What kind of snowboarding gear should/do i need?
ok so im probably getting either a burton indie or vapor not sure yet, im getting my bindings and boots as well but what else do i need? what kind of jacket and pants? anything under them? do i have to wear a helmet or can i just wear a beanie? what kind of goggles and gloves ect!
if not burton then what kind of board? im 6 foot and 175 pounds?
ha kid don’t waste your money on the most expensive pile of garbage, and yes I mean the vapor. That thing is overpriced by a good 400 bucks… but hey it’s burton that’s what they do. Try these brands for quality.

Avoid pretty much all the brands sold at those big retail stores “D&icks,sports check,sports authority,big 5 ect ect”. Pretty much all the brands sold there “5150,Lamar,LTD,Sims,morrow” are low end garbage decks that any boarder planning to go a lot shouldn’t bother buying, They’ll only end up holding you back.
As for specific boards, without the type of riding you’re looking to do “Freestyle,Allmountain,Freeride” that would be impossible for me to recommend for you 
.
and you don’t have to wear a helmet, well some mountains require you to if you plan on riding the park. It’s usually wise to wear one anyways, but if you don’t want to I would find out if your mountain requires them in the park or not before hand .
As for the clothing just look at the tech specs, if you ride often in cold conditions look to stay above 10k on waterproofing and breathability, and look for fully tapered seams on the gloves, you’ll probably want to have atleast one layer of thermals on underneath them.
clothing brands I would check out.

The North Face Ear Gear $22.95 If chilly winter headwinds leave you with a headache while running or Nordic skiing, you’ll appreciate the thermal warmth of this fleece Ear Gear headband from The North Face. It’s made from midweight Polartec 200 Series fleece with a stretchy Lycra spandex binding for a close fit. Ear Gear offers some distinct advantages to traditional knit caps and outerwear headwear: It offers better venting through your hair and in some situations minimizes that annoying “hat hair” phenomena frequently observed–or intentionally overlooked–in coffee shops and ski area day lodges. Depending on the fit, you can sometimes layer this fleece headband beneath a skiing, cycling or snowboarding helmet, too. The North Face designed their Ear Gear to be lightweight and easy to stow in a small pack, messenger bag or handbag, so it’s a perfect portable winter essential for commutes, day hikes and frigid business trips. |
