What are you like 70?
Why so down on the way people dress?
Why do you think they are stupid? Because they are different from you? Not crusty and old?
Dude.. take the walker and retire... really...

Waste my time on and old fu*k... never... too much snow to ride on to waste time on an old fart that has nothing better to do than make fun of the way people dress... Dude probably wears a fartbag(one piece)
OMG! You are so in my face with your young generation irreverence!
Listen-
I don't know what set you off so much, but you should learn to be less butthurt over the internet.
I am hardly old or out of touch.
I have many things better to do than 'make fun of how someone dresses.' Must've struck a nerve, eh?
Go back and look at the first post in this thread. It specifically mentions Wachusett. I am a Wachusett passholder and am well familiar with a certain demographic of their customer base. Do you think I genuinely wish ill on these kids? Hardly. But if one is intentionally compromising the safety function of their gear for fashion's sake, and is into some of the riskier elements of the sport, one is taking a stupid chance.

I think anyone is stupid when they wear cotton and are not dressed for the weather just as I would think they are stupid skiing without a helmet or with sunglasses and a cowboy when it is -10.

No doubt.. Like people that insist on wearing piercings on sub zero days
But to say "These are more or often than not people I wish weren't there anyway. Darwin works in mysterious ways..." is kind of lame to me...

No it just pops up when I post from my phone. That would be nice though!

The thing we forget is that not everyone can afford to purchase such single-purpose gear. And it's a lot more expensive than a knit hat. I'll never forget my roots, when I too wore jeans, didn't have a hood that was big enough to fit over the helmet (check that, we had no helmets), bought half-day tickets and had to rent because there was no way I could afford the equipment.
Full disclosure, I now own one of those neoprene things.

I'm sure it could be deleted. Apple did that to their stuff and that's the first thing I nuked.

If it bothers you so much I'll unchecked the box. Better?

I do not think this is a young person thing or a snowboarder thing - it is a park rat thing! Park twin tippers and snowboarders alike! personally, I could care less! No helmet or helmet on wrong it is their head!
What offends me more than anything are the people who think they own the resort or others who think they have something to prove by skiing/snowboarding at high speeds and come with in inches of you. Happened to my 11 year old this weekend! If I thought I would not get wrecked - I probably would kick out my ski in front of them!
