- Went snowboarding for the first time this weekend. Visited a few shops and got some opinions on what board to get as a beginner looking to eventually do rails/ramps and was recommended this by several people. I can get it about $150 off. Thoughts?
- Recommend some volume shifted boards similar to the Warpig
- Recommend a snowboard for me!
