Any other eGO members out there who understand the magic of snow? I found the love of my life, snowboarding, about 2 seasons ago and now I'm officially obsessed. I'm currently saving all of my money for this monster. Its about $550 so Ill have to wait until next winter *cries* The Burton Custom ...

And anyone good? I'm not bad myself but I'm not good enough to be sponsored or anything.

i like the farm one. i TRY to go snowboarding every season myself, but sadly enough I find myself not being able to make it some seasons. :(
 
Bummer
Turns out that our school has a ski/snowboard club and we go up to the mountain 6 Fridays after school. No more having to get a ride :D
 
I am in my high school's ski club. We snowboard from time to time... but I LOVE SNOW!!!!!
 
man snowboarding is fun
if i wasn't still growing i would definetely buy one
i would get the top one and save money anywhere pssible but as u said if theres not enuf money i guess u have to go with the farm
 
I live for snowboarding!! I got a M4 board with burton bindings, and DC boots. I'm going this week end to a big hill!
 
I need to get a better board for snow boarding.. We have some fluff right now, but it should harden to get quite good for the sport.

I have a huge hill as my back yard, so I don't have to get a ride anywhere.

But I love snowboarding, its like Off Season Skate boarding :)

Yeah, Ive never been good at skateboarding, but off season (not winter) I wakeboard...which feels a lot like snowboarding on water. It just hurts a lot more

!UP PEDRO
~do you ride the terrain parks at all? (or street if your ghetto?)
 
If you can wait till september a lot of shops will have sales on last years stuff. I did that a few years back and got a new board and bindings for like $450 total instead of like $600. Its a lot better of a deal that way. all the stuff is brand new but just not the newest stuff. best way to buy nowboard imo unless you got the cash to shell out for the current stuff.
 
yeah, im getting a new board next Christmas if I cant buy one myself before. The local store near me is having a MASSIVE sale in august, so i might get the custom, custom binding, and boots all for only $500 :D
 
:D
I went up last Saturday and landed my first set of rails and jumps :)

My friend (whose really good) wants to make a video so if it ever happens Ill post it
 
Burton is the way to go. Burton board, boats, bindings.

I've been boarding for around 5 years now and it's probably one of my favorite things to do in life. I can do boxes and rails but not really jumps. I'm afraid of heights soooo, those don't really work with me.
 
The Custom is the most popular board of all time. Good all mountain board. Fast on the groomers, good in powder, decent in the park. Not the best at any of course, but will get the job done.

That's a fine choice for a third season rider.
 
You dont have to go with burton because everyone thinks its the best, ONE OF THE BEST yes, i find M3 has good boards and SIMS makes the most comfortable bindings for my style anyways. I have an M3 board now, cant remember the name of it though (preety sure its a millinia or something) and its been nothing but AMAZING. So just shop around to find the best price. and as for boots every kind is diffrent for every boarder. And if anyone lives near ottawa and wants to go snowboarding give me a hollar i go like everyday :D

haha lucky that you go everyday.
I agree, slap a B on a board and people go for it over others. Ive been looking at a Never Summers as well because nothing ever goes wrong with them
 
well used to be able to do the easy stuff, all the grabs pretty much, 180s, 270s, and 360s i coul do boxes and some rails. mainly 50-50 and 5-0 grinds.

I havent had to chance to go this season because i just dont have the money. :( so i dought i could land any of those tricks if i tried. But i do plan on going at the end of the month if theres still snow.

I used to goto Holiday Valley in New York when i was in high school because thats where my ski club went. I loved it there.
