so I rocked one this year because they make you ollie ten feet higher, and I got alot of flack for it from everyone mostly snowboarders but a few Skiers and Fruit booters, even this guy who has telly bindings on snow blades. I don't really care enough about what they say for it to affect whether I'll wear one or not, but in you folks opinion is it fucked up that I'm wearing "snowboardings only thing they have left" which I heard almost daily. sorry bout the slight repost.

Everyone takes things to seriously! People support Airblaster because it represents fun, and it supports their favourite riders. Also, Airblaster is not just leg bags. To say they're not a legitimate business is a lie... they make solid outerwear with 20 grand waterproofing and stuff. To sum it up, if you don't understand the premise of Airblaster, then Airblaster is not for you. Go huck.

PS: Dood this shit is sooo fucking gay liek whadda fucking fagget fuck!

well its quite simple really, it weights your weaker leg you pop off of, my left, so that when you pop the weight is to within grams of the other legs strength just by weight causing your skis to get "MAD" pop, that is a scientific term by the way. other than that they are a good place for keys, and chapstick, I dunno if you've ever landed on your keys but they can stab quite easily.

as for the kid that got way worked up, I know why airblaster was founded I also know as much as most consumers can that airblasters product is made from recycled/left over materials, and it is also a company that pays their workers fair wages, which goes above and beyond most major ski or snowboard apparel corporations. so if I'm gonna blow my money on stupid shit at least I'm helping pablo eat. so while I'm "repping" some stupid shit that represents the idea of fun, you should watch your blood pressure, you might burst a vessel getting worked up over a thread that was supposed to pass the time until snow falls.

most legit snowboarsers actually think airblaster leg bags are gay. they were cool like 2 years ago but they've been played out in the snowboard world, so naturally skiers are just starting to get into them. I remember reading something in freeskier a while back that basically said skiers jump on snowboard trends about 2 years after the trend's max popularity was reached, this is a good example of that theory.

im gonna have to call bs on that because there are a shit ton of "legit" snowboarders that rep airblaster. try skiing in oregon and you will see that. there may be some that think they are too cool for it and if thats the case then they can go on and do what ever the fuck they want. not everybody has to wear something in order for it to be cool.

allright, i guess its different in oregon, but all the snowboarders in ontario used to were them 2 years ago, but now you see like one guy, maybe. i just thought it was funny that in my opinion the trend among snowboarders dies, and like 2 years later skiing picks it up

skiers aren't just picking it up now, they've been rocking them for multiple years also. airblaster has even had a video of skiers on their website. (from BK here on NS)

airblaster is a cool company, run influential people who have the right idea. but leg bags are probably one of the worst ideas ever to come out of snowboarding. theres been a lot of bad, gimmicky products out there, but leg bags are at the top. just cuz travis parker is a snowboarder doesn't mean he cant produce a stupid, gimmicky product. seriously, $60 for a neon pocket. i think its a good signifier of whose a fuckin tool on the mtn.

LEG BAG R.I.P.

If you already have a Leg Bag, enjoy it, and don’t lose it! We are here to tell

you that the rumors are true: Airblaster has ceased production of Leg Bags!

For good. Whatever Leg Bags are out there from years past are all that

remain in existence. So get one if you can! Rest In Peace you beautiful

Legsessory.

it's so you can tell whether someone is goofy or regs.  if you're a skier, you can use it to show which way you spin

use the google kid.
and its fuck not FUQ


Honestly, who gives a fuck?

If someone wants to wear something they think is cool or trendy let them. Because shit would be lame if everyone wore the exact same stuff, its just another way of being unique different and trying to stand out. No reason to hate on it, its just a difference of opinion.
