New snowboard for this winter

Question

i got a couple questions.. im an intermediate rider and buyin my first stuff for this winter. i have a 11.5 foot size and figure i need a wide board. is the forum youngblood wide snowboard good? its $289 at www.the-house.com. also.. any suggestions on places to buy online for cheap?

Answer 1

I would go with the youngblood seeing as it is an all around freestyle board. The Burton king is a more all terrain board geared towards freestyle.  Go with the youngblood, its a fun poppy board.

Answer 2

Ha you're the same size as me. I ride a Lib Tech magna track wide 161

and I love that thing, my other board is a burton bullet 159 wide. The bullet is also a good board, and I think they go for about 300$ brand new.

Answer 3

on sierrasnowboard.com you can get a burton king for 180 it is a wide board and is good for freestyle too.  burton is the best snowboard maker so id say get a burton if you can

Answer 4
