Kinda gross for used pants that somebody would want them that badly. :eek:

2knees get ready to bust my lax player balls...

my HS lax program is one of the most well known in the country. when we used to go to lacrosse camps in Jr high and HS we would be able to sell our used lax shorts for upwards of $80. they used to be around $20 or so back then.

Grassi, that's really gross. :puke:

I mean, I know there are guys out there who are into sniffing panties and such. But used shorts being a hot commodity? Yuck!

i agree. but what did we care? we were in 8th grade and some dope was willing to give us 80 beans for used lax shorts.

What would be a good source for new bump pants? Is there one? $180 for used seems a bit ridiculous no matter how radical they might be. No desire to buy any, just curious seeing such high prices for used.

A good source for new bump pants would be to buy some regular ski pants and sew patches on. To my knowledge, no one is making bump pants anymore.

These ones are supposedly new.

Gah, got to Sundown a few minutes too late to boot up my laptop and ensure the purchase.

However,

Same guy as the other ones. Unfortunate thing is I won't be able to get them in time for Sugarbush, but should be able to pick 'em up before Sundown. If I decide they're acceptable, not sure if I like the orange or not.

Pick one of these up from backcountry.com and you'll be stylin' (they say it is more of a pumpkin orange than the picture shows):

Where is the best place to change into your tree skiing pants or groomed cruiser pants? Inquiring minds want to know? :wink:
Tree pants, I think that's obvious. The trees.

Groomed cruiser pants? Best place to change into those is the nursing home. Along with your diaper.

I think the color is rad, but I like orange....

I'll ask the dumb question:dunce:-- and I apologize if its answered in the thread and I missed it-- what makes patches or knee pads important for bump skiing other than "steaziness". Flame away..... but I simply must know...perhaps my bump struggles are due to my patchless pants :wink:? I thought I had narrowed the issues to either skis or bindings (having purchased both new short poles and better fitting boots this year). If I need new pants too, I will definitely have to get a better deal on Greg's cabrawlers....
