Any suggestions on a wide snowboard?
My son has a size 12 mens boot and his toes always hang over the edge of his Burton board. The middle of his board is 9.5 inches wide and wider would be great thanks, any ideas as to wider models.

Ride has a lot of great wide boards, and my favorite website has an entire section dedicated to wide boards, here’s the link – http://www.the-house.com/snbd-wide-snowboards.html

/ March 1, 2011Honestly all brands make wide boards I’d look more into what type of riding your son likes to do than just picking a wide board.
If he’s looking for more freestyle than I’d look at the
GNU
Libtech
Forum
Omatic and
Capita brands
If he’s more all mountain/freerider than I’d look at
Neversummer

burton

They all make wide boards.

/ March 1, 2011My feet are an 11.5 so I know all about toe drag. I was looking into the burton custom wide. I love the custom. It is a great board. Its a little pricey, but worth it. The wide model should be perfect. People who have size 13 and 14 can ride a wide model board with no troubles.
