oh, and to answer your question....a skier can not wear snowboard outerwear. You must be lying about wearing Burton pants. Outerwear made by snowboard compaines does not fit a skier. The way that the material is sewn is made to only fit a snowboarder, and no one else. So, it is neither legit, nor possible for a skier to wear burton, 686, analog, or any other snowboard brand for that matter. Gosh, what a stupid question.
