Whenever I spin or even when i'm riding switch my hood flaps right up and i can't see shit...is there anything that i can do to fix this other than obviously removing my hood or buying a new jacket? What have you guys done to fix this?

i've never had that problem and i think its cuz i wear a helmet, but if a helmet cramps ur style just tape it, if u wanna go upscale u can buy velcro strips, and sow/glue those on to ur hood and a corresponding spot on ur jacket

i liek the velcro idea, you could also use a couple safety pins.

Like a virgin on prom night

You can go on the bottom bunk and finish it yourself

queer eye for the straight guy, ski edition actually, they also told me to wax my skis against the grain for a smoother ride, and to always cover my pole for protection. also beaters go really well with stretch pants on those warm spring days

kid who said bobby pins has the right idea, you wont ever see those and its easy... or just let it go in your face and you'll be so cool when you land it you can call it a new trick, like 360 hood in face or suttin and u'll be in the xgames in no time

my hoodie does that when i ski switch so i just tuck the hood into my hoodie, works great.







I'll drive it untill the wheels fall off, then I'll buy new wheels!

Being out there skiing every day, good or bad, just playing around with friends, with no contests or filming- that is the real spirit of skiing for me. that is why i started skiing, and if i lose those moments that is what will make me stop skiing.
