SETUP 101

A snowboard, boots and bindings are typically referred to as a “setup.” The purpose of this section is to provide you with the information you need to find your perfect setup.

HINTS

1) Try before you buy. Snowboarding is all about feel. It’ll take you a while to figure out your personal style, so rent, demo product and see what works for you.
2) Find a balance of quality and what you can afford, and you’ll be riding all season, skipping work and considering moving to the mountains for the winter. Go too cheap, and you might actually convince yourself skiing is more fun.
3) It’s ok to strap into your new setup and jump around the living room. We’ve all done it.
