This jacket is perfect for my purposes. I ride 30ish times a year on groomers. I'm 5'7" 190lb and a medium fits perfectly. Since it's a shell I'm able to layer underneath as needed.It's got a neat inner/insulated phone pocket. The hood fits over my helmet and has three different adjustment cords. The pit zips are nice a big and have mesh in them.

Burton AK 2L GORE-TEX Cyclic Jacket is very lightweight and offer all the basic functionalities of a shell jacket. The cut is very stylish offering extra material on the tail and at the sleeves. This is an excellent jacket for the price but it has many other competing products in the same price range offering identical features or more.I really like the zippers and the well thought of pockets throughout the jacket. In my experience, Burton always deliver a high quality craftmanship and uses the right material for the activities.This jacket didn't come with hand gaiters that many other comparable jackets are now offering. This is the only reason why it didn't score a perfect 5 stars to me. Another minor thing would be the ak logo that could be a little bit more ...

This jacket has been made for backcountry and splitboarding! Multiple pockets, ultralight-weight and packable. And the little scrapper tucked in the sleeve is really handful. It definitely worths the price.

Awesome jacket! But what else can you expect from Burton's ak line? I got the orange as I like bright colors being on the mountain, for high visibility. It's super bright in the sun, and has a neon affect at night. The fit on the jacket is great, just the right amount of baggyness. I am 5'10" and bought a Medium. Also, the jacket is fairly warm for being a shell which is great for layering, as in you don't need too many. I don't like bulk while riding. I would give this jacket 6 stars, if only it had wrist gaiters/skirts! I would highly recommend this jacket if you are considering. It is on the pricey side, but the construction/material quality will last quite a few seasons, and the ak line colorways are the best in the industry (imo).
This jacket is great! It's the perfect shell and really held up in deep powder. This is my first AK jacket (I've owned Burton before) and I'm hooked. I tested it out for 5 continuous days at Whistler and had no negatives. I layered up because it was -14 degrees at the peak but I really love the features and style of this jacket. The white can get a little dirty but it cleaned off well. I would definitely recommend.
Amazing jacket. Love the fit a the feel. Lots of reviews say to size down because they run large, but I disagree. I Ike a roomy baggy feel with enough space to layer underneath. My only complaint would be that there are no wrist gators, which for the price seems odd.
Quality of the jacket is top notch. Wore this jacket during the arctic blast up at Big Sky, Montana. Had 1 layer and fleece vest under. This jacket was an excellent shell from the elements. Hopefully it will be lasting for some years to come.
I really enjoyed this jacket. It is a quiver of one for upper body regulation and keeping one dry. Worn on Sunrise Mountain in Arizona, during a bluebird day, in the early morning when it was icy and cold the zippers on the vents were closed and a mid layer was worn. Shortly, however after the start of the day the mid-layer was ditched and the vents were opened. It was worn over Burtons Helium Grid Mid Weight Base layer and was comfortable enough to wear in both hot and cold. One star taken away because when the hood cinch is pulled tight across the top the helmet, it pulls down on the helmet, making looking straight ahead a chore, even with the neck length chords at their longest. Besides this minor drawback, it is a little tight around the midsection for those ... MoreI really enjoyed this jacket. It is a quiver of one for upper body regulation and keeping one dry.

This is a one jacket that meets all needs.
Great jacket! At first, I was concerned about the size because it fits much looser than my previous jacket. But then I started to appreciate the looser fit as I used it. Now, I love this jacket and how well it works for snowboarding.
I love this jacket!! Actually, first I bought the "Swash" model with insulation in the torso. I loved that so much that I bought this model, "Cyclic" for warmer days since it's just a shell. And I loved that so much I bought the "Surgent" for just regular non snowboard life stuff. Burton's AK line is the greatest outerwear I've had in my 41 seasons of snowboarding. The articulation is perfect, at least for my body. The construction of the AK line is super tough, super comfortable and made to handle whatever weather comes it's way. Maybe not the tropics, they'd probably suck in the heat,,, but they do have huge armpit vents, so, maybe. Sure this jacket isn't even sort of cheap, but, if your wondering if this is worth the price,, it totally is. Buy it! And while ... MoreI love this jacket!!

And then get the step on set up cause that's a game changer.
