Can you break in your snowboard in terms of camber and flex?

Question

So I just bought a used 06/07 152 "el sined" sined snowboard and am wondering about its camber and flex. It hasn't been used much and it's a little on the stiff side, but the guy said it's because it needs to be broken in. And it doesn't have a whole lot of camber. So I'm wondering, does it really only need to be broken in? Does flexibility come with use?

Answer 1

Boards definately do not need to be 'broken in'. if this was a private sale, you're stuffed. If it was a shop, go back get a refund and use a reputable dealer in future.

Answer 2

Find that B@$+@rd and give him a lesson.

Answer 3

Never buy anything from that shop again.
