Posted: 03 February 2011 07:13 AM
Hey all,
howz it hanging?, anyhows what ive started this post for is to query about board buying, and yes i used boarda selecta…didnt like the selection lol
well after doing some research ive found some boards i like, and with the knowledge provided by this site thought maybe the boards were right for me, i was just wanting some advice on, said boards, and any other suggestions. Im fairly new to snowboarding, learnt last season, but my teacher was good we advanced quickly, most of the terrian we did was moutain/backcountry and abit of park so basically looking for an all mountain type board. Im about 170cm tall 77kg so im thinking a 159 board?, And this is the list ive come up with so far (all Arbor):
Element CX
Coda
wasteland(pricey though)
Any input would be appreciated, and also does anyone know if the american season would affect online store prices?, ever way they beat australian prices, even with our summer sales.
Thank you much appreciated.

Hey dude, sorry for the late reply, we’re just kind of out-of-the-office these days.
I’d say for you, the Coda would be the best choice. A really nice board and not too advanced for a beginner like you.
If you have any more questions, you’re welcome to post them here!

thanks for the idea about what i should be looking at. So with that base i went back and read into some different boards, and ive mixed up my choices to three boards all different brands, i wondering if you could give me some quick pros and cons for each or personal choices?, im just trying to get as much information as possible to make my choice. and could u give me any suggestions for good bindings/boots out this year.
the boards are
