Hi my name is rubin and I want to get into snowboarding this year. I am looking for a board good for a beginner to intermediate because I don't want to buy a new board once I get better I am also looking for boots and bindings. I am willing to spend about 300 to 400 on board and another 200 on boots and bindings please help. I am 5'9 and 170 lbs shoe size 11

Spend good money on boots...then look on craigslist or Kijiji(if you live in Canada I swear by kijiji) or any used sporting goods place for the board and bindings ....something all-mountain and not too specific should work unless your goal is to be a park star..you're learning so you'll beat this board up anyways, you dont need anything top of the line...upgrade in a season or two...you're about my size so a 157 should work..I ride a 159 and 157..also dont spend 300-400 on a used board..you should be able to get find the board and bindings for under $200 easily..
