I'm trying to decide between the Fury SV and the stingray jacket? I know the Fury is a softshell and the stingray is more of a hardshell. Any feedback or suggestions.
Thanks

Go with the Fury! It's an awesome jacket. Soft and supple.

I second what Kretsky said although I'll throw in my own .02: the Fury is going to be a solid choice for cold, dry conditions and is also preferable if you are going to be doing much aerobic stuff since it will breathe better than the gore-Tex softshell material. That said and done the Stingray will be completely waterproof and it does have a low loft fleece bonded to the inside so it should be a little warmer than a standard hardshell. I own the Fury AR jacket and I have to admit that it is the ski jacket that I use the least - it just doesn't feel as warm to me as my hardshell jackets so I save it for late-season skiing. The Fury SV should be warmer but I've never used one so I cannot vouch for it. The Gore-Tex softshell stuff is nice and it's great for winter sports. The only downside to it in my opinion is that a gore softshell jacket is always going to be heavier than a pro shell jacket so it isn't as versatile.

It all depends on what you plan on using the jacket for. Fill us in a little bit more on where and how you'll be using it and I'm sure you'll get some great feedback and suggestions.
