Once you become a life long skier you start to "collect" essential equipment! The first which we will not include in this list is the ski bag! You know the famous large bag with thousands of pockets, hundreds of zippers and at least a 25 straps.

Its what is in that bag that tells me what kind of skier you are!
A weekender!
A ski dilettante
A logo carrier
or a real skier!

Here is the list of the essentials.
1.Chapstick a must in all conditions
2.Gummy block and diamond burr stick
3.Ski glasses with 6 intergeable lenses
4.A sewing set with pins,needles,buttons,thread etc...
5.The last and the one article all serious skiers have in their bag,,,,,-the tool! You know that tool that makes; a knife,three types of screwdrivers,pliers, thorx screw,reamer etc...

Sorry have to add a very last one. Do not go away without it! Duct Tape!!!!



That is beside the;
3 pairs of ski gloves
4 pairs of socks
3 hats
2 turtle fur collars
2 ski pants
3 underwears
1 Ipod
1 water bottle
1 set of powder ribbons
baby powder
Goggle spray
hidden money
bag of nuts,raisens,dried banana,etc...
First aid bag
knive, fork, spoon
Thermos with coffee
Extra pole rings
mobile boot heaters

Just to mention a few "things" you should not have!

leather jacket
rabbit-fur hat

So what should a skier/boarder have in his/her pockets ?

Here's my list for a day at a real mountain resort

Basic multitool
Stick of sun block
chapstick
small diamond file
goggle cloth
hankies
whistle
power/granola bar
very small bottle of water
wallet

Sad to say on my local hill, I'm never more than five minutes away from the car. The interior of which resembles pavelski's bag for five months of the year.
