Buying a snowboard (beginners)
When it comes to picking your board what should you look for? Most people as beginner or intermediate snowboarders don't have the slightest clue about edges, cores, length, flex, pop etc... The advice that would be most suitable to beginners that I can give would be to pick a wide board that meets your eyes in height when stood up vertically. Don't be afraid to ask for some help!! Try and get to a nearby Snowboard shop where they can help you get set up. Don't try to get the nicest board around cause until you learn how to control all the things it offers there’s no point it paying for it!! Finally don't look for a board you aren't going to want to scratch up. If you're starting out it's going to happen, just deal with it. Companies who offer good beginner/intermediate boards are: Firefly, Lamar, Option, Nitro or Rossignol. I'd stick to those for beginners so check out their sites!!
