Sweet, bomber jacket. Keeps the elements at bay. I appreciate the location and size of the pit zips - they're relatively accessible with a pack on. The pockets aren't as much pockets as they are vents. The hood fits well with or without a helmet. Has great arm articulation overhead. I would like to see a powderskirt option at least, because the waist hem doesn't stay as snug as I'd like. Sometimes I experience a draft, standing or crashing. I use it snowboarding and teleboarding in both the BC and resort. It keeps me comfortable in a wide range of conditions. My favorite part is that I can hike/perspire with vents open, and not be bothered by wind or snow. Aside from my minor gripes, I am most pleased with this jacket. Although pricey, it's great. I expect it to last for years, but only time will tell.
