I'm trying to decide between these and the BD Ultimates for skiing and mountaineering. Any suggestions? Also, is the lack of wrist strap on the BDs an issue?

Well maybe if you dump snow could Get in but they are the warmest made.I really don't feel the ultimates are worth the money . I have used both in very cold weather dan.try out these they are better then the ultimate, much better movement just as warm with a one hand cinch .Mountian Hardwears Habenero glove I have gone on a 7 mile hike in knee deep snow holding poles These are the best unknown gloves made . They are super cool looking also! I'm posting some pics sunday as im going out with those and the black diamonds for a test hike. With alot of other gear from backcountry I feel you need to take this stuffto the limits to give people a real honest feedback, not just taking a tent out and making a fire and pretty pics and saying it works.
