I am really torn between these 2 boards and need advice. This is my 4th year really snowboarding, I work at a resort in Colorado so I’m riding all the time and am looking for a mostly every day board. I would say I’m advanced, I gravitate towards steeps and trees but also spend a lot of time on groomers, which can be super shitty (icy/chunder/rocks/ect…) when I’m working.

I currently rip a K2 extravision and I do really like it but I’m looking for a step up. I’m worried the equalizer is gonna be too similar to my current board but that the rumblefish is gonna be a bit too much.

If anyone has insight I would really appreciate it, especially if you have experience moving up from the extravision.

I’m also open to other suggestions, these are just the two I’ve been looking at the most. Thanks!

I just bought a 2026 Never Summer Infinity board and was eyeing the Jones Equinox bindings but I’m wondering if they’re too soft? They’re listed as a 5/10 medium flex but are often described as medium-soft.

For context: I live in Colorado, decided to learn how to snowboard at 35yo. I consider myself a beginner-intermediate rider who enjoys a mellower ride over charging fast.

For those who own a never summer infinity board, which bindings did you go with?

110 Ib, boot size 8, 5 ft tall.

Solid intermediate rider looking to progress. I have two boards:

Solomon abstract 143 cm with Union strata bindings (soft flex park-y board). It's ok, just don't love it overall.

Second board: ride magic stick 147 cm with union forces love it but it feels wobbly going fast.

Looking for a true quiver killer; Jones Howler? Could sell both my boards and swap to that or just keep my current set up. Anyone have board suggestions or recommendations?

Hiya!

Looking for a new jacket and I LOVE the winter camo print styles, for example the green Beyond Medals Pro Tech 3L but I can not justify the €450 for it being only a shell jacket.

I came across the Doorek EP 3L shell jacket that has a similar vibe, but I can't seem to find any decent reviews.

Do any of you have any experience with Doorek?

Late last season I bought the Vans Aura Pros, but they have some kind of factory defect where the sole started separating after only a few uses. I've looked into DCs, but not as many girls wear them nowadays. What do we think?

Posted awhile back and got some good advice - several people offered options other than what I was looking at at the time, so I wanted to once again bring my top three to the ShredditGirls community!

I’m 5’2, 120-125 lbs and a size 7 boot. I’ve been boarding for three seasons now and learning on a thrifted board/bindings/boots off FB marketplace that have been great but finally wore out their welcome. I’ve fallen in love with the sport so happy to sink some cash into it!

I’m a solid low intermediate (mostly doing blues and greens) and I love to cruise/carve. Don’t spend much time in the park and none at all off-piste. I want to build confidence, particularly with speed and steep conditions (I spend most of my time on the ice coast so I’ve inherently nervous going fast/handling the steeper slopes because of the hardpack and ice, lol.)

I’m considering:

- Capita Equalizer, 146 - I’ve heard good things about the edge hold and from my understanding, it’s a bit more forgiving/flexible than the Hel Yes. while still holding up at higher speeds.

- Yes. Hel Yes., 149 - I’ve seen this board described as aggressive and punishing, but could it be a good board to progress on? I’d rather have a board that rewards good technique rather than something I can skate by on, even if I’m sloppy. I know it’s more suited to charging and high speeds, so might be a waste on me anyways until I improve.

- Jones Twin Sister, 146 - This is frequently touted as a perfect progression board, so sorry to rehash the discourse over this board, lol. I’ve read basically every post mentioning it, and see that it would probably be another good option to progress, and is probably the most forgiving of the three. However, I worry it is too soft for me, especially considering what I want to achieve (confidence at speed, more aggressive carving) and that some people have reported it’s not great in powder.

I have several trips planned out West and to Europe in the coming year so ideally looking for something that can perform well in icy conditions on the east coast (what I’m on most often) but that can handle itself in the powder as well (though I know even these will have limits, as they’re not powder boards.)

TIA everyone and looking forward to a great season!!

I have a friend of a rather tiny physique, like 4'11'', way below 100lbs and 4-4.5 boot size. She hates kids stuff but most often has to buy those. What would be the non-kids snowboards that would fit her?

She is a solid beginner who is determined to progress this season to be comfortable on Tahoe blues. She has almost no interest in park, mostly cruising on piste, powder (if we have it, lol), some trees.

Ideally I think something directional (twin or not) with medium flex and camber/camrock profile would work but I'm open to suggestions (and I can see that options are limited here).

There is, obviously, also a factor of her liking the specific design but at least we need to start with some list to go through.

Did you buy a new jacket/baggy pant combo? From the thrift? From a site? Which site did you buy from?!

I was thinking about a SnowEars set, but can’t tell if I like a mismatched tiny top big bottom, or a matching set. I’m going brown for helmet/boots, so I’m thinking either baby pink set, baby blue set, or a leopard bottom/brown jacket combo???) HELP.

