The Snowboard asylum Stocks a reasonable range of products for the snowboard enthusiast, but rather infuriatingly these are often grouped by brand rather than type. You can order a catalogue online, and there's also a store guide and community area. While offering a wide range of snowboarding gear, including Mambo and Billabong at competitive prices, this Edinburgh based online store has yet to develop its windsurfing section. If you're looking to track down a second- hand board, or book a holiday, you'll need to pick up the phone. Burton Snowboards Take a breathtaking glide through the pages of this stunning snowboarding site and consult the excellent guide to buying top branded kit.
Clothing is explained in technical terms for discerning pros.
Nitro Snowboards Crispy cool graphics demonstrate the latest snow-boarding gear by Vortex, Laser, Quantum, Rom and others. You can shop by product type or brand for a range of ski-wear including jackets by Musto, Toggi and Maier. Along with general outdoor sports equipment, you'll find an array of hardwearing mountaineering, ski and snowboarding clothing. Detailed product descriptions are helpful, but the images let the site down.
