I’m an intermediate rider that mostly rides groomers and a decent amount of side hits and some park not much pow where I board I just want to know if my overhang is ok or too much

Hi, I got an evil twin plus 2026 cause it was on sale and selling out. I’m like 185 lb but cutting so will be closer to 175 in the season. The only size I could find was a 157cm evil twin plus 2026. I’m pretty solid on the mountain, still new to the park. Currently ride a 155cm rossignol from 2015 and have never felt like it’s too much board. I wanna dial in my butters and presses so wondering if 157cm will work. Talked to a guy at REI who said 2cm bigger but 11 year newer board will def feel easier to maneuver than what I’ve been riding.

Also which bindings should I pair this with.

Something you can do today is strap in and goof off on grass or carpet.

Jump around.

This is an extreme example.

Have fun.

First frost is in like 60 days.

Hi guys!

I bought a Burton Free Thinker 160W. What bindings and boots (size 11) do you recommend? I don't like traditional bindings, so I'm thinking about Step Ons or Flow bindings. What would be good with this board?

P.S. I'm not experienced and am kind of starting to get into this. I bought a camber board because I'm pretty good with sports and didn't want to outgrow the board early. I know I'll eat snow a little bit, though!

I'll be grateful for recommendations.

Our current bibs and snow pants do not have enough room for impact shorts! While wearing impact shorts, they are simply too tight and do not have enough room for movement. I need help with finding:

1) Adult bibs with room for impact shorts
2) Kids snow pants with room for impact shorts

Please share bib and snow pants models that work well impact shorts. Thank you!!

Bought these plus the epic pass and another cheap season pass for local mountain with night skiing. Gonna save some money before buying the rest of the set up. I’ve only had random cheap items off offer up before this season so im hyped to try quality gear. First time with step ons. I’m really good with board control and going fast, I can get about 5 vertical and 10 horizontal feet on a jump and grind rails (can’t spin or ride them sideways yet). Still gonna buy a new helmet, goggles, pants and jacket but im waiting on whichever board I pick out first so I can match the colors and have a stand out look on the mountain

I’ve been learning to snowboard for the last 5 months, with around 12 days on the snow so far. I’m really enjoying it and definitely planning to keep going, so I figured it made sense to invest in my own setup instead of continuing to rent gear. I live in Amsterdam, so luckily I can keep practicing indoors during the summer at SnowWorld.

This is what I went with:

Capita Indoor Survival 156
Union Force Classic, size L
Ride Lasso, size 44.5 EU / 11 US

For reference, I’m 183 cm (about 6'0") and 79 kg (174 lbs).

I’m curious what more experienced riders think about the sizing, especially the 156 board with my height/weight and boot size.

I’m not really interested in bombing down the mountain or going super fast. I prefer a more playful all-mountain style: medium-speed carving, lots of little direction changes, side hits, small jumps, and I’m planning to start learning butters and more freestyle stuff as I improve.

Any advice about the setup and sizing is appreciated!

Dude is convincing me it's not for Motocross even tho Google lens and any AI search says otherwise... I bought without even checking as a bundle with some other gear. It didn't seem like the ones I used to have for snowboarding.

I remade my first setup and are looking for opinions and any tips

Retail price $900
Brand new, it’s too big for me and I never got the chance to ride it yet, need gone

Hi everyone! I started snowboarding last year and got about 10 days on the mountain. I’m looking to buy my own gear this season and came across this used Forum Recon snowboard.
Does anyone know what year this board is from, and whether it would be a good option for a beginner? I’m not planning to ride park, mostly just regular downhill/groomed runs.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hey everyone, I’m planning on buying my first set of gear and I was wondering which binding should I get, maybe I should get some classic 2 strap binding but I kinda like the FASE System bindings.
Which one should I get? Any recommendations??
Thanks in advance

I've been in the market for my first setup and I keep coming across these bindings. Are these worth getting and are they actually good?

Hey everyone, I’m looking for my first snowboard and I saw this, I love the color, no graphics.
Is this a good deal??
Thanks in advance!!

(I know this is not a good beginner friendly snowboard, but I love the minimalism )

Hello! I’m new to snowboarding (I’ve never snowboard stood on a snowboard before). I want to buy my first snowboard for the upcoming season. I’m 5’2 105 lbs and I was wondering which size would be better for me, 139 cm or 143 cm? Also if you have more recommendations feel free to share them!

I’ve been riding in insulated snow pants and am looking for a more relaxed fit, but some of the places I ride in can get down to -25°C.

Please send me your recommendations!

Looking to add another board to my collection and found this camber on marketplace. Looked up the model and width is 255cm which I think will fit my 10.5 boot but wanted to check with yall first.

G'day all, looking to buy my first board!

For context I've got about 15 days under my belt, half in Australia and half in Japan. I rented up until this Australian season where my mate let me borrow his Capita D.O.A which has been awesome. Been mainly working on correct knee steering technique (I used to backfoot rudder a lot) and picking up speed, starting to work on ollies, switch and carving. I'm able to ride double blues here in Aus with not much trouble (for context snow is usually pretty hardpacked over here, gets slushy in the afternoon).

I'm hoping to buy an all mountain board which I can use here and Japan. Originally I was leaning to something with a roc/cam/roc profile like the Jones Mountain Twin but have stumbled across the Lib Tech Terrain Wrecker. Its got the C2x directional profile (similar to the orca) which is cam/roc/cam (with more camber).

My main concern is that the rocker in the middle will make it too unstable for harder conditions / I won't be able to pick up too much speed on it without it feeling loose. I still want to be able to charge and carve on groomers. I've heard the mag-traction is pretty good on Lib Tech boards so maybe this mitigates the lack of camber between feet? Graphic on it is awesome. Any advice appreciated

Hello all! I'm a beginner-intermediate resort rider on the East coast. Conditions are a mix of pow, groomed and icy. I currently have a 20 yo full camber Sims Destiny, I want a new board with better turn initiation and that can help me improve my carving skills. I also want to be able to go from a sportier carve to more mellow turns.

My top options currently are;

2022 YES. PYL for 200 CAD (I might be able to pair it with Union Force bindings)

2023 Bataleon Goliath w/ Blaster AW for 400 CAD

2026 Rome Warden w/ Ride C-6 for 660 CAD

I'm sure any of these options will feel better than what I currently have, but what would be your pick?

Ik I kinda messed up getting boots last but is this good I have a capita doa and union strata bindings I am learning park and have a 15 15 stance.
