Bindings/boots for little sister? - Snowboarding Forum

Zak · 08-20-2011, 12:56 AM

just wondering where i could get these for cheap.

they're for my little sister, who decided to switch to boarding from skiing

and she needs some equipment.

she won't know the difference in feel between freeride and freestyle bindings until long after she grows out of the bindings and the board.

we're probably going to get her some new equipment maybe next season, once she's learned the sport. right now she's going to use my old starter board, so it doesn't matter if she bangs it around a lot... probably worth a whole $5 anyway.

anyway, any suggestions of sites where i can get boots and/or bindings used or (really cheap) new, or specific brands that would be okay, would be greatly appreciated.

if your at all interested, ive got a couple pairs of slightly used boots and bindings for girls

not sure of her size, and without double checking, i think this is what i got:

almost new Roxy boots sz 7
almost new Roxy boots sz 6
few years old small Ride Vxn bindings sz small
almost new Ride Lxh bindings size small

Do you have a Play it Again Sports in your area? You may try them for inexpensive used stuff that's fairly decent.

Also GearTrade.com is pretty good for cheap gear. Heck, there's a pair of Malamutes on there for $55. Not that that helps you at all.

Check ebay for bindings. Also look into gear from last season at websites like rei.com, backcountry.com, dogfunk.com, trusnow.com. There are also great deals to be found at whiskeymilitia.com, you just have to pay attention.
