Indiana board suggestion? - Snowboarding Forum

Skier's Edge · 11-07-2012, 12:32 PM

Looking for a new board this season to handle conditions mostly in Indiana and the Midwest and can go from the peak to the park. Depending on the boot I'll be about a 10.5 or 11.

Also looking for bindings & boots so need some good options for those too!

Any suggestions?

Good to see some fellow hoosiers on here! I bought a Neversummer Evo last year and love it. Its great in the park but does all mountain good to. For bindings check out the rome boss 390's burton cartels and burton malavitas.
I normally ride at bittersweet,Michigan or Mad River Mtn. OH.

STOKED!

Please post up your weight as well. Weight and foot size are the (most important) specs that will determine the correct board for you. Do you have you eyes on any particular brands/models yet?

Support midwest snowboarding!

Throwback for allmountain crusing, or Mystick if you're more in to park/jibbing.

Made in the USA, by real midwesterners, in the midwest

Adding to Hot-Ice's suggestions

Union Contact Pro/Union Atlas/Union Force
Maybe even flows if your runs are really short...

As far as boots go, try on as many as you possibly can. The most comfy is the one you should buy.

So far I have been looking a lot at the Burton Process Flying V and the Forum Youngblood. Bindings I've been really interested in something like the Malavitas or Cartel, maybe a Flux DS30 or RK30
