I bought my Beta AR about a month ago and couldn't be happier. The jacket is very light and seems virtually indestructible. I have used it several times now for skiing, both in-bounds and in the backcountry and it's proven to be everything that it claims. My initial hesitation on this jacket was the shorter "jacket" cut, since I was coming from a longer parka. But, I was pleasantly surprised by the extra length in the back, which honestly is where you need it most. So, it turned out fine in that department. Great pockets, great hood, great fit. Thanks for the great deal and awesome service.
