Everything You Need to Know about Snowboarding Gear

Are you planning a snowboard trip and need advice on some gear?

Or maybe it's time to upgrade your old stuff and you need a bit of information... either way this lens will help you learn everything there is to know about snowboarding gear.

We'll cover the following snowboarding gear: Snowboards, Snowboard Bindings, Snowboard Boots, Snowboard Pants and Jackets and much more.

Snowboards

  • Obviously when it comes to gear the snowboard is fairly important, but it's definitely not the MOST important! What kind of board you'll want to ride will vary a lot depending on what you plan on doing.

    If you want to shred the park a shorter, more flexible board will certainly suit you.

    Heading out for a huge pow day? The more surface area (ie.. bigger board) you've got the easier you'll stay afloat.

Snowboard Bindings

One of the great things about a snowboard is the fact that your feet remain attached to it at all times giving you ultimate control. But what is it that attaches your feet to this board? That's right-- snowboard bindings.

Just like the snowboard itself the bindings will vary depending largely on your riding style. There are all sorts of bindings out there ranging from SUPER stiff to extremely flexible.

Snowboard Boots

Of all of the equipment you'll be using on your snowboarding trip your boots are by far the most important. Nothing is worse than being out on the hill for a few hours and having achy feet because your footwear don't fit right.

I simply can NOT stress this enough: try on boots until you find a pair you are comfortable spending all day in-- it can either make or break your trip.

Snowboard Jackets

This should probably go without saying... but I'm going to mention it anyways; don't skimp on your jacket! The last thing you want is to be cold or wet while you're trying to enjoy a nice day out on the hill.

If you want to have a nice, enjoyable time on the hill I highly recommend a nice jacket. This of course depends highly on the weather conditions.

Do your research, check the weather before you head out and it will make your trip that much better.

Snowboard Pants

Right along with the snowboard jacket goes the pants. Nothing sucks more than getting a ton of snow in your pants! Make sure you're well prepared for the weather.
