i was looking at the burton shank denim snowboarding pants since i found them on sale. i looked around for reviews and such and i couldnt find anything about a powder skirt. do all their powder skirts zip on from a burton jacket?

Powder skirts are almost always on jackets. I found that the ones that I had on a pair of pants didnt work as well as one from a jacket anyways.

I've never even seen pants with a powder skirt before, how do they work?

Does it look something like this?

Look up the dc banshee pants, they have a powder skirt. By the way, if only my jacket has a powder skirt and it doesnt zip to my pants (since they are different brands) should I be ok if the conditions aren't severe?

if your jacket's powder skirt doesn't have any loops and the zipper doesn't mesh with your pants, you're screwed

but you'll be fine

the powder skirt has loops, it's a north face jacket. the pants are by burton and they have the zipper...i think the jacket's loops may fit with the beltloops on the pants but I won't know until they get here

loops go with loops

It like a powder skirt from a jacket but it goes upwards toward your belly.

I have never personally seen pants with a powder skirt...Kinda weird. I have seen the sag skirt thing like on the DC's for sagging which seems pretty retarded. I hardly ever use my powder skirt. On a day with pow i'll use the Volcom zip tech and it works great. On a normal day you don't really need it unless your sliding on your ass downhill IMO!
