Answer 1

If you live in the UK you are best to buy abroad, it is much cheaper, and you can get good deals in the board shops if you buy the whole package.

If you really want to buy in the UK, you can check out your small local board shops as these are more likely to offer you a bigger discount, and the bonus from buying from a shop, rather than off ebay or internet, is that you can try out your boots, check out the flex of your board, and if you have big feet, maybe see about getting a wider board.

The staff should advise you about what is best for you height and weight and what kind of boarding you will be doing. If you don`t need the whole kit before you go abroad, wait and buy it all there, you will save a few hundred quid. :)

Answer 2

Try the-house.com they have pretty nice snowboard packages

Answer 3

Take a look on http://www.ebay.co.uk and you might get the equipment cheaper than anywhere else.
