before i start i want to emphisise that i am writing this because i am sick of people hating on skiers who hate on me and most of the other skiers who wear baggy clothing. and if you dont want to respond intellegantly then dont say anything.
i think that baggy cloths are not about the ganster image, they are truely that skier image. like most other sports, skiing has its reputation and its steriotypes. skiers who dress ganster are not trying to make a statement about whether they are ganstwer as much as they just dress how they are told to by the skiing industry. also, people ski how they find comfortable. i think that people who are prejudiced to the 'ganster image' are prejudiced to the majority of the industry, and i dont see how they call themselves true skiers. of corse, i think that if skiers started carrying guns around with them and stuff, that would be overdoing it, and i think that it is cool that there is diversity of lifestyles in the industry
