Bio:
As in climbing, so in art, so in life. In all three the full spectrum of emotions come into play. At times there will be uncertainty, insecurity and fear. At other times there will be inspiration and things will flow effortlessly.
Ultimately it is amazing that we are here at all. The more time we spend expressing ourselves through actions and thoughts the more richly we have lived. Climbing and art are two of the greatest vehicles I have found to carry me this direction.

The North Face Sentinel Thermal Softshell Jacket - Men's
October 10, 2009
This is in a totally different category than the redpoint... since the redpoint is a puffy jacket with primaloft insulation it is for sure warmer, more wind & water resistant. Comfort is a personal thing, but I also choose the redpoint for this because of the lighter silky feel. Don't get me wrong I like the Sentinal, it will be more durable if you are scraping up against rocks all the time and still need a warm windproof layer. As far a size, I think you could go medium if you are only wearing a light layer underneath, but large if you are wearing a big hoodie or something.. hope this helps!

This is wind and water-proof... If you are looking for just wind check out the TNF Hydrogen which is just a super light wind-layer you can stuff in your pocket and bust out when it gets windy.
