Hi - i am looking for a go-to soft shell jacket for on mountain skiing. Is this it? Is the venta really that much more of a better option? I really like the scuba hood, but don't want to end up with a jacket i can't use for everday skiing. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Its a great all around jacket- The only issue i find is the front zipper is not the watertight vislon. SO it allows more air through it and is not waterproof. For a few extra bucks I would pick up the sabre SV jacket and have a fully waterproof breatheable jacket (along with a powderskirt)
