tugnuts - when you get a chance (and some spare change) spring for some new gear - even the entry level stuff is going to be hands-down waaaaay better than your 15yr old board

the tech is sooo much better. boots stiffer but more comfortable and more responsive, bindings more comfortable/less pinching, lighter, etc. boards have more pop, more flex where you want it, etc. after you ride yours a few times, you'll appreciate the difference.

Im 35 years old from Brazil (No snow down here, unfortunately

), So I have to travel to Argentina and Chile, when I want to snowboard (it´s ok). I went more then 4 times, Im an intermediate level snowboarder. Since I´m a surfer, it helped me a lot with my skills! I have to admit that I am ADICTED TO SNOWBOARD now!!!!
