After just getting back into park skiing I've noticeseen the whole baggy look. Is it a skier thing or does it have a purpose.

Also, like a solid 90% of the baggy gear riders struggle on all features

Not as popular as it used to be but it just a trend. Like the 80s 70s wear etc. just a trend set by someone. Baggy clothes 👊🏼

I'm not good enough yet to wear XXL T-shirts and have my pants around my thighs. Or anything ski related to make it look like I know what the fuck I'm doing

You funny! Baggy stuff is to slow you down! It's like a para-suit! More steeze with the breeze. You can style it and not get going too fast!
You trolling or what?

Baggies gear = more surface area covering your body= more warmth

so baggy and swaggy = warmth

I love most all of you dudes and gals too! That's why I do the Bachelor Parks Real Laps series. I used to think you "F"er's were nuts. Destroying skis on rails? Then I started checking things out more. I was impressed with the skills. Can't beat 'em, join 'em!
After 9 years of no jumping I am doing it again at 55 years old!
Take care Tuna!

The older locals at my hill wrote me off as a park skier because of my baggy clothes... Little did they know, I suck at park and I rip all-mountain. Really surprised some people.

It's more than a park thing. I feel good having bigger stuff all over the hill. Just more comfortable.

Its just so comfortable. You don't need to worry about your clothes restricting movement.

Don't be fooled. It's all about concealing the AKs and whatnot.
