Bought Two - One For Wife, One For Me

Great pack - even for those of us that just stay in bounds 99% of the time. Holds just enough gear for keeping extra layers and a lunch for a day on the slopes. I haven't had a chance to test the diagonal ski carry, I only hike when the conditions warrant.
The tube is freeze-resistant, but certainly not freeze proof on the coldest days or during night skiing.
I had an issue where the tube would disconnect from the reservoir - Dakine sent me a replacement reservoir and tube under warranty without issue.
