Determine your Snowboard Size find out what these sizes are used for

Maybe you're new to snowboarding—and maybe you're not—but you're discovering that getting the right Snowboard Size will positively affect your snowboarding experience. Well, what exactly does Snowboard Size entail? Snowboard Size means length and width of your snowboard and finding the right combination will improve your performance and handling.

• ~Width: Your shoe size will directly affect your Snowboard Size. The smaller your feet, the more narrow your snowboard will need to be and riders with larger feet will need a wider-sized snowboard. To find the boards width, look under the waist of the snowboard. Snowboard Size is measured in centimeters or millimeters. Find the appropriate width by trying the board on for good measure. Get into your snowboard boots and bindings and try each board on for a good fit. This will ensure that the Snowboard Size will be right for you.
• ~Length: The length of a snowboard is measured from the tip to the tail in centimeters. Snowboard length can be determined by your height. If you're just learning to snowboard, a short board is best, as it is easier to handle, which is important while you're still in the learning stages. Boarders, who do lots of park and pipe riding, use short boards more often. The medium Snowboard Size is perfect for all-terrain snowboarding or the intermediate to advance snowboarder. The long Snowboard Size, however, is for conquering big mountain terrain and speed carving.
