Boarding Help Please

I'm after buying my first snow board. Just spent a week in Boro and want to start going to snowdome and Xscape Lots!!! Looking at this seasons Burton Clash or Elite.

Can anyone suggest whether it's worth holding on for a sale if any such thing takes place on Borad gear. If so when do sales tend to start?


Any advice welcome please!!!!!!

re: Boarding Help Please

i bought my first board in the sales last year, i'd say wait because you can get some really good deals from about April/May onwards

re: Boarding Help Please

Cheers mate

Can you suggest any good websites or places .


I've been looking at packages on Boardriders.co.uk

re: Boarding Help Please

i bought mine from Snowboard Asylum (google it) and there is also Snow and Rock... i think both these do deals where you buy our board, boots and bindings they'll give you 10% off (only certain boards etc)
hope this helps a bit

re: Boarding Help Please

If you can hang on that long I'd suggest waiting until you're back in Bulgaria.

re: Boarding Help Please

... although if that's your intention, do let the airline know you'll be returning with a 'board or you'll get stung for extra baggage.

I got my board from snowboard asylum in london - great guys and got money off and extra thrown in - its worth looking on their site and giving them a call for advice

re: Boarding Help Please

wait until end of march will possibly get a good deal then if not you havent wasted anything have you. thats usually wneh the sales start I got nearly £200 off my skis

re: Boarding Help Please

even just going into the stores, talking to the guys and seeing what you like. Then search online and find the stuff you want cheaper!

re: Boarding Help Please

Was in Borovets last week with 2 mates (they had they're own gear) my hire board totally failed to keep up with them so i went to the shop & let it be known that i wanted a full package & managed to get the whole bang lot for 600 lev

Proper sweet boot, board & binding that match all my board gear

Plus i'd spent less than both my mates by a hell of a lot & my board was faster & lighter
