I have two questions. I am about 6ft tall and 150 pounds, wondering to go medium or large, or basically does this thing fit loose or tight?And, I intend to use this for a mix of backpacking, climbing, and skiing. Is this a reasonable skiing shell or should I look elsewhere?

It's all shell and no insulation. I'm 6'4" 180 lbs and a large is the most dialed shell I've ever seen. It is an athletic fit like most arc'teryx clothing, but it still has room for a base and mid layer. I'd go medium unless you have real long arms and broad shoulders.
