And the discussion morphs.? Tell me more about the CW-X.?

I actually ski with a pair of compression shorts (like you see people wearing under basketball trunks).? For me, they seem to be a tremendous aid in not having sore muscles the next day.? I think it helps circulate the blood and force it up out of the legs so the lactic acid doesn't build up and stay in the muscles (hot tub in the evening contributes more of the same effect).? I had actually considered the CW-X's last year, but didn't want a pair badly enough to pay list price and they never went on sale (and they wouldn't let me demo? ).? But I didn't realize the waist was a drawstring.? I was actually looking at the summer pair (whatever they call them) and figured to either add long-johns (smart wool blend, of course) when I needed more warmth or use the insulated ski pants instead f the shell..
