Covert vs Alias vs Outlaw... how do these packs ski when they're not entirely full? Any opinions on performance differences or are they primarily stylistic choices?

Personally, I don't like the alias. It is too tall and narrow, and just doesn't ride well. The covert (which I use) and the outlaw (which my wife uses) both pack well, and compress well, and ride in a more saggy, tear drop fashion, so the load is lower on your back and it doesn't get in the way of your head/noggin.
