Fagbag? That's what we used to call book bags when I was in high school. We didn't have cool daypacks for books in my day.

I guess what's old is sometimes new.

Where do you use that term in skiing?

I'm not making fun of them, but maybe its in reference to fanny packs?

I guess that would be oddly appropriate.

I think it's slang for the one-piece, AKA romper suit... :lol:

There are regular Blue mountain season passholders with top of the line skis who still insist on wearing their neon late 80s/early 90s one piece on a regular basis. On a typical day there..someone is wearing every jacket I've ever owned...

In further lingo what about the term Joey..

Joey:Typically from NJ or Staten Island who goes up to Killington or Hunter with his friends...typical quote from Joey..

"Hey watch me hit that jump..and Joey in Giants Jacket in a power wedge goes right for the kicker and does a half spread eagle..then catches an edge..then tells everybody in the bar later on that he did a 360 Iron Cross..lol

Joeys exist everywhere..

Facemask Freddy: The dude who always skis in a facemask..even if it's 50 degrees out because it's part of his skiing wardrobe..

Stretchpants Sue: Skis in Stretchpants tucked into circa 1991 Rear Entrys and 185 length K2 skis from the Reagan Administration..is always hanging out with some dude with a mohawk...uke:

I always thought those were called fartbags. Fagbag is usually used in connection with a fannypack, as Grassi pointed out.
