I don't have anysnowboarding stuff and I'm going snowboarding tommorow for the first time?

Question

I have a few questions about snowboarding.

Well I'm going tomorrow or my first time and I don't have any snowboarding items such as jackets and pants. I also don't know how to snowboard.

Do snowboarding and ski resorts provide jackets and pants for rentals? Also what should I do if I don't know how to snowboard?

Answer 1

no, resorts dont rent pants (lol) you need to buy them. if your on a budget try walmart or play it again sports, both have cheap prices on new snow pants and jackets.

to wear:

A long sleeve shirt (or under armour), sweatshirt, and a ski jacket.

long underwear (or sweatpants) and snowpants. wear thick socks so your feet dont freeze.

if you dont know how to snowboard definetely get snowboarding lessons and rent a board and boots(bindings come with board), lessons help out a ton and after 1-2 you should be able to get down blues or blacks. (first day i went i went down blacks). lessons are the only way to go, dont even think about trying to teach yourself.

besides that have fun, and dont get frustrated and dont quit. you'll get it eventually, it comes at different times for different people.

good luck, and have fun

Answer 2

i've never heard of jackets and pants for rent.. tj maxx and marshalls still have a few things left. also, make sure you take lessons, or else you'll be spending most of your day in the hospital

Answer 3

find an avid snowboarder and ask them what they know they ALWAYS help go on a begginer slope w/o jumps or obsticals good luck dude!
