Extremely Well Constructed
This pack is bomb-proof! It's large enough to go light and fit water layers, snacks, and avalanche gear for a day in the back-country, yet small enough to ride the lift up to access back-country gates. The low profile hip-belt is also key for skiing and climbing! It's removable too!

love it
Only used a couple times but it worked great. Used for day hikes, it fit well I couldn't even tell I was wearing it

Exceeded expectations
I've gone through a lot of packs and I really like this one. Fits like a glove and you don't really feel it on your back....meaning it really becomes a part of you-which is important when snowboarding. I love the clean design which works for me in the snow. Zippers work effortlessly and I like how they have a longer grab point especially working with gloves on. The snowboard lock down straps really hold your board,it does not slide down and compresses the pack nicely. No bulk, just clean design, which is the best part. I use it for my photo equipment. I'm a photographer and I don't like photo packs on the mountain, but for on the mountain, I like mountaineering packs and this is perfect since I'm only into snowboarding. And another thing, it looks killer!

Very good
It's not ski season here yet, so I've only used it for photo equipment and in the city so far. I am 5' 6" and the 'Regular' is an excellent fit for me, almost custom-made. Pack sits flat on the back and keeps weight close to the body. Shoulder pads and back pad are typical arcteryx. Back pad is in two parts so it bends in the middle. I had concerns about the belt but it works with the way the lower part of the backpad is shaped and seems to be solid. I also like that it is removable for light city use. It's definitely not the same as the belt the RT series used to have, though. There is a surprising amount of pockets for arcteryx -- flat front pocket, a big lid pocket, and internal near-lid pocket, and a huge big bungee pocket for the shovel inside. The ski/board rentention system on the outside seems solid. A nice bonus for me is that it's perfect for carrying a larger tripod. A couple drawbacks. There is a hydration bladder setup, there is no water bottle pockets. I can see how it could be annoying for hiking/all-around. Also, you can't carry skis a-frame style. Overall, it should make a nice ski and travel pack for me.
