"We're going to be goin' over in this clip, what makes a women's snowboard jacket. What makes a women's snowboard jacket is...has a lot to do with the women's figure. Tapered around the waist, accentuates the women's body as well as the length, the color, how it fits. There's a lot of fashion, there's a lot of function. Removable hoods, non-removable hoods, powder skirts that connect-snap to the pants, basically creating a one piece without looking like a one piece. Strategically taped seems as well as fully taped seems, again, that's the level of water-proofing, five thousand, ten thousand, fifteen thousand and twenty thousand on a jacket. This is thee amount of pressure it takes to push water through fabric. However you want to stay dry, choose a higher ranking on the MM. If you're not going to spend so much time on the hill, you can keep it economically viable, staying in the lower MM's, five thousand to ten thousand. It's very important to stay dry. Tapered seems, strategically taped seems. In that sense, the shoulders and the rest of all your seems are going to be a hundred percent dry."
