There are Three Different Types of Snowboards available on the market today: Freestyle, Freeride (All Mountain), and Alpine (Carving) Boards. Each board has a unique Construction Technique and Materials, Shape, Flex Pattern, and Size. The Type of Snowboard you ride should correspond to the Style of Riding that you like to do.

Buying a Snowboard is not as easy as it may seem. There are many inferior Types of Snowboards available in the market today. Thus, be extra careful in Selecting a Snowboard. What follows is a quick menu to our Snowboards Shop where you can choose from our extensive collection of Freestyle, Freeride (All Mountain), and Alpine (Carving) Boards. \

Snowboard Length
A good rule of thumb is that the board should stand between your chin and your nose when set on its tail.

Snowboard Width
Snowboard width is usually directly related to your foot size, you need a board wide enough so your heel and toes do not drag in the snow while performing a turn.

Snowboard Weight
A major factor in determing the correct board size also has to do with your weight. Riders who are heavy should look for boards that have a stiffer flex. Lighter riders will need a board with a softer flex.
