I feel as though nobody good goes skiing in a snowmobile jacket. What are your go-to gaper identifiers?

gaper gap is pretty much what started the term gaper, so i'd say the gap is the most revealing trademark

I thought it was the utterly confused and scared look on their face; hence, gaping.

Honestly, it's gotta be the sunglasses on and then their goggles on their helmet. Why even have goggles at that point?

na man, not joking.

look at the picture alone.
k2 rental skis....
scarf....

anyone that spends 45mins organizing their equipment into a briefcase instead of skiing, is a gaper.
its slightly better than the ski tote, slightly.

badassery is boots on feet, skis over shoulder, fuckin go.
not a briefcase.
sorry bud.

Tom Wallisch rocks the gap at times. Thus, your argument is invalid.

When people make a thread about gaper identifiers so that they know what not to do for next season is a pretty big gaper identifier.

In addition to snowmobile jackets I've seen a good number of rental helmets on backwards. Mostly older indian dudes, so I'm no even sure if that counts...
