I'm no expert here as I've only been snowboarding a few times, but the jacket seems fine. It also seems to be quite a popular choice on the slopes. It is pretty inexpensive in comparison to other brands, but it has so far held up well for me and has been comfortable. No complaints from me, but I haven't really compared it to other brands either.

I don't usually like fashion and trends, but it supposed to be something that creates a positive reaction when looked upon and not just bordom and indifference. Since I don't believe in the artificial seperation of ski and snowboarding so my candidates are spyder aspen/Sierra nevada, Helly Hansen's Granite and lynxz's 2-B jacket. I never used dare2be and can't help notice there is a big price differnece between my candidates and dare2be. I like to hear you opinion about this matter. thanks Snowcrazy ______________ rain is just a waste of a perfectly good snow! Hello alan,

I am researching for myself about snowboarding jackets because I want to buy a new one (I managed to tear my old Burton).

the reason I am writing this comment is to know how is the dare2be jacket after one year of use? the pro’s and con’s?

what I look in a jacket is:
1. designed by snowboarder (not just an office engineer with no real understanding).
2. comfortable and light as can be.
3. high quality materials and worksmanship, brand name is not enough (you can see the low to mid range of burton and a few others).
4. I don’t usually like fashion and trends, but it supposed to be something that creates a positive reaction when looked upon and not just bordom and indifference.

Since I don’t believe in the artificial seperation of ski and snowboarding so my candidates are spyder aspen/Sierra nevada, Helly Hansen’s Granite and lynxz’s 2-B jacket.
I never used dare2be and can’t help notice there is a big price differnece between my candidates and dare2be.
I like to hear you opinion about this matter.

thanks
