The perfect snowboard depends on two main things. Your weight and your type of riding. The size of board is dependant on your weight because a snowboard is basically a spring under your feet. There are three types of boards Mountain boards (for riding down regular trails and faster speeds) Freeride boards (Boards for tricks, pipes, and terrain park) and an All mountain board (a general board that could be used on any part of a mountain. It has some characteristics of both the other two types of boards) The most common boards are the all mountain boards because they work well whether you choose to just ride or to try out some jumps. Depending on your shoe size (larger then a 10) you may need a wide board so your feet won't hang over the board as much when your strapped in.

∙ 13y agoa general rule is that the tip of the board should be between your chin and your lips. if you plan to ride in powder then you might want to consider a longer board. if you plan to do tricks, a smaller board is easier to control.

∙ 13y agoIt depends on your height and weight and style of riding. It usually should come to somewhere between your neck and mouth. So if you're taller or heavier you'll want a longer board. If you're riding a lot of park you might want a board that's on the shorter side. For average heigh guys (5'10"-6') usually you'll want somewhere between a 153-156. If you're riding a lot of alpine or downhill you'll want a longer board though.
