The final thing to consider, and arguably most important, is breathe ability of your jacket. As we work and ride we create heat that translates into sweat. Of course a build up of sweat is a bad thing since it will allow cold to be conducted through to us so it must be dealt with. In order to deal with moisture we must use layers of clothing. The purpose of first layer is to pull moisture away from our skin but it must go somewhere. A breathable cloth will allow moisture that is pulled away from our skin to escape outside our jacket without letting water seep in.

One option that you may find when shopping for a snowboarding jacket is something called a shell. A shell is a relatively special purpose adaptation of snowboarding jacket in that it is intended for those who live in mild climates or who are not bothered by cold very much. A shell is a stripped down version of a full jacket in that it still provides wind and water protection but does not provide much, if any, climate protection. A shell is intended to be worn in relatively warm climates where rider may only need a little water proofing and will add their own insulating layers as needed.

After deciding amount of protection that you require you must then think about options available and if you want them. Things commonly available include removable hoods, over sized pockets for snacks and drinks, lift pass pocket, cooling vents, waist pull cords and reflective materials. Then of course you need to consider style of jacket if you haven't already decided.

Putting all of these elements together will ensure that you have a good jacket for all of your snowboarding needs. While you may not need to know all of details, being well informed will help you make a better decision that will enable you to enjoy snowboarding even more.

According to Boyle's law, while pressure of water increases as we go deeper volume of gases decrease. This way, when a diver goes deeper into water, air which might exist between his suit and his skin or into his mask would decrease and this could cause him to suffer a skin squeeze.

This way, skin squeeze can happen as a consequence of a change in volume in air enclosed against diver's skin. Most of times, when this happens at an area covered by diving suit it is called suit squeeze and usually happens to divers who are wearing a dry diving suit and it becomes tight around a specific skin area due to air volume reduction.
