    Skiing in a kilt? mmmmmokay. I could be arm-twisted into it, but only if it were Spring skiing, and a sunny day to boot.

    Snowboarding? Not for all the rice in Japan! That guy in the photo is nuts! You'd HAVE to do it regimental to avoid soaking your underwear and being cold & uncomfortable all day... But by that, you'd be sitting your bare a** in the snow just to put on your bindings! (I've put my bindings on standing up before, but it can be a next-to impossible challenge if you don't have a nice, flat spot to do it)...

    Correction... Just noticed that this was a charity fundraiser. In THAT case, hell yeah I'd do it! Ski OR snowboard! Sign me up! (But I definitely won't be taking out my best kilt for something like this).... And as long as I can change back into normal winter wear after I slide down the hill once, it would be fine.

    Oh by the by:

    A piste is a marked ski run or path down a mountain for snow skiing, snowboarding, or other mountain sports. The term is European, from the French for trail or track, synonymous with trail, slope, or groomed run in North America.

    It must be. Even with the link, I am not seeing a kilted event.
