I'll check these out. I understand your points. I've been riding a long time, just not a huge amount of runs per year. I've been riding for 13, going on 14 years (snowboard) and started skiing before that. I just never had the money to buy a lot of gear and go up to the mountain a lot. My first snowboarding outfit was PVC raingear that of course got torn quickly and had lots and lots of duct tape on it. Combine that with my red beard and wild hair and I was quite the abomonabile snowman freaking out the snowbunnies. :)
