How to Size a Snowboard

Is it OK to ride a shorter snowboard?

Neither. If you ride freestyle you’ll tend to gravitate towards slightly smaller snowboards, but you still can’t go too small or you risk losing stability on jumps. You need to match the snowboard to the type of riding you do. However, outside the park on big powder days I’ll use a 158 cm all-mountain snowboard.

Does snowboard size really matter?

If you’re riding primarily in the park or freestyle, pick a board on the shorter end of the size range. If you’re riding is mostly all mountain, powder or freeriding, consider a snowboard on the longer end of the size range or grabbing a volume shifted board. If you are above average weight consider a longer snowboard.

Should my snowboard be as tall as me?

Rider height does not matter at all. It should not be considered in your buying decision. The same is true of tip to tip board length (i.e. 148 cm) except in the case where you are comparing board sizes within a given model. The size that she will want is entirely dependent on the model she is considering.

Can You skid a turn on the Never Summer dipstick?

You can certainly skid a turn on it too. It’s not quite as easy to skid turns on as the Never Summer Dipstick, for example, but still pretty easy. It gets a bit wobbly when you get up to decent speeds, but that’s certainly expected of a board of this flex. Gives you a little more at speed vs the Dipstick.
