more about there stezzin' than there skiin' but to some people if you look good you feel good and if you feel you ski good, thats where my shit comes from i ski better if i feel like i look pimp simple as that. and that oakley shit is wack, homie wants self expression? the new hot shit oakley suit is not they way to express your induviduality, i was kinda into the white oakley stuff last year then, i saw "the DUmom " rockin it.

Actually jonesy,
i get shit all the time because i buy pants that actually fit my waist-size. sure they look a little bit tight but i get sooo much shit for it. same with me wearing a North Face coat instead of some siver cartel or orage coat. I go into the park and people just laugh at me, then i throw a switch 7. what difference does it make that none of my clothes match or that im color-coordinated at all? Apparently you arent a good skier unless you have good clothes, and you cant ski park unless you are wearing some fucking huge pants that you cant ski in, and some fag bandanna drooping from your belt loop
Love-
Kevin

i don't think it's "style" that's turning into a big joke, it's the pursuit of style.

i never really understood this thread until now, and you're right people should just be how they are, i know kids who even try to change their style of skiing not just their clothes too which is ridiculous. i know my style will always be with baggier clothes and my knees always bent because its what comes natural to me but i say hell yeah to the kid throwing cab 7's in an older or tight suit or baggy stuff as long as its you.

cause they wear gangsta clothing and are cocky
they deserve to get hurt?
they can do what they want, they are superstars
why would u wish bad things on our progressors
nothing funny about that. and oh god forbid the day they end up getting trashed like JF.
cause they ain't progressing anymore.
what they do takes brains/guts/balls/style
and the style they want to project thats their own choice.
Stress will get you nowhere,
