This is by far the best jacket I own. Excellent materials, great technical features, looks good as well.
If you are looking for all round ski shell this is the perfect fit. It has the same gortex grade as the alpha SV with the added value of a zipper going to the side to not bother your chin.
I'm 5f8", 170lb and small size fits just right with room for internal layers as well.
