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 :-)

Fartbag Etiquette

 Poster: A snowHead
Poster: A snowHead
Now having just taken delivery of a rather fetching vivid lime green Onsie I was wondering what the correct the correct etiquette is for wearing one.

I have in the past been a quietly spoke,very polite and considerate user of uplift and deferential on the piste taking care not to interfere with others enjoyment.
Clearly I cannot contine to use the hill in such a manner once I don my new pride and joy Toofy Grin Toofy Grin

Clearly in the past the owner of the rompersuit would have been required to make frequent references to how practical it was, lament the passing of straight skis and rear entry boots and accessorize with a bum bag.

More recently one would have had to affect an air of "having a laugh" fancy dress irony or simply be French.

I suspect however that you may have purchased a Nu Scandi, cutting edge of hip fartbag. I am unclear on the precise ettiquette as I don't believe Debrett's is up to speed. I suspect you get to be cooler than cool and, if you wish act like a total douche, or alternatively adopt a zen-like calm. Regardless someone, somewhere will still be sniggering wink

kevindonkleywood, the NuScandi (like it fatbob) fartbag can only be worn by skiers who ski lines so sick they can only be seen from a distance by other more human skiers. Examples are dropping down the Mallory/Eugster, scaring the wits out of the punters on the AdM cable. Anyone wearing it remotely near a piste will get the urine extracted, unless they're tucking down the mogul field switch just to get back to the lifts. Razz

Toofy Grin Toofy Grin you have me spot on ...fat balding.....working hard to get a really large beer belly to do the garment justice.

I thought I would stick to greens and blues but adopt a 'snowplough of death' weight as far back as possible.

I am touched by your Gok Wan'esque concerns for my sartorial elegance wink I shall endevour to fine a suitable bum bag and surely only a comedy hat is appropriate to complete the ensemble Very Happy

Fartbag with bumbag is a good start. Fluorescent ski poles, goggles and headband are a must along with white rear entry ski boots (think stormtrooper), a pair of old straight skis (ebay) and mittens. Ski as though you are emptying your bowels (back seat) and swear out loud in a thick English accent (North or south) every time you hit any sort of imperfection in the snow or make a turn. As with the Scouts/cubs the more badges/medals you have on the fartbag the better (e.g. SKGB purple heart). Talk it up in the bar and never forget that the UK is where skiing started and where the real soul of skiing resides. The local foreigners in France/Austria/Bansko etc will be in total awe of you and your command of the English language (as they don't speak it wot like we can), give it to 'em.

You will also need to aquire a Trophy Wife, who wears a belted fartbag, HUGE BEJEWELLED sunglasses and make up that has been thoughtfully applied with a trowel; nails should be replaced with HUGE claws and her sole purpose of going on a ski holiday must be to sit and drink cappuccino at the bottom of the slope (oh, and shop)

Surely a good quality fartbag from a quality fashion house would have pockets for the tiny yappy dog.

I do hope that a diamante encrusted elasticated belt of at least 8" width will surfice for my (I would hope Very Happy Very Happy surgically enhanced to the point of imbalance) Trophy wife.

I am lacking the knowledge of what the appropriate form of transport is here?

Don't forget to keep your lift pass on display at all times. Either the cheap retractable kind that flaps in your face while tucking on a green run, or

While we're on tucking - under no circumstances must you bend your knees. Straight legs, bend at the waist, poles at 45degrees - you do more damage that way.

You need a Chelsea tractor (bling SUV / 4x4), GB stickers (for GREAT BRITAIN), wide alloys wheels and performance summer tyres. Go faster driving gloves, a hat and a caravan complete the package.
