  1. www.the-house.com has a lot of good snowboard clothing for 50-70% off.  

    Keep in mind when buying snowboard clothing, you need something that will withstand the weather.  Cheaper stuff usually tends to leave you wet and cold at the end of the day.  

    Burton is a good brand, but not near the best.  It's something a lot of amateur riders buy because of the name and they end up spending way more money than the clothes are worth.  The only good thing I see about burton is that their jackets come with all of the extra stuff instead of the essentials.    

    If you want a good brand, try to find a Rome jacket.  They're designed by people who used to work at Burton.  

    Lastly, if you spend the money you're talking about on a jacket, it will more than likely be non-insulated and you will freeze your butt off.  Make sure when looking at a jacket:  

    Polyurithane(sp?) covered (waterproof)

    Insulated

    Zippered pockets (don't want ur stuff falling out)

    Waist gaiters

    Wrist gaiters

    Those are the only things you really need.


  2. well. . .i dunno where norwich is but they have cheap stuff at  "dunhams discount sports" but if not try R.E.I it has toppa thie line snow gear for a high price but theres pften sale items : )

    if those shops arent around try there sites.
