Why Consider Purchasing a Snowboard

Investing in a snowboard could prove highly beneficial if you're set on frequent mountain trips. It allows you to select precisely the type of snowboard you desire. Ensuring the board's length and width fit your riding style significantly enhances your snowboarding adventure. Additionally, you can personalise the snowboard's graphic and design, an option unavailable with rentals.

How Do I Choose the Right Snowboard?

You have 4 snowboard categories to consider, each crafted for specific mountain terrains. There are also snowboards suitable for children, appropriately sized for them.

All Mountain Snowboards

These are suitable for various snow conditions and types of terrain. They provide excellent control and grip for carving on the piste, and are adept at managing some snow off the piste at the slopes' edges. An ideal choice for novices and versatile snowboarders.

Freeride Snowboards

These excel in deep powder yet can manage some firmer snow conditions. They often feature a directional shape for optimal floatation in deep snow. Powder snowboards are included in this category due to their many similar features.

Splitboards

Designed for off-piste snowboarding in the backcountry, splitboards divide into two skis for uphill ascent and reconnect for downhill descent. Special bindings are essential, intended only for skilled riders.

Freestyle Snowboards

Also referred to as park snowboards, they're crafted for enjoyment in the snowpark or jibbing alongside the piste. Another adaptable option, similar to all mountain snowboards, they're typically twin-tipped and short for a playful sensation.
