The GF and I are planning to buy new gear for this season but haven't been snowboarding these past two seasons so we kind of forgot how the conditions were haha

What do you guys recommend for jackets? I've seen some pretty good deals on the-house.com for shells/insulated jackets about $80-100 but am wondering if we need something thicker like this one :On Sale Burton Restricted Durban Snowboard Jacket Redical up to 45% off
My GF also has her eye on this jacket at Winners for $130: On Sale Burton Sage Down Snowboard Jacket Vain - Womens up to 40% off

Are they a little too warm if we're just gonna go to Cypress most of the time? We are planning on going to Whistler and Sun Peaks as well this season.

Should we go for lighter jackets like the Burton Arctic/Traction?
