who here skis in a one piece suit?


I'm thinking about trying it next year, but I feel like I might regret it.


Is it worth it?

North Face does some pretty alright looking ones where jacket and pants are different colours, so it doesn't actually look like a one piece. check out backcountry.com

The Heli Hanson Survival suit was straight up the coolest thing ever. 

We don't get enough snow or super cold weather here for me to invest in one, but no hate.

I think that would make you look like a turd on skis, and a slimey on at that because of the shiny coating on that one piece.

i rocked one lke two seasons ago. like others said, sooo worth it, ts warm and you dont get snow down your pants. if you get a plain one, you can rock a jersey over top it to mix it up a little

id recommend the north face cryptic one piece. you can unzip in the middle so that you can rock just the pants on the hotter days. burton does it too.

I saw this and immediately thought to myself "Hmmmmm...I've seen this somewhere before..." then it hit me like a Taco Bell Burrito, DOGMA!  One quick google images search later and WHAMMMMMY, there it was!

HAHAHAHA.  Jokes.  It's actually a sick suit.  No hate dude.  And to the guy who started the thread, as everyone has said, they are AMAZINGLY warm, they are baller as hell (if you get a cool one), and you get no snow in ya pants, AND (if you have the Salomon Conspiricy like I do) you can ride down and moon people with the Poo flap open!!!! hahaha...although, they only look good huge, but then if you try to ride with it unzipped, it acts like a parachute and pretty much limits speeds to that of a walking old lady...but the pros outweigh the cons, so get one!
