This is the best top I have ever owned for taking care of moisture. I sweat like a pig on my backcountry ski tours and this top is the ticket.

I purchased these last season on the advice of my friend. He warned me that there is a steep learning curve to using them: remove snow and ice from binding and boots, making sure lever pulled all the way back, etc. He was right as I had trouble getting into them and keeping them on. But once you get dialed into them, they are fantastic. They are super lightweight and make climbing a dream. My only very small gripes are that the retention straps they give you are worthless and you have to release out of them to change to the climbing mode (only a problem on very short climbs). Overall I would highly recommend this binding system.
