That's a telling photo, Swing Beep. My buddy and I skied down under the chairlift at the end of season and collected 80 left hand gloves, only 2 or 3 right hand gloves.

Interesting Dave. I'm left handed, and would always remove my left hand glove to do anything on the lift.
This makes the lh glove ( in my case) the most likely to fall.

Does this mean L handed people are most clumsy (probably)
Or that more left handers ski (unlikely of course)

Or is it that folks think they are way above using the Idiot Strings that their Glove Mfr thoughtfully supplied :mrgreen:

Like the person I skied with in January who had no idea what they were for - and just tucked them out of the way.
:roll:

My idiot strings have saved me many times from a trip to the shop for new gloves.

What 'idiot' strings? I must be a 'double idiot' because I've never even noticed them :shock:

And what are you supposed to do with them, if you've got some?

Thanks Ian :D

Next time I'm ski-ing I will have a very careful look at my gloves, and if they have 'idiot' strings I will put my hands through them.

Mind you, I've never lost a glove yet :D

I find the place I'm most likely to lose my stuff is in the ski locker room, when I come in exhausted at the end of the day and put my gloves etc. on the bench whilst I take my ski boots off.

IMO anyone who needed idiot strings would not have the intelligence to know how to use them -) I of course do not have or need them 8)
