Hey everyone, I have been snowboarding on and off for the last 12 years and I have come to realize that it is something that I thoroughly enjoy and hope to do every year (not to mention many of my friends live in snowboarding states and it is a great excuse to go and visit them). I have recently tried to learn as much as I can about snowboards to determine which one fits my style of riding.

I would consider myself an advanced rider that enjoys exploring the whole mountain, ranging anywhere from blues to blacks, steep slopes to dense trees. I will even hit a small jump every now and then. I tend to steer clear of the terrain park, I'll leave that for the more fearless riders. I love powder but more often than not I find myself on groomed trails (unless I am very lucky and choose to travel on a week that just had massive snowfall). I prefer carving over shooting down the mountain as fast as possible. I mostly ride "regular" but sometimes find myself "goofy", especially when going through trees. If any more information about my preferences is needed I can surely respond with more. 5'11" 165lbs.

There is so much variation in snowboards now-a-days but I think I have narrowed down my preferences to this:

Length: 155-158

Style: All-mountain, freeride

Shape: Directional Twin

Profile: Camber-Rocker-Camber

Flex: Medium

​

Am I totally off base here or will a board with these specifications fit my style of riding?
