Snowboard weight - Snowboarding Forum

This is a pretty dumb question, but I have always been curious about this.

When a snowboard lists weight references is it talking about your weight when your naked? Your weight when you are in street clothes? Or your weight in full ski gear?

They list such a broad range of weights that I wouldn't even worry about it. As far as I'm concerned, I would go with your weight fully geared up. I mean, that's the weight your board is "seeing", right?

^This

They list a broad range anyway. It's mainly whatever tickles your pickle.

and the type of riding you do of course.
