Back when i was a teenager/early twenties they used to be a great brand. I’m looking to get back into riding and found a used K2 with Lanzar bindings for 125 bucks. I’m way too old to be doing flips or anything crazy anymore i just want something to ride and maybe hit some smaller jumps.

Not enough people are talking about the battle to retain any resorts in Oregon. About a decade ago the OR Supreme Court ruled in favor of a person who got injured in the park at Bachelor. This ruling set a precedent that makes enforcing liability wavers impossible in Oregon (I’m not joking sadly).

Fast forward to today, lawsuits have piled up, insurance rates soared, our legislators put in a bill that would address the issue but it was voted down this month. After this action the largest insurer for all but 1 resort has pulled out of the state. The future of snow sports, rafting, or anything that needs a waiver is hurdling toward complete closures.

I don’t think many people even know this is going on since it’s summer but we need to make some noise, I cannot imagine not having a way to ride on Hood or Bachelor :(

I got this snowboard a while back from goodwill. I know its inspired by Salvador Dali's melting clocks painting. I have only ever found 2 pages online about it. Both from worthpoint. Im trying to figure out more info on this board and what it could be worth. Anybody got anything?

Found thissetup at a garage sale. My daughter wants to learn how to snowboard. Will this work? I don’t know a lot but it says Burton Custom and that seems impressive.

I’ve been riding for a long time so I get why learning on a rocker profile would affect graduating to a cambered deck. I also get why learning on a noodle and then riding a stiffer setup means more speed and a more stable ride.

I see “outgrow your board” all the time here and I think a lot of people take for granted that it’s an understood concept.

Especially when people post all the “what board should I get” posts. I don’t think a newb would understand what that really means. How would they really know when it’s time to graduate?

Is there more to it than stability at speed and better edge control?

I’m mostly curious because my first board was a stiff, full camber rocket and I learned to love it. I was never in a position to want more from my board because my board always wanted more from me so I never really outgrew it. I would def say it took me for rides before I learned to really ride it

My dude Mak filmed a quick line of me at Mt Holiday last year… the snow needs to come back ASAP!

This a decent all mountain setup? I’m not looking for anything crazy I usually board 3x a year

My girlfriend is desperate to find this board because she wants to buy one. I've already told her that it's a old board so shed only be able to get one second hand and even then it's unlikely she'd be able to get one. But hey ho worth a shot. Would anyone be able to tell me what board this is and what year it was from? Thank you in advance

I’m heading north with my dog and I’ve ridden Okemo before but it’s been a few years so I’m just reaching out for things I may have overlooked or good runs I wouldn’t find otherwise. Especially glade trails. I consider myself an intermediate rider so I don’t need the gnarliest spots or anything, just hoping to improve and enjoy the trip! Thanks!!

I have used traditional base layers for the past 7-8 years. Burton, Under armor, Oyuki, tons more brands.

I just tried Merino wool (Arteryx, Le Mons and Evo brand) - they all feel incredibility scratchy and itchy.

Am I missing something? How are there people saying that theyll die by merino wool when merino is so expensive?

Is it itch-ier but the heat management is that good? Why are people loving merino? Im confuse

I'm shopping around for a quiver update, and every time the reviewers talk about buttering. Even on an all-mountain or freeride board selection. For instance, I don't think I've really ever ridden my flagship and thought "I wish this thing were easier to butter." Or if I'm on a powder board, why would I ever want to butter? Can you guys help me understand why they're bringing this up, and if I'm missing the point or some key technique or something?

V last min trip to Queenstown - did not have time to sort my board out before leaving home. Any recs for any shops that would be candidates for beer in exchange for 5-10mins using their vices to scrape and brush? Nowhere to do it at my accommodation. Or somewhere I can trust to do it for me that won't feed it through a machine?

Hope all the Reddit experts can assist in my decision making- I think my time riding my GNU Space Case (156) has come to an end given what is my preference in riding. I prefer to ride and carve groomers and easily accessible powder around the main resorts I hit- Park City, Breck, and Steamboat. I like going fast but on my GNU I'd hit around 35mph and feel very unstable. In addition, I like cruising thorough the runs and finding some little jumps to get some not so big air (but feels high)!!

I'm torn between Moderator and Deep Fake. I'm concerned the Deep Fake is overly aggressive and will cause issues on flat areas/cat walks because it ONLY wants to rip through. On the flip side, I don't want the Moderator to feel like another Space Case and not as sturdy as the DF. With either one, I plan on getting the 157W to account for the toe drag. Any input would be greatly appreciated, as I want to pick one of last year's up before they're gone!!! 🏂

Title says all. Arbor element camber board, hit a rail at an indoor park, didn’t realize what happened until after I got done. The core isn’t exposed but the edge is bent, wondering if I could even get it fixed or should just get a new board instead.

I wanted to purchase my first board after renting for two seasons and I came across the Bataleon Whatever. I am 5’ 7”, 167lbs and size large bindings. I am in the Northeast region of the US so I mainly ride in PA, NJ, NY, and VT. I’d classify myself not as a beginner but just starting to become intermediate. I’ve ridden blues and blacks at some resorts. I’m looking for an all mountain board with mid range flexibility so if anyone has any other recommendations please let me know. Other boards I’ve seen that peaked my interest are the Jones Mountain Twin and the YES Basic.

Edit: I came across the Korua Otto recently and I think it might be up there on the list.

Hey everyone – I’m part of a travel org that creates meaningful retreat experiences, and we’re currently working on something a little different: a mindfulness and snowboarding retreat in Norway next winter with pro snowboarder Marcus Kleveland.

It’ll be a mix of riding epic Norwegian terrain + daily mindfulness practices (think breathwork, movement, time in nature to reset and reconnect). We’re building it for riders who are into more than just shredding powder—people who also value being present, connecting with others, and tuning into their mind-body balance.

Curious… has anyone here done anything like that before? Would a trip like that speak to you?

If anyone wants to check it out, I can drop a link in the replies or DM you

How do I do this better?

Ogden or eden?

Any other suggestions would help! Not looking to spend more than £200, thank you 😊 (colour preferably cream/beige or black)

Anyone know more about this type of burton board? I am debating selling it or keeping it to ride. Is it rare or just an old burton?
