Their stuff is so sick! Best material out there IMO.

They have a sale on 2011 stuff that's over %50 off! I'm going to buy this when I get some more cash. http://store.phunkshunwear.com/products/productdetail/2011+Spring+Trunk/part_number=FMp11SLt/13003.0.1.1.1025685.0.0.0.0?pp=50&

wear a beanie and a neck warmer, so you can pull it down if it gets too wet or if you want to properly breathe, its the best combo

balaclava is seriously the best

neck warmer/tube style masks are good when you first put them on. they you pull it down after you get a bit too warm, and it slips out and you have to take everything off to get steezy again.

balaclava holds that shit up for you, you just slide up and down as you please!

ECs are really good but I would also recommend again Phunkshun Wear ones, they are warm in winter but still very breathable, cheap, steezy and IMO the best material.

I ski with a Bula balaclava, BUT I honestly wouldnt mind getting my hipster on and buying a scarf. Definatley like the look:



Looks kind of cool flying all over the place. I'm also super mad jelly of that mini pipe.

i think the tubes are the best. i pull the back up higher and i never have any problems with it falling down. i can actually pull pine down under my mouth without the back falling down, so i can talk then shred.

Not necessarily bra, my BULA neck warmer holds up fine. But yeah balaclavas are dope too.
