my thoughts exactly

i've got a pair on the tighter side as well as loose pair.

do what you want to do.
i skated in a jean skirt and high heels just to see what it felt like.
(it was difficult, by the way.)

my point is that not only snowboarding,
but life itself is often defined by the products of self expression.
enjoy yourself.


now setting aside the whole "go for it" vs. "that's lame" discussion,
thanks for the idea, ccortes182.

i remember stitching up everyday pants this way when i was heavily modifying clothes.
(doing the "punk" thing.. patches, spikes, mohawks, boots.. getting drunk and crusty.)
i wouldn't have thought to do that with snowboarding pants though.

doesn't that affect the weatherproofing capacity?

ps.. i used dental floss, but fishing line would work better.

I'm all for people dressing the way they want. I think it's cool that snowboarding fashion is so out there. My wife always buys snowboarding gear because skiing gear is so boring.

I think it would detract from the fun if you didn't have people out there dressed funny. Where else can people wear jester hats and look normal? Where else can you laugh at some teenager in soaking wet jeans trying to keep his pants up while he rides the rails? Don't you love seeing the old Japanese guy in the neon pink/blue/green/red/yellow/white ones-y rocking the slopes like a pro?

Wear your tight pants and have fun.
