Womens Snowboards

Womens snowboards is a little bit of a misleading title since all snowboards must obey the same design rules and functionality. What does differ however are the graphic decals and general aesthetics which can be made to appear more ‘girly’ for want of a better term!

When you’re in the process of choosing a woman’s snowboard pay more attention to something which will suit your lower centre of gravity, reduced weight and foot size. This normally results in women’s snowboards being shorter with a lighter core and a waist which is more narrow. All of that combines to give you increased control and a more secure and enjoyable riding experience.

Let’s check out some popular products from women’s snowboards in the current range.

This is a really versatile women’s snowboard equally well suited to the pipe or the powder.

Due to it’s directional shape (and other long worded scientific features!) the Arbor Eden snowboard will give you tight turns and rapid initiation while keeping its core stability and speed.

The wood is certified from the Forest Stewardship so it’s got very green credentials and a flexible edge control to inspire confidence and trust in the boards turning capabilities. Due to the structure of the wood the top sheet operates like a 3rd layer of fibreglass which gives this womens snowboard increased durability with lighter weight. The top sheet also features a durafilm finish to give it added protection. It’s basically a very thin layer of gloss nylon that will go a long way to protecting against the type of damage caused by loose bindings.

GNU B-Street BTX Snowboard - Women's

This board is a great ‘do it all’ monster which will handle pretty much whatever you throw at it. It’s a soft flexing twin tip design with a great float in the powder due to its banana technology.

With it’s twin shape you can ride just as well in both directions and the board is extremely well built and strong thanks to it’s aspen wood core.
