Next comes the stance on the board. For beginning snowboarders, a slight turn of the front binding toward the nose of the board and the back binding with a little less turn is recommended. Most bindings have numbers on the inside to determine the angle in degrees. Make sure when you strap into the board that your toes don t hang over the edge too much. Again, try and stand on the board and adjust the bindings, so that you are comfortable.
Boots are the often-overlooked component of snowboarding.
A good snowboard boot, no Sorels is recommended for beginners. The boot should fit snug around your ankle, make sure your pants are out of the boot. It should fit like a nice sneaker. Walk around make sure your heel does not lift off the bottom of the boot. Also make sure that you have a little room around your toes, so they stay warm.
