Ski Trends

Over the years there have always been trends in skiing and everything else we do, but not all of it seems to stick in the culture. Some people might still say baggy outerwear looks weird even though its been popularised for a long time. Are there any new trends that you are starting to see or do on your mountain? This season i've seen a massive increase on hoods. Not like a jumper with a hood. Just a hood with a face mask attached. Personally i don't se the difference between just wearing a beanie and a balaclava or a face mask, but thats just my opinion heres the link to one if you haven't seen one already:

What are the new trends you're seeing and what are your thoughts. I'd like to see whats going on where.

Thanks, have a good one!

Even better is the trend where people unnecessarily make fun of new people trying to engage their community.

Come on Session, everyone had 10 posts at some time and wanted to talk about something on their mind.

OP already bought a saga suit for the aussie season. Now i can just sit back and wait for every negative person on NS to start hating.

Honestly if you don't like my threads i really don't care, thats not why i made it, but whats commenting some shitty stereotypical reaction that all the older members write really going to do. It just discourages newer skiers and members and thats now what our sport is about. If you don't like my threads just don't read them. Its as simple as that

clothes have started to actually fit. Ive been seeing more and more kids dressed like Robby Brown. Its rare that I see people skiing in hoodies that go down past their waist, let alone hoodies at all.
