Buying a complete snowboard?

Question

i am 172cm, so people recommend me 155cm boards, and need help on buying what kind of board, and brand and binding.

i wear 9-9.5 size regular shoes.

What kind of board should i get-( i want a pretty flexible board.)

Do you know any brands of snowboards under $230 at 155cm?

Thanks!

Answer 1

see if you can find an older model Rome Artifact. A 2007 model should be in your price range and they're so buttery and flexy you can jib anything they are ridiculous  Rome is the sickest company out there right now. Burton is way too overpriced and they're a bunch of sellouts over there anyway.

Answer 2

the-house.com has the best deals you can find ANYWHERE

Answer 3

amen on the house.

go to your local ship to find boot size/ board size then buy from that store.

Answer 4

Most people find brands are based on personal preference... There are a lot of great brands and great boards out there. Keep in mind that prices generally reflect the brands. So everyone might tell you to get a Burton but you might not get an entire package, let alone a board, for your budget.

I'd say go to a local sports shop that sells a variety of boards, bindings, and boots and go from there. Off the top of my head, brands like Head, Ride, or Lamar might be in your budget.

Good luck and happy snowboarding!
