Snowboarding 101 – Gearing Up


hi my name is alica for watchmojo.com
and today we will be taken a peek into
the world of snowboarding snowboarding
gear is drastically changed over the
years so I took you to unlimited a
snowboard shop in Vance Canada to show
you what it’s all about the first
snowboard available in the market was a
surfer we were lucky enough to find one
from the late 70s it had a straw for
your front foot and a stomp pad for your
back foot with the name like Snurfer
snowboarding was definitely influenced
by surfing here’s a more recent model of
the Snurfer made by Burton it was made a
little bit wider and has the same idea
as cushier straps feels a little bit
more like surfing snowboarding if you’re
planning on winning the gold in the half
pipe just like Shaun White you might
want to consider getting a freestyle
board a freestyle board has a more
centered stance and is designed for
riding in both directions if riding the
pipe isn’t your thing and all you want
to do is write the powder in the
backcountry you definitely want to get a
Swallowtail its unique shape gives it a
unique ride hey if money’s not an issue
you definitely want to get a Burton
vapor this is the topper line board for
2007 as you can see there’s a lot of
different boards on the market make sure
you get the one that best suits your
style of riding next on the list close
the right base layer is the key to
keeping warm and happy
a good pair of impact shorts might look
a little funny but they’re definitely a
good idea when you first start
snowboarding the finishing touch is for
you to choose a pair of pants and a
jacket I reflect your own style
so whether you shaun white or jeremy
jones don’t forget to wear your helmet
see you on the slopes
