When i started snowboarding I bought the cheapest girls board and bindings i could find, about $400 for both (which in Australia is a bargain, new boards can cost up to $1000 AUD). I realised it actually does matter what board you have when I tried out my mates and made more progress in one day than i had all season on mine.
So im looking at buying a new board, and need some advice. Im only just starting park stuff, but was looking at the k2 vvv rocker so i can progress a bit more in that area. Im worried though that if i get bored/dont improve in the park, it wont be great for the icy/chopped up conditions that are usual in australia and new zealand. Ive heard that the reverse camber boards arent that good with grip and speed. Any opinions?
