well as far as 09 gear goes, the jps are pretty expensive for goggles. the jacket, on the other hand is pretty inexpensive considering quality, and the fact that its this years model

I might get one, looks sweet.  I want the blue and white but I'm worried about getting it dirty.  What do you guys think, will it get dirty fast or easily?

just be aware of potential stains and shit you will do fine. i had a complete white suit last year and i mad it through the season only washing it once. and its still white.

you just gotta be careful.

Thanks dude.  Yeah I'll have to be careful walking through the parking lot (considering the ice melts and then gets all muddy with the sand below it) and eating.  I'm always in a hurry when I eat, but sometimes I'll take my jacket off.  Thanks for the feedback.

I bought the TJ Pro in large blue/white.

When I saw the pictures of it from IF3 I was just like thats a sick jacket, so I got it.  A lot of people on NS might have it but I ski at Mountain Creek where there isn't a lot of freeskiers anyway so I'll probably be the only one there with it.  It was also really cheap and has some sick technical features.  I don't believe its being sold at any ski shops near me.

I live/ski in New Jersey (AKA the dirty jerz) so I realize it will get dirty from dirt and rail rust but whatever. I'm just gunna take it off to eat like always and be a little more careful with it but its also cheap so who cares

there's really nothing you can do about it. my white jacket from last year is trashed so i just had to lose it. my white pants are muddy as hell and there isn't any solution to it really...just gotta live it with. white gear was a mistake though, never again.

yea parking lots suck large.... just roll up the botton like 5 inces of your pants up when your walking through a parking lot/nasty areas and you wll be fine.

its all about staying aware and being careful with white suits. youll do fine.

My regular old $30 black pants aren't a thing I have to worry about.  Haha, got them when I was in Mammoth and they're surprisingly good.  Yeah I'll have to be real careful with the jacket too.
