Fit Everyone's feet are different, so it's important to find a good shop where you can get unbiased advice. The shape of your feet should be assessed and there should be a good choice. Be warned though - boots that feel very comfortable in the shop will soon pack down, so it is important to buy boots that are snug. Soft or Hard Soft boots are versatile and comfortable. They are used by the majority of riders who love the freedom of the deep stuff or taking air in the fun parks.
Hard boots give better precision and control and are used for alpine boarding or racing.
Women Tend to have narrower feet and lower calves than men and there are boots specifically designed for this. Snowboard bindings Make sure you get the right size binding as well as one that is compatible to your soft or hard boot. Check the binding is adjustable for lean, strap positions, heelcup and toe ramps. The beauty of them is the instant click into the binding with no messing around with straps. In the past, boarders who liked to ride hard found them less dependable, but there is such a good choice available now that there should be something to suit everyone.