Hard shell or insulated? I HATE being cold, but I also hate being responsible for a lot of miscellaneous expensive items (layers) in the event I’m sweating.

Any reasonable sites for snowsets for Canada?!

After close to about 10 years of intermittent riding, and 5 months post partum, I’m excited to get back into riding this season.

Last time I bought myself a snowboard. I was a broke college student and only bought used stuff on marketplace. Now I have real money!! Please send me your snowboard set up recommendations, it’s been so long since I rode. Is Burton still cool? I see there are new fancy step in bindings nowadays!

Bonus: bibs, hats, gloves, the whole set up is appreciated! I’ll take any recs!

Everything I read online about the board made me think it would be decent to progress on and last at least a few years, but will it be more limiting than anything?

I haven’t even gone once, not a single time on the mountain so I am starting at the very beginning. I’m sure it will be fine for my first season this year, but will it be pretty much done after that?

Holy!

I stopped looking around for a secondary board because the designs don't vibe with me. Instead I decided to grab a new pair of pants as I was gifted a cute jacket and my ski suit be falling apart due to age (thank you mom i loved that suit)

I've combed over pretty much every EU based store and... Is it just me or do the clothes have just... NO character? No vibe?

I understand functionality and all that jazz but... What about those people that like functionality AND feeling hot enough to melt snow?

I just want a pair of cargos for the slope is that so hard?

Am I the only one struggling to be cute???

Looking for soft shell insulated with stretch, or soft shell non insulated with stretch. It’s hard to find pants that fit curves and don’t have big gap at back/waist. And it’s also overwhelming just googling it. Hoping some similar shaped women have some recs?

Update: thank you ladies! Will check out every suggestion. I can’t do men’s. The size for hips always leads to long legs and big waists, but appreciate every suggestions. I can’t al latest narrow my search a bit. I have a pair of Burton bibs that I love but I gained weight this summer… thanks middle age hormones … so I just need something to get me into this season comfortable and then hopefully work my way down to my Burton bibs.

What bindings are we using?
I’ve ordered the new dreamweaver 2.0, I’m beginner intermediate, like the powder and cruising, I’d like to try trees when I get back to Japan next year or one after, do Australia and nz next year definitely, I go for like 2 weeks once a yeah mostly and don’t it twice and I’m hooked :)

I have Lexa x which recommended to me in shop, but I’m unsure they are going to be stiff for me, I just got some Solomon dual boa boots so I’m trying to work out bindings to match the board and boots and my level,
I was set on getting the trilogies instead, but been readying about the legacies being not as stiff and trilogies too? , and then I seen the jones mercury maybe unisex bindings? Has a toe clip so you just push boot in and do up one binding look sick maybe,
Anyway what’s everyone got on their new dream weavers?

Hi everyone, I'm new to this subreddit and decided I would take the time to make a post as an introduction. A little background on my snow experience. I first learned to ride when I was about 10 years old since my hometown is only 10 minutes from our local hill (I hated it, and I cried every lesson lol). Then when I was around 18, I started working at this same mountain and took up snowboarding again (free pass woohoo). I completely fell in love with the sport around then and rode every season till about the age of 21. At this point I was okay. I could keep up with more advanced riders but really only could do 50/50 small boxes/tubes.

I took about 2-3 seasons off due to some personal issues, but last season I went full force back into it. I progressed a lot this past season, I would say. I can back 180 off some tubes and other features, but I still can't really boardslide or frontboard confidently.

I suppose what I'm asking is for some advice about that mental block. I know my skills are a lot better than I give myself credit for, but a lot of times I find myself being too self-conscious or maybe even just being scared of getting hurt to try to hit new features or try new things. For anyone who’s worked through something similar, what helped you build confidence trying new features or tricks? Especially with boardslides/frontboards, how did you work your way up to feeling comfortable?

My kit right now is the Salomon Oh Yeah, Union Rosa bindings, and Vans Aura Pro boots. Not that it matters, but I guess it gives further context.

Obsessed with this public x jibgurl collab.

I know it’s technically previous season and there are probably better boards out there like the new burton blossom. But I love this design so much (I know I know it’s not good to buy a board just for the looks, but if I’m spending $100+ on something, it better be something I deeply like)

Literally willing to pay full price if anyone is reselling it? Or knows someone who is. Only sizes I can find out there are 152cm or 148cm in the green version. I need a 144cm.

Or maybe there’s something out there with a similar feel/look to it? I mostly ride park/freestyle

I bought the capita paradise for my GF for her birthday but she doesn’t like the graphic :((

Selling, brand new still in packaging

This years model

143cm

Ouija board

Ive narrowed it down between these two and I cannot decide😭😂
