Hello, I am interested in this jacket mainly to use for skiing and snowboarding. I really like the goretex softshell material. I am 5'11" 127 lbs (57 kg) so pretty slim. I was thinking of choosing this vs the sabre sv only because I like the extra features and coverage.Although I am interested in the Stingray because it could fit me better (considering they do not have an xs in men's in these 2 jackets). Will the small for this jacket be to baggy? How does the small in the stingray compare considering the stingray is an athletic cut, would the crossbow fit to large on me?

THe crossbow and sabre both have a larger (looser) cut than the stingray. Also because they fit looser they are longer in the front by 1/2". It will really depend on how many layers you wear underneath. Of the 3 choices listed by you the Stingray will be the smallest fit. You really need to try on the jacket with a mid layer underneath to judge for yourself.
