Question

Does anyone know if the Firefly Beacon snowboard is any good? It sells at SportChek for $100.?

Answer 1

ive never heard of it but if it is only $100 then it is probably a plastic peice of c**p. save an extra $200 or buy a used board from a rental store, i got a decent board and bindings combo for only $250 my first year. trust me, if you are planning on boarding for a while then you should get a nice board. if your only going a few times then rent a quality setup for about thirty bucks for board/binding boots.

Answer 2

There's nothing wrong with it.  It'd be a great starter board and fun to have around if you're going to ride something that's going to possibly damage your board.

It's not terribly technical but it will be fun to ride it.

Answer 3

I bought one at sportcheck and its a pretty good snowboard for the price. You can't go wrong with it. I bought all firefly brand snowboard, boots and bindings because they were all on sale, plus I read a review of firefly snowboard on CBC-STREET CENTS and its got a very good review. heres the site
