Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Ah yes! I actually have a very old, but very good, pair of Helly Hansen trousers which I bought half price 10 years ago and wear for boarding. They're really baggy and are often borrowed by our tubbier visitors. I couldn't begin to get the armoured knickers under my ski pants. If I have the right kind of music on, and sag around enough, I can really feel the part on the board. But that feeling soon passes, when I'm knackered after two easy runs and the shuffle is giving me Handel!

pam w, Have you not seen this years offering? - still blue and white, but the flowers have gone - def. still aimed at women, but almost heraldic in style this year. have a look at the Elan web site. I still don't think its as good as the grey, red and white, but it's a colossal improvement on the flowers.

Congrats on the weightloss Megamum!

I had the same problem with dramatically over-sized ski gear when I lost 3 stone in weight last year, but it's a nice problem to have.

My jacket was so stupidly baggy it went on eBay, and I invested in a lovely Tsunami black and white jacket.

I'm liking the red/black combo, you look great! I'm sure no-one will post any letters in you wink

Scarpa, Thank you, its not a point that is often raised, but I do feel that bright clothing comes into its own for that very reason. Out of choice I would wear black in other non-skiing situations, but somehow high-vis stuff seems the right thing to wear for sports esp. in potentially iffy conditions.

*IncogSkiSno*, OK I'll stick my hands up... I have white salopettes too... and a green and white jacket Embarassed In my defense, at least the green is a pretty lurid colour Toofy Grin

And Megamum, before you ask - it is possible... they're in their fourth season now and still shiny bright... I just have to be careful with the vin chaud... Laughing I was feeling lucky, so I got a white jacket last year too (although I wear it with black salopettes so I don't become completely invisible) Cool

VolklAttivaS5, It is, and the other colour on the jacket is brown, but I thought it was charcoal in the shop (to go with my charcoal salopettes) but when i got it home I realised my mistake, grr shop lighting rolling eyes so hence having to buy white salopettes as brown wouldn't go with my bright blue and white boots (again not my choice) Very Happy

Do guys have this problem, matching their gear or do they not particularly care, I suspect the latter ? Laughing

Schuss in Boots, the worst time is spring or when temperatures have dropped and you end up sking in slush and mud, but mine are still clean.

*IncogSkiSno*, oh believe me, I'm a total ponce when it comes to my gear...although I found a cure - which was to finally get my own boots professionally sized and fitted, meaning my Nordica Speedmachine 10s are perfect for me, but are red/white/black while the rest of my gear is absolutely not Smile

Schuss in Boots, Lor used to sport an all white combo with turquoise accents, but after two seasons the pants had become a muddy brown. So now she's got an all-brown combo instead! Smile

What I was pleased with is how the jacket and sallies seemed a fair match for my skis, and given that the jacket has grey detailing, on the zips for example, and so do the top coats on the skis my grey boots don't tie in too badly either Toofy Grin Am I glad I didn't blow on an orange helmet last year though Laughing Mind you I did go for orange gloves (2 pairs of!!) which I can't really wear with the new outfit and my other pair are dark blue and black (nice though, Rossignol Goretex) - I could go with those at a push I guess, but it only gives me one pair to wear unless I take my orange trimmed black Rossignols as spares. The trouble is you tend not to lose as much weight on the hands (though I have needed the strap on my watch altered)! so new gloves are less easy to justify, esp. when all the other pairs I own have only had around a weeks skiing each Embarassed

I had a choice of red or black for my jacket. Gothic tendencies were put aside as being too hot in the sun and looking too much like a rock if I knock myself out in off piste gullies.
