Good call

Only Burton bindings will work with the ICS boards. Ideally you want the est to fully use the system.

Exact same fit, just with a hood.

This is the softest in the line so I would get the B-nice or something if you plan on something all mountain too. THis is a bomber rails and kicker board but not much else. Sorry no pics.

Last years helmet, there are only a few sizes left.

Yes, there is only a Small in Adult left.

Check the details, They will say if the jacket has zip in computability or not. THis one does not. If you are trying to zip this under your down, it is not likely your down has that option fo a second zipper anyways. But you can wear two jacket. If you like this softshell, why not get it. Yeah it is a second zipper, but the zip in featuer is way overrated. You really limit yourself.

It really depends on if the Hadron Collider can achieve a black hole or not.

In other words, no one knows, and whoever actually knows does not seem to be telling.

This is one layer, it does not flip inside out. This is the cheapest columbia on the site, it is not the best.
Far from goretex too. This is 3k waterproof. Technically if it is not 8k it cannot be called waterproof, so dont expect a lot out of this thing. Goretex is roughly 35k so just a bit better.

Yeah this is only water resistant, not waterproof. Most softshells are this way, but yeah for snow, it is not that big of a deal. It will allow you to breathe more than a shell if you are huffing in the pow, but on the heavy snow or rainy days, this will start to get wet.

Yes...?... I am not sure what your question is. That is the graphic of this years ski as far as I know.

G, I've owned this jacket for the past 3 years. It's my go to jacket for snowboarding and around town. It'll keep you dry in a blizzard. The ClimaPro is awesome. Probably would not recommend it for raingear, but I was on my butt for most of last season when I first started to snowboard. Never got cold or wet. I have longer arms too 35" and the large jacket fits me fine. Also, I can't tell you how many times the liner fleece has come in handy when your significant other forgets to dress for the occasion. My only gripe is that the snap-ins for the inside fleec on the sleeves are weak...they're just buttons sewn to the outer jacket on a slim piece of cloth so the cloth tears if you forget to unbutton your inner fleece before you remove it. nothing to do w/ performance. Too big of a jacket to throw a raincoat over, imo.

*I completely deleted Spencer's contribution. I'm sorry, Spence!

Yes, if you check the tech specs, it says there is pitzips in this one too.

There is last years model and this years in the mix. If you click on the option to choose size and color, you will see some are 249 and others are discounted. ANything discounted is last years.

As far as Difference, material is very similar, color is the biggest change on this guy.

Basically the sensor is blue and the ignitor is red. Pretty much similar in light transmission and reflectiveness.

I am 6 foot .5 inches. I fit a regular size - 6 foot bag without any problems. I would stick with a regular.

This all depends on how & what you sleep with, e.g. extra clothes, fuel canister, etc. For your size I'd order the regular. It has less volume to warm up.
