...It makes no sense, but we love it anyways

JungleLarry · 10-15-2007, 02:11 AM

Boom, ****ers. I'm in this ****.

your thread is gay as balls, or this

Do snowboards have weight limits? Yes it's a serious question. I would like to try snowboarding before the year is over but I'm 6foot2 and at least 235-240.

Or should I just invest in a good treadmill?

bastards..

JungleLarry · 10-15-2007, 02:24 AM

They don't have weight limits, per se, but they do have suggested weight maximums. With your weight, you're looking at boards in the 170's.

A treadmill would help a lot though.

Whats a good size for 6'2, 200lbs? I'll probably be dropping to around 185 though.

InfamousDX · 10-15-2007, 08:11 AM

Ordered the girl up an 08 Feelgood and 08 Escapades... worse comes to worse they can be returned because dogfunk kicks ***. Oh and hte 10% coupon code didn't hurt.

Depends on what you want to ride the board for? If it's an all mountain board, anywhere between 164-168 would be good. If it's a park board, anywhere between 156-159.

I'm the same way, but I have a size 14 foot. Do they make 159-161 or somewhere around there in wide? I have a 165w and it's just a little too big for what I want.

The Skunkape from Lib Tech is a wide board that's supposed to be pretty killer

There's a ton of choices.

However, my best advice would be to try to fit in a smaller boot or get a boot with a low profile shell (like the Burton SL-10). Just so you know, I measure a 14 on a brannock scale but I wear a size 12 Burton Driver X. You might want to check it out.

Sure! Youre only the 9359346 person to ask. We would need to know your size as in height/weight/shoe and experience, and what you ride as in powder, park, etc to help you at all.
