What are the girl friends/wives riding these days? - Snowboarding Forum

I've been looking at new boards for my wife. I am curious to hear what other wives and girl friends are riding lately. Rocker/Camber, traditional camber, BTX, magnatraction? What are the gals sporting?

My girlfriend rides a 08 Burton Lux with 08 Flow Essence bindings.

Her sister rides a Sims with Sims bindings (I never bothered to check the model), but we bought her a 2010 Burton Feelgood ICS with Escapade EST bindings for X-mas. I would have ordered the V-Rocker, but they didn't have her size.

They aren't park riders though. They just like to hit the trails. They both have been riding for about 7 or 8 years.

I know, I know. Other great boards out there. But a Feelgood ICS and EST bindings for under $300? How could we resist?

My girl rides a 155 Bataleon Fun Kink. If I was picking a new board for her today I would get her into a 149 Capita Space Metal Fantasy FK

Bought my wife a '10 NS infinity-R + Ride Sigma.. it was a toss-up between that and a LT Be sweet.

Just bought my wife a 2010 NS Infinity-R. Her old board was a 2008 Burton Troop. Hoping to get her up to the mountain next weeekend to try it out!

my wife rocks a '08 Atomic Tika 140 with 2009 Flow Minx

Looking at a 138 Burton Social for her as she learns park.
