What counts as a gaper gap?

In your opinion what would count as a gaper gap? Any space at all between helmet and goggles, just a tiny gap (2cm) or alot more?

Personally i think a small gap is acceptable. Anything more than 2 or 3 cm (1 inch for you yanks) is gaper.

gaps are steezy as long as your forehead is covered by a beanie

Gaper gap is skin showing. Most commonly, the gaper gap leads to the "neopolitan" sun burn— chocolate on the bottom, vanilla in the middle, strawberry on top.

-OR-

Another kind of gaper gap- when you jump over one or more gapers. This is the fun kind.

i dont have a pic of me doing it but i do have one of a snowboarder friend doing it. so thats sort of proof....i mean if a snowboarder can do it then i can obviously do it (being a skier)

put on all your ski stuff, look in the mirror, and measure your goggle gap

All the Asian skiers in NZ do this EVERY MORNING in the bathrooms before going out to ski.

No joke.
