Does anyone know a good 'virtual' size guide web link (in 'normal' measurements and weights eg. I am 5'6" that I can utilise for calculating a board. I can only find the snow & rock one online and can't work it - I'm not good at sums...

Thanks

Just found this website www.snowboardlengthcalculator.com/

Remember to be honest with youe ability. I bought a Nitro board that is very stiff and I am still finding it too quick 3 trips later. Just as well i'm going to Canada this year. Should be powdery, thus little chance of catching an edge.

Have you decided on a board already??

Thanks mate, I'm totally honest about my ability - I'm an absolute Goddess & seriously kick ass on the slopes.

I learned on an ex rental all rounder Nitro board (of which I have two) until I was at a confident intermediate level and then bought a decent intermediate board that suited my style (Burton Air).

This is actually for a mate, I have two old boards (a Ride and a Nitro) and I need to calculate if either are suitable for him. Thanks - I'll use that link.
