    Upper and Lower Body Protection for Freestyle Skiing?

    I got into freestyle skiing last year and got beat up from rails and jumps basically every time I went. I would have huge bruises on my hips, knees, tail bone, and I even bruised a few ribs and got the wind knocked out of me, which sucked. It really affected how much I was able to go skiing...

    Best Balaclava?

    So, I need a balaclava/facemask for this ski season and don't know what to get. I don't like ones that have wool or cotton material near the nose and mouth area, because they absorb everything and get soaked. I've been looking at the nike pro combat hyperwarm hydropull hood, dakine balaclava...
