Could you give me a little run down on the material(s)(PTFE fabric and Consoltex S3 Lite) and how water resistant would you say DWR is?

PTFE fabric is basically Gore-Tex Soft Shell, they just can't call it that because it's not a waterproof jacket. Consoltex S3 lite is a single weave one layer soft shell material, a lot like the Gamma LT material. Pretty wind resistant, super breathable, not too warm. And the DWR is probably the best in the industry. This jacket really is perfect for what they intend it for, backcountry skiing and boarding.
