Help with boots? - Snowboarding Forum

09-22-2008, 11:40 AM

I am looking for my first set of snowboard boots. I am trying to decide between the Burton Moto, Burton Hail, or Forum Destroyer.

For a beginner snowboarder are the Hail and Destroyer a good fit (freestyle boot)?

Also, I have tried the Motos but not the Hails. Would I be the same size all burton boots?

Thanks for the help.

boots vary depending entirely on the person trying them on. you need to go into a good shop and get properly fitted for boots. Try on a ton of pairs and basically buy whichever pair fits you the best, regardless of price. buying boots online is a huge mistake, as a comfortable pair of boots that fits perfectly is the most important piece of equipment you will buy.
