What's the difference between this and the theta sv? If I'm going to put down this much cash, seems I should get the best one. I'l looking for a crazy tough jacket that'll live up to skiing, downpours and mountain life. Anything will help. Thanks!

Sabre SV is your jacket then. It is geared towards mountain sports. They are both fully waterproof/breatheable practically bombproof jackets. The Sabres front pockets are larger and it has a powder skirt. It also has a light fleece backing which adds a touch of warmth and softness. The only downside to the jacket is the fleece, it tends to be too warm to wear in the summer. This is where the Theta SV has an advantage. The other advantage to the Theta is the front zipper is much nicer. Overall - save yourself $75 on the Sabre and get yourself a nice fleece or softshell with the money saved
