mittens because they're so much warmer. I only go with gloves for warm weather, or if I'm in the pipe all day

i use gloves down to like 15 degrees, and colder and i break out the mitts. its worth it too cus you've got toasty fingers even if sometimes its a little harder to grab.

Same here. If it's above 10-15 degrees I wear gloves. Any colder and the cheap Gordini mittens come out and keep my hands very warm.

Gloves cos I never ski in minus a million degrees. And mitts make it look like you have no hands.

I am very surprised that so many people wear mitts. For those of you that do wear them, do they hinder you at all when skiing off piste and what not?? (I have never tried mittens)

You will feel akward at first. It takes some getting used to not being able to move your fingers apart much, but your hands will stay so warm it is worth it when it is really cold.
