Find the Perfect Snowboard

There are so many types of snowboards available that it’s enough to make you do a 360 before you even suit up! Let’s break it down to make your decision less disorienting.

All-Mountain Snowboards

These are the best snowboards if you want to do everything on your board. They’re versatile and ride easily on varied terrains. They can handle groomed trails, powder, and anything in between. All-mountain snowboards are perfect for the rider who doesn’t want to be held back—with these, every inch of the mountain is yours to conquer!

Park and Pipe Snowboards

Park and pipe snowboards are ideal for those focusing on tricks and jumps. They have a twin-tip shape, making it easier to land smooth-as-butter jumps. If you’re looking for a new snowboard to show off your skills at the park, you won’t find a more lightweight, responsive board style to help you bring your A-game.

Freeride Snowboards

These snowboards are best for those who love the thrill of backcountry riding. Freeride snowboards have a design specifically engineered to tackle steep and challenging terrain. They provide the ultimate stability and control, allowing you to easily carve your own path.

Powder Snowboards

A powder snowboard will be your best friend if you’re taking on some deep and fluffy snow. These boards practically float on top of deep snow and have a wider nose to help you maneuver through it. Anyone who lives for going out after fresh snow will benefit from having a dedicated powder snowboard.

Key Features of Our Snowboards

If you want the best snowboarding experience possible, it’s essential to know about the different features to optimize your performance. Here’s what our experts recommend you consider before you buy.

Shape and Profile

Snowboards have varying shapes and profiles, each designed to fit a specific riding style. A good example would be directional boards, which are ideal for downhill riding, while twin-tip boards allow for riding in both directions. You can also find hybrid shapes that combine two or more styles to give you even more versatility.

Flex Ratings

Flex ratings indicate how stiff or soft snowboards feel while riding. Softer boards are easier to maneuver, so they’re perfect if you’re new to snowboarding or want more control for doing park tricks. 

Medium flex boards have a balance of performance and comfort. Stiffer boards are all about stability and are best suited for advanced riders who feel confident in their ability to ride in any terrain.

Materials

A board’s material plays an important role in how it performs. Poplar or bamboo cores are lightweight, and a lighter board means better responsiveness. High-quality topsheets and bases ensure your board can withstand whatever you put it through on the slopes, so you can ride as long as you’d like. 

Ask ERIK’s experts about snowboard materials so you can select the right one for you.

Sizing

Choosing the right size snowboard is crucial for optimizing performance. Factors such as height, weight, and riding style all play a role in determining the best fit. As a general rule, your snowboard should reach somewhere between your chin and nose when standing on its end.

Frequently Asked Questions About Snowboards

Do you still have some questions about snowboards? We have you covered with some quick FAQs for reference!

How Do I Choose the Right Snowboard Size?

A general guideline is to choose a snowboard that reaches between your chin and nose when standing upright. But the “right” size will depend on other factors, like your riding style or how much you weigh.

What’s the Difference Between Camber and Rocker Profiles?

Camber profiles have an upward curve in the center, providing stability and edge control, while rocker profiles have a downward curve, allowing for easier turns and a looser feel. Hybrid profiles are the best of both worlds!

Are Snowboards Unisex?

Many snowboards are unisex, although some brands might offer specific models better suited to different body types and riding styles, so we separate our selection based on gender.

What Are the Best Snowboards for Beginners?

Beginners should look for a more forgiving, softer board that focuses on stability. This will make the learning experience much easier and more enjoyable.
