Do you wear a neckwarmer?

[skiNEwhere]

For me, I chose not to unless I literally have to to avoid frostbite. Call me stupid, call me ignorant, but I like just a little bit of my body to fell what the elements are actually like.

Taken at Mammoth in February of 2009. I don't know the temp, single digits not including 10-15 mph windchill maybe?

When the wind is kicking in and temperature is below 20 then I do, if is nice 30s kind of day then no.

If it's below 25, yes.

I grow a neck beard.

I grow a neck beard.

No neckwarmer and X 2 on the beard. Though I don't grow it, it is simply there as it has been 98% of my adult life. Also I am a firm believer in turtlenecks and jackets with high collars. I did break down and wear a scarf on the day we skied Jay with a -40 wind chill.

not on spring skiing days, but any other time if i don't have a neck warmer on, i'm miserable.

O no stef you are at post 666!!!

No neck warmer. If it's the low 20s I'll just zip my jacket up all the way. If it's in the teens or below then I'll wear one of those neoprene face masks and zip my jacket all the way up.

 

[gmcunni]

yes, if cold and windy or just really cold or just super windy. basically if my face is cold i'll use a neck warmer and pull it up to my nose.

I used to use a polar fleece one, more as a face warmer than a neck warmer. I now use a thin balaclava when needed. I've got a neoprene face mask for when it's brutal. I started skiing with a helmet last year. Everyone told me how warm they are. BS, I still wear my Mad Bomber rabbit fur hat when it's really cold. Much warmer than my helmet. It would probably help if I still had some of my own "fur" on top of my head, unfortunately it's been gone for years.

I noticed that like a second ago too. Not anymore!

I do wear one below 25 also below 15 I wear a balaclava. Used to use one of those neoprene things but they are more of a hassle. with the neck warmer I can lower and raise it at will.

If I'm cold- yes. If not, no.

I usually wear one if it is 25d or less. I do carry one above 25 in case the wind starts whipping up. A thick neck plus a fleece and/or turtle neck makes zipping the jacket up the the top a problem.

And I hear a lot of insults about Bogner jackets. If I need it just pull out the hood, it covers everything except my line of sight. It covers my neck & even my cheeks & nose. It opens up very easily since it's closed in front with velcro fastening allowing you to eat or drink on the lift if you want. No need for any other BS.

 

[Hawkshot99]

Never

 

[bvibert]

Only if it's really cold and zipping my jacket collar up all the way isn't cutting it.

 

[witch hobble]

Its in the gear bag all the time. Used more often now that Cannon is home base (sometimes my winter fur just doesn't cut it).

 

[Mullen]

Airhole facemask if it's really cold, wouldn't call it a neck warmer though.

Never wore a neckwarmer but just got tossed a free one at the MSP premier last week. Perhaps, this is the year.
