What kind of snowboard/ bindings should i get?

Question

i'm looking for an intermediate all mountain women's board.

im 5'7 and ride at an intermediate level. i previously rode a 148 Morrow board. i ride midwest and colorado all mountain and am trying to ride more park.

i've had the burton g-twin and feelgood recommended to me and ive had the burton excapade bindings recomended for me.

any brands or specific board/ bindings you could suggest?

Answer 1

Burton is a fantastic choice...the toe strap is the signature of burton anymore and creates a much more comfortable fit for your boot...

However if you want to get away from Burton because everyone and their dog uses them I would recommend the Ride DX binding (again they offer the toe strap) or look at Technine bindings they are a fantastic binding that will last..

Answer 2

First, use a snowboard size calculator to give you a rough idea what your height, weight, and riding style should put you at for size:

I would suggest Rome, K2, Lib Tech, Gnu for freestyle boards.

For bindings, I like the Ride EX bindings. There are some good deals out there right now on some - check these out:
