Snowboards- The Game of Extreme Guys
By Alevoor Rajagopal

Perhaps that brave heart, MJ Burchett, hadn't a clue when he put his life into risk and invented what is now known and celebrated as x-treme games. Way back in 1929 strapped a simple wooden plank to his feet and lurched forward to slide down snow clad hill. He probably couldn't help kick starting a new business in the snowboards arena.

Snowboarding gears and equipments are not hard to choose from if you are a pro. For the new comers it would not be an easy choice with so much to choose from. Of course, like all sincere beginners they would have read so much about how and what to buy and a few will also get their seniors/coaches to accompany them to the stores.

How to Buy Snowboard Gears

You are at the neighborhood specialty sports stores with a list of things to buy in your hand.

1. Snowboards

1. Bindings
2. Snowboard Bags
3. Snowboard bags etc

Clearly, for snowboards, your choices are

1. Burton Snowboards
2. Salomon Snowboards
3. Ride Snowboards
4. Kids Snowboards

Burton Snowboards are made for all mountain terrain and separately designed for men, women and kids with differing sizes and weights. Overall length is 158 to 167 CM long for adults with weight upto 90+ KGs. It is much the same for Salomon Snowboards but the nose curve is designed with females and beginners in mind. The energy distribution, the side boards and a bit smaller length help them till they grow in confidence.

Regardless of who rides, snowboards need to have these qualities:

1. Scientific edge cut and radius
2. Designed in bi-axial laminate
3. A 146- 158 CM binding stance for kids and adults respectively

If you are thrilled to snowboard on just anywhere, Burton snowboards are your choice, for their ruggedness. For bindings, check for heel and toe support. Shoe straps and the contoured bottom soles give slip protection. Ensure straps have buckles and not Velcro alone. Always buy from familiar stores and remember to ask for discounted rate.
