After just getting back into park skiing I've noticeseen the whole baggy look. Is it a skier thing or does it have a purpose.

Also, like a solid 90% of the baggy gear riders struggle on all features

Not as popular as it used to be but it just a trend. Like the 80s 70s wear etc. just a trend set by someone. Baggy clothes 👊🏼

I'm not good enough yet to wear XXL T-shirts and have my pants around my thighs. Or anything ski related to make it look like I know what the fuck I'm doing

You funny! Baggy stuff is to slow you down! It's like a para-suit! More steeze with the breeze. You can style it and not get going too fast!
You trolling or what?

Baggies gear = more surface area covering your body= more warmth

so baggy and swaggy = warmth

The referenced post has been removed.


I love most all of you dudes and gals too! That's why I do the Bachelor Parks Real Laps series. I used to think you "F"er's were nuts. Destroying skis on rails? Then I started checking things out more. I was impressed with the skills. Can't beat 'em, join 'em!
After 9 years of no jumping I am doing it again at 55 years old!
Take care Tuna!

The older locals at my hill wrote me off as a park skier because of my baggy clothes... Little did they know, I suck at park and I rip all-mountain. Really surprised some people.

It's more than a park thing. I feel good having bigger stuff all over the hill. Just more comfortable.

Don't be fooled. It's all about concealing the AKs and whatnot.
