^ Good advice. Layering is key. When you take off my snowboard gear and see my base layer, I look like a fairy or some kind of ballerina. However, I'm never wet. Feels really good on the hill. No stressing and worrying about moisture.

And to add, I think good snowboard pants are more important than a nice jacket. If your pants are soaked, you're stuck wearing them all the way home.

Investing big bucks on gear IS debatable. What's more important is knowing about the tech. My pants were $90, jacket was $80. Both 15K waterproof rated and tough. Just have to hunt down the deals.
