I love this board. Im 6'4, 220lbs - went for the 172. So sick in powder and tears it up carving on groomers. Super stable at lightspeeds on groomers, too. Tail is poppy, feels good. A bit weird riding switch, of course (tail is over an inch narrower than the nose). The narrow tail makes it pretty easy to whip around, good for tight trees and whatnot. I absolutely love this board. Was my first btx/magne board. I dont think i'll ever ride anything without rocker again. hard to notice the magnetraction but i guess it works. Took about 3 runs to get used to the btx and after that its gravy. I bought a rider's choice 166wide to go with it, perfect 2 board quivver, wont need anything else.

gonna buy a second pair. They lock the heel and toe down while still having plenty of movement front to back (nose to tail). I think the v-strap needs 1 more notch in all the adjustments though.

I ride them everywhere. park to pow.

I bought brite white denim. The denim material is heavy/tough. By no means a packable jacket. Brite white might get dirty pretty fast but thats the cost of admission for a snow ninja (makes me want some white tigercamo pants). Good pockets. Love the collar, the lining is super soft, although i wish it went all through the hood. Pockets good, plenty internal for mp3, cell, etc. Love the zip-link to my pants. Lifetime Warranty. I'm 6'4 215lbs and decided to go with Large and it fits good plenty of room for layers. I dont like a lot of extra bulk, i like my shit to fit without a lot of baggy. Wore it on a sunny 33 degree day with just a tshirt underneath and was good (i'd rather be a little bit cold, than a little too warm and sweaty). I kinda miss wrist gaiters, but no big deal.

Wasnt impressed with the crowbars (pinched my nose, lenses costly). I love these soldiers though. Persimmon lens is pretty good, lots of contrast. I also bought a yellow lens for flat days, and it works ok but i now want to try the rose shade. LOng live Spy. I'll probably buy another pair with a mirrored bright light lens.
