    Skiing and Covid-19 masks

    What kind of masks do people plan on wearing while skiing? Are you going to leave it on full time or put it on while at the lifts and lodges? It's gonna be a annoying to take on/off if you are wearing a helmet.

      I'm gonna 3d print & glue some ears to the side of my helmet for ease of mask on/off.

        Gaiter alone isn’t going to do the job. Hate to say it.

              Doubled gaiter. I have a wind stop gaiter I thought might work but it is probably too impermeable to breath through.
              It will be on at the base area, in line, and if I am sharing a lift with anyone besides family.

                  It’s what I wore everyday and It’s what 50% of the resort employees were wearing this summer.

                    I get it. Take the advice of minimum wage employees over that of medical professionals.

                      Or a couple buttons sewn to some fabric on the helmet. No big deal if it means skiing

                            If masks work then why were so many prisoners released? Oh, masks don’t work? So what does it matter?

                              Lol when did this thread become a Trump Anti Science Convention...
                              Neck gaiters weren’t the only face coverings tested: in all 14 were analyzed, from N95s (unsurprisingly judged to be the most effective in containing COVID-19 spread) to bandanas (not much more effective then neck gaiters, according to the study).


                              Its 2020, its not "Gnar" to be an ignorant Covidiot

                              If I see anyone in a neck gaiter/buff I will not hesitate to publicly shame them in the lift line as a "Super Spreader". These animals must be stopped.
