Years ago, countless women beginning their snowboarding career or hobby, were forced to use snowboards built for men because manufacturers of snowboards only builds one type of snowboards and that was for those who dominated the sport. That is not the case today because this extreme sport has several standout stars who happen to be women and for the past decade or so, snowboard manufacturers have taken note and built snowboards for women.
Various women have proclaimed that the Burton Feelgood snowboard handles well at all speeds and is extremely light and flexible which are what a woman wants in a great snowboard. Numerous women snowboarders cannot believe the difference they feel and see in their performance after having used men’s snowboards for years.
The Burton Troop has been described as a butterfly soft, flexible, ride on a cloud style snowboard that every woman should try. One woman wrote a review on the snowboardsforwomen.com website stating that the Burton Troop was one of the best boards out there, especially for parks where it works terrific on rails, pipes and boxes. It’s very light weight and turns nicely; however if you are into carving down double diamond runs, it does not hold this well.
Snowboarding, like many sports, can be expensive, but if you want to find a good woman’s snowboard, it’s best to do a little homework first and then go shopping for the best board for your height, weight and budget. The best place to start researching women’s snowboards is on the Internet at the snowboardsforwomen.com website.
This website offers a form that women can enter their height, weight and experience and once you press enter, a formula figure which snowboard would be perfect for them. Of course there is nothing that would replace an actual test drive; however when you are ordering a snowboard from a website, it is difficult to “try it before you buy it.” That is why it is important to buy from a reputable snowboarding dealer and make sure they have a good return policy.
