What is a good snowboard for me?

Question

Hey guys....I have gone snowboarding about 5 times, using rental boards and I want to buy one now. I want an all mountain board, but more leaning towards freestlye..

I am 5'10" ...150 lbs

My shoe size is 11.5 (do i need a wide board?)

THANKS ALOT!

Answer 1

Given your height and weight your board size would be about 150 and with an 11.5 you are going to need a wide board. Use a snowboard size calculator to be sure:

I like Ride boards - the Ride Dose is a twin freestyle board with 0 setback that would be best in the park and work for all mountain:
