Narrowing down my first board - Snowboarding Forum

wolfbaden6 · 02-17-2010, 09:29 PM

So I've come down to a few choices here:
Ride Fleetwood 165
Burton Cruzer 164 W
Burton Deuce 167 W
Rome Flag 163 or 168
K2 Podium 163

I'm 6'2", 250 lbs., size 13 boot. Any suggestions?

Are any of those boards not good for a beginner?

I would probably go with the K2 but the Ride looks pretty good. Just make it is definitely the wide version you have with size 13 feet. And none of the boards you have listed would be too difficult as a beginner to start riding on and they all leave room to progress on.
