Ok so i know tall tees are a pretty controversial issue but what about tight pants? Why is it that moslty snowboarders where them? I've never seen a skier with skinny pants on other than racers wearing their stretchy unitards.  Is it just that snowboarders are a bunch of faries?

Sagbutt, baggyish at the thigh, tight at the shins, fitting snug (not tight tight) around the boots.-

im really confused about the tight pants skiing trend. how come tight pants kids always roll around doing gimmicky bonks and shifties almost exclusively

in skateboarding the trend came from raw real ass street skating because some kids were beginning to have a hard time identifying with the influx of fake style ghetto gown cross arms wizard trick dudes that were blowing up at the time. think like reynolds and herman and layton and shit, just raw gnarly skating

skiing its the polar opposite,
we got a bunch of gimmick kids putting on a hesh show and kids like casabon are emerging with raw tricks/styles like the reynolds era

moral is just ski however you wanna ski and dress however you wanna dress because its not breakdancing and wearing a kit you are hyped on always does feel good

he's better than brogan. Don't know why he didn't enter superunknown again this year? He's got so much style.

Looks like it's still a regional fashion thing... Some places you go you will see only tight pants, laughing at huge baller jackets, some other places you have the complete opposite, but around my area you really can see both gangstas and gipsys coexisting.

ps I like my tight pants and they don't squeeze my crotch.

Personally i grew up watching pollard so shiftys and smooth slow spins are what i have focused on the last 5 years. I love going fast through trees and tapping stuff on the way through and when i started riding park 3 years ago that just came naturally. I have noticed that trend with a couple people this year at my mountain who did a complete 180 on how they ride and look. Looks like the big trend went from 4bi9 to Traveling circus.

Funny thread, because here the other day I saw the A Day In The Life edit with Max Hill, and wanted to "copy" his style for a day. I usually ride pretty baggy with tech9 and stuff, like this:

http://vimeo.com/21719293

But then I tried tight: (second person in edit)

http://vimeo.com/22051507


I actually liked it, mostly because it was fun to try something different. I mean, there is good with some change sometimes :)
