Hmmm, Neon clobber, Onesies's (aka fartbags) and strong patterns. European brands, usually only successfully worn by the young and seriously good slider.
The rest end up being ridiculed on pages like this...

Then, like one or two of the site regulars here, you should get yourself a sponsor, who will provide your gear, or hardware or both.

Luminous like these, or do you want to go brighter?

No, it's not me.

The high vis green/yellow has been slow to catch on in the States, so the kid probably didn't realise he looked like a road worker.

Usually trends come across the Atlantic from the US to Europe.... Sometimes we take revenge :lol:

So, Trencher, when will we see you sporting a pair of hi- vis ski trousers in a nice eye watering colour )

It's his mums idea of ski wear, but she lives in the Bronx.

The skis don't know if they are coming or going. And neither does.....

The sticks are longer than the skis. Thats OK, cos the skis fit into his suitcase anyway.

All that gear, and he is only a corporal?

Trencher, if you waited all these years to display this little gem, what other little shockers await? :shock:

The difference between the 2 pics is that Bandit displays (by her stance) the ability to use the twin tips and her bindings are mounted in (what I would call) a sensible position. :D

Yeah, maybe you do, but surely that feeling was not generated on this thread???

I NEVER feel the need to buy ski gear. I still have those damn skin tight red racing trousers that were a whim. Thought at one stage Tony would go for them, but his sartorial ambitions are just too low.

Lordy Miss Claudy, Rob C, I do believe that your prayers have been answered. In the event that you do buy these, please don't come to Niederau.

These trousers are meant to be worn in steep deep coulouirs, with high avalanche warning. In the event of you getting buried under 6 ft of snow, t'would be a piece of cake to find you. The likelihood is that the snow would melt around you.

In the summer, you could wear them at a disco, in the same way that Billy Connelly demonstrated Collostomy trousers, Swish, Swish.

After a full life of skiing, you could pass away happily, safe in the knowledge that your funeral wear would surpass that of Michael Jackson.

As a back-up, do you want to buy a pair of red skin tight racing trousers, you can see whether dressed to the left or the right, I absolutely guarantee an increase to your piste speed, if only to keep ahead of the women!

Not sure if you can get these in the UK. Lots of places to buy them in the US. Some may ship international.

Those sallos are ridiculous.
I dont understand the need for all the bright colours.

All the bright colours do is make you look even more of an arse when you take a nice tumble which trying to show off.

The onlys one i do agree with are Red ones, because Red means danger and you know to stay away from these silly people wearing silly coloured gear.

I back off to sleep now!!!
