Here’s some helpful advice for novice snowboarders deciding on what equipment and clothing to buy to make their first snowboarding holiday memorable.

Don’t forget to pack……………………..

Wrist Guards

Don’t skimp on cheap solid wrist guards as these can do more damage than good. It is worth spending a bit of money on professional wrist guards that have a bit of flexibility. The problem with solid plastic wrist guards they will transfer all the shock to where the guard finishes up your arm or further up to you elbow. If you opt for a guard with flexibility but also enough solid support this will be a lot safer and distribute the shock evenly. Don’t forget to buy a pair of gloves that fit over them.

Impact Shorts

These padded shorts come with padding around the thigh and hip area and the all important coccyx (tail bone) protector. The coccyx protector stops the shock of a fall travelling up your spine. When you have a pair of these on and you fall backwards, it is surprising how little you feel, even on hard snow. This makes it less temping to put your hands down and possibly breaking your wrist.

Goggles

You can either buy two pairs of goggles or two lenses depending on what you prefer. You will need one pair for bright light and another for dark foggy conditions. It is surprising how much the light can change on the mountain day to day.

Snowboard Clothing

For most first time snowboarders the first holiday is always a massive hit to the bank balance even if you end up renting a board the cost of clothing can add up. If you want to do it on a shoestring you can pick up cheap snowboard jackets during the summer months before the winter season starts.

Cheap Snowboard Clothing

Browse end of season sales for cheap snowboard clothing. Watch out for brands such as Quiksilver Clothing, Volcom, North Face and Bonfire. If you don’t mind settled for last season’s technology and styles this is a great way to save a few pennies and spend longer on the slopes.

Would walmart sell anything?

Yes, Wal-Mart has that stuff, so does Target, Sears, possibly JCPenny..but if you’re looking for high quality stuff, then I would check to see if there is a Zumiez store near you, and if not then I would try their website. Zumiez carries gear, clothing, and accessories for snowboarding and skateboarding, and their stuff is really nice and lasts a long time. Check out the website quick to see what I’m talking about!! Hope this helps
