Re:Ski Gloves : Skier Analysis

For you skiers that study Phrenology and hand lines,,,,, the picture of the gloves do reveal some aspects of the skier who used these gloves! As an example note that only the right glove has duct tape on the right thumb area! Why does that large right velcro on right glove seem to be on an agle? Then for the really observant! Why is the logo team on right glove gone?

Those gloves have hit a lot of bamboo. Have they won any big competitions ? Trencher

The person must be right-handed, thus the more wear and tear on the right glove. Perhaps hitting a few poles on the way down a race course? I am left-handed and tend to go through the left gloves first. Also they must put on their left glove first as the strap is put on more neatly whilst the right glove strap is put on by a gloved hand and thus not as neatly.

Hirsty, I think that's a good observation about the velcro strap. Trencher, I could watch your video of those great curves for hours! Your style is so flowing. :-) What was the temperature on the day they video was made? Was the snow springtime snow - these doesn't seem to be a lot of flying powder. So we are about to begin the sleepless nights now with the dawn of Pavel's quiz!! Mike :wink:

Again you all impress me with your keen observation skills. This was just a tune up since the very first two "test items" are pictures! You will really impress me if you get the first item. It all is in the angles! Yes they won some great battles! Bamboo? Did the splinters really show in the higher definition pictures? Problem with the skier who wins them,,is that the gloves will insist in being in front at all times!

Dave Mac, Now that question really surprises me! How did you know that! I viewed pictures over and over again and I can not see any "hints" of that? Have you been talking to my wife?

Aj, Have you seen the movie, "The Yellow Rolls"? If not ,,you should because I am thinking of writing a short story about these gloves as in the moviie! As if they were human and now they were "talking" about their lives with Pavel! Let me just say that they kept me warm at top of Mount Washington leanto in -30 weather! They slept in one of the finest inns at Deer Valley ski resort!They were great at holding a very hot coffee mug heated by an MSR flame! Yes they also protected me from those fast coming poles that love to hit your head/nose and other parts of your body! I will miss them! Yes they smell. A smell full of memories! If you have read some of my tips,,,you would know that smell since not only do I use baby powder for my boots but I also sprinkle a "dusting" in my gloves for that easy slide in!
