Too bad the season is over

Just got the Viper and wish it was still snowing. Fit: I am 6'0" athletic build, Med. jacket is a great fit with longer arms that don't pull up. Really wide cuffs my scoop snow during wipe out... If you plan to layer a lot make sure the layers are thin as it can get tight high in the chest. Length is OK, about as short as you want to go. Not as many pockets as I had hoped. 2 Hand, one sleeve and one small inner for mp3/Phone/wallet. Mesh pit vents. Insulation, SURPRISE! This will be nice when the layers come off. The powder skirt is tight and has three snaps to mate with the loops on your H/H powder pants if you have them to keep the snow from forcing itself in (hopefully) when you mess up big time. The hood is not insulated for low bulk and fits over my helmet no problem. 4.5/5
