Noob with big feet needs a board - Snowboarding Forum

Guys, Great forum. I have been riding for a 6 year maybe 6-7 times a year. I never seemed to have the right board. I am 6'1, 195 lb and wear a size 12 boot.

I need a board and bindings. Not looking to spend more than $250 on a board. I do mostly downhill riding here in Colorado.

thanks

Oy, mate! Just pick ur'self up a wide board then righty'o? Rome is my recommendation. But other brands make them to. Sounds like your looking for one with a 26 or 27 cm waist and length could be around 160-165. Also, dont forget to wax that ass before you ride it!

Amen look for those wide boards. Rome makes a good boards and solid bindings. Idk what your binding sitch is but you might be able to hook yourself up with a package for under $250
