Love that idea. I may try it.
Five more states to go in the Continental USA. Hope to get there soon.

I would think you’d get tired of biting down on the mouthpiece but it’s worth trying. I think you’ll get more interesting looks if you go full snorkel though!

I like the full snorkel idea. Like the ones we had as kids. Had a little cage with a ping pong ball that sealed the hole when going underwater..... Seriously, Mike, your idea sounds great. Thinking out of the box is fun. Many, many.....many years ago I started skiing with my dads' WW2 lambs wool lined leather flight hat. The kind that had ear flaps that attached under the chin. It was a hoot to come flying down the slopes with those ear flaps flapping in the wind. I think I started a new fad on our local slopes..... Looked goofy but effective..... Jim

Good on you …. Thinking out of the Box is where I live, especially on the Spyders ……. I have a natural rabbit fur hat with ear muffs that I used to wear ( super warm ) ….. but now I'm main stream and wear a helmet ( for lots of reasons ) …. I usually wear a Balaclava under it so it's good in all ways..... When My Helmet arrived ( in Oct. ) I was very surprised how light weight it was …. it is a type certified by some ski assoc. , so I hope it works as designed …… Mike

Does work....
Gives a whole new meaning to the breath of life when you exhale into your jacket...and a little vaseline will help keep things from freezing to you. The snorkel mouth piece is a great idea....

Come ski out west, where we do have days we call snorkle days. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8GMDrv9R1pc

... Motorcycles are kind of like Baskin Robbins... You're looking at 31 flavors of ice cream, don't you kind of want to know what they all taste like?...

I don't know if I'd direct your breaths into your suit. I wouldn't want to introduce moisture under the jacket.

You're exactly right. Breathing into a jacket is not a good idea.
