Whats a good snowboarding jacket? Pictures?

• Heyyyy im a girl and its my 7th or 8th year boarding and i cant find a good jacket for next season. Any suggestions?? O im 13

• Answer:

  There are many brands to choose from in the market. Beyond color and pattern, which will be up to your personal style, you'll want to take a look at some of the features each jacket will have. Most snowboard jackets will have a waterproof/breathability rating. These measure how well the garment repels water and lets moisture out. Anything around 5000/5000 will work well but if you do ride quite a bit I'd recommend going with at least a 10,000/10,000 rated jacket. Other features to look for that I find very useful will be wrist gaiters to keep the snow out, pit zips to cool you down on warmer days, and ample pockets for ipod etc, etc. Some good brands to consider that won't break the bank will be Sessions, Bonfire and DC.
