"Sick Jacket"
Pros: windproof, waterproof, warm
Cons: no inside pockets,
This jacket is great. I recently wore it on a day that started out with rain at the base of the mountain and turned into heavy snowfall with major wind gusts. I was warm and dry all day. The jacket breathes amazingly well. I didn't need to vent at all. There is plenty of room to layer. If you own burton pants, the zip to pants interface works really well. The ak product line may be expensive, but in my opinion it's definitely worth it. The cyclic may be the entry level jacket for the ak line, but it performs better than any other jacket I've owned.

"Great loose shell with AK performance"
Pros: uber-waterproof, breathable, comfortable
Cons: could use a few more pockets,
As the most affordable member of the Burton AK Goretex jacket line, this represents a great value if their fit works for you. It works for me; I'm 5' 11 with long arms, and a L in this jacket feels like it was tailored for me. I do like the plain style, but overall I prefer the Stagger for the pockets.

"Awesome"
Pros: Keeps you dry, Keeps you warm, Lightweight
Cons: Expensive,
This jacket is really lightweight but impervious to the elements. I've worn this in freezing rain and wind when they were about to close the lifts and nobody else was stupid enough to be out. It still kept me warm and dry (although the visibility was still garbage). I like the style too.

"Great Jacket"
Pros: Waterproof, High Quality, Zip-to-pants Interface
Cons:
I knew from my last Burton jacket purchase to get a size smaller than I usually wear. I'm 5'11, 180lbs and normally wear a large, but got a Large Burton Ak 2L Turbine Jacket and was swimming in it, so the Medium was perfect for this jacket. It is a great shell, and works well with layering, even with the medium. It is stylish, and very breathable so I have hours of comfort on the mountain and dont have to worry about being cold and wet. Definitely recommend getting a size smaller than you are perhaps used to.

"Burton AK 2L Cyclic Snowboard Jacket"
Pros: Tech, Super lightweight,
Cons:
Got this for my boyfriend and it's awesome. He wears it everywhere. Super lightweight. The akookoo sorcerer design is so unique I can spot him on the mountain with ease.
