Choose a special board

 

Choose a model that specializes in one category.If you have the riding you want, this is a great riding support.Powder boards perform well in the powder area, but jibbing and flat tricks are difficult.And vice versa.It's a snowboard selection that allows you to choose a snowboard according to the condition and mood of the day, not the one you ride every day.If you're intermediate or above, you can play with your ideas outside of the board's strengths, such as jumping and half-pipes on a free-riding snowboard.
