No you didn’t, 45 degrees is steeper than any piste anywhere in the world [citation needed] and is seriously steep off piste teritory.
jfletch – it was a black, but sorry I didn’t have my clinometer with me – its a funny little story, thats all…
and…
Don’t see why not – I think it’s a rip off to buy a whole outfit for a weeks skiing, just to find the colour/fashion has changed the next year, and go thu it all again.
nobody is suggesting he should do that ?
It’s just warm and waterproof clothes FFS!
Which the Stealth certainly isn’t !
Mind you, one year I wore my best Henri-Lloyd yachtie jacket on a ski holiday, didn’t feel at all out of place on the pistes, until one day I fell on a 45 degree slope and took off down the mountain like I was on a sledge! Seems ‘real’ ski gear has a matt surface to slow you down in such circumstances whereas yachting oilies and presumably cycling waterproofs don’t!
I’ve got metal pins in my left shoulder due to being cleaned up by someone doing exactly that.
Also does that not completely contradict your earlier statement ?
nealglover – what posessed you to waste your time dissecting my post phrase by phrase I just don’t know, I’m really not worth it – honestly!
You guys need to lighten up a little – no really… its Chriiiiiistmaaaaaas! 😀
