I've ridden in probably a dozen different brands of jacket and so far my favourite is the Nike Juniper Gore-Tex. Ridiculously good coat for the price. Fits big though. I'm 6'1 205 and the large still fits kinda baggy. The XL fits like most companies 3XL. I wore the XL when I was around 250 and it fit like a tent. But considering they go for like 120-250 on eBay that isn't bad at all for the amount of features and the quality of the coat compared to most companies Gore-Tex or equivalent stuff.

Yeah I friggin love that board... If they made a Custom X with the same topsheet I'd probably buy it. It's classic!

Yeah that sounds like a good idea. It's pretty cold there now.

What's the other options(s)?

Layers are always the best, I use a silk layer and long shirt over that, I have a mtn hardware compressor jacket for added warmth if I get really cold. My gore outer jacket has always kept me warm and dry.

Just bought this jacket from REI. I am a member and used my dividends and a coupon they sent. I ended up paying only 80 dollars for this jacket. What do you all think? Orage Shefford Insulated Jacket - Men's - 2011 Closeout - Free Shipping at REI-OUTLET.com I think I got an awesome deal. You all should check it out it seems like a great price.

P.S. Not crazy about the colors but I don't care if I am getting a great deal.
