Why We Like The Airblaster Guide Shell
Wherever we slash powder, the Airblaster Guide Shell keeps us comfortably dry. The impermeable construction ensures there are no cracks for moisture to seep through, while the wrist gaiters and powder skirt shut out spray. On bootpacks, we open the bottom zip and underarm vents to let our building heat escape, and when we're blessed with a fresh powder dump, we cinch the hood over our head and cut fresh lines.

So, this jacket has a cool style, great fit in the body but one major problem: The sleeve length. I don’t have monkey arms but the sleeves were very short. Normally I wear a medium and I bought this in a medium. It fit me perfect everywhere with room for layering except the sleeve length. By comparison, I have a volcom jacket in medium and the sleeves are about 4” longer on that jacket. I really wanted to keep this, but functionally it will not work for me. With my arms extended straight out in front of me, it falls well short of my wrists. If you have t-Rex arms you’ll be fine.
