Thats cheap for what you got….

Don’t worry in about a year or 2 you will be wanting new stuff that will make that pale into insignificance

Yeah, snowboarding is an expensive sport. It sounds like you got some pretty good deals, on quality brand name items. Since you got the clothing too, I think that is a pretty fair price. One more thing you should get is some special socks from the ski shop, to keep your feet warm. Have fun!

Anything snow related, ski’s, boards, bindings, boots are all expensive especially at the beginning of the season. You could have bought all of that stuff at the end of the season for about half of that. I would have rented for the first few times to see if I was going to like it. Then, I would have bought equipment once I knew what I was doing and looking for. But, at least you’ll have this year’s new stuff and your pick of the litter by buying now. So, it’s a toss up. Did you get a board bag to haul all your stuff? http://shopping.msn.com/results/shp/?bCatId=9234,av=2-121912

Sorry to say but it sounds to me like you spent way too much!!!

I just bought everything I’ll need for snowboarding this year on ebay for around $200.
But I didn’t buy gloves, coat or snow pants, because I’ve always had to own that stuff…I live in Canada!

You didn’t need to buy brand name stuff, it costs a lot less for same quality items if you don’t.

Snowboarding is an expensive sport, but not as expensive as skiing (ski boots can cost $500+ just for the boots). So you’ve spent enough at least that you won’t give up easily, you have too much invested. Don’t forget to take a lesson or two. And wrist guards and a helmet are a really good idea.
