I'm writing a blog on how skiing's freestyle silhouette has changed dramatically over time and it wouldn't be right to not include the people of NS in this project. What are your top fashion moments in skiing?

oldmanskiCan't forget the one-piece suit! I had a Columbia fitting to @BigPurpleSkiSuit name back in the early to mid 90's. I will have to find the photos and post them up. @DominatorJacques has a collection if I remember correctly.

Can’t believe I forgot the Helly Hansen Survival suit, legendary one piece from mid 2000s

You don’t need a 900$ jacket if you aren’t touring, and definitely not if you ski park lol wear a damn sweatshirt save yourself some money

not saying you "can't" i said you don't need it. I get why people pay 900 for a super light but super breathable jacket for touring. but not for hiking a tube. And if you buy cheap arc then you're just paying for the brand at that point
