first of all, thx for the vid! 2nd: im a girl but most of the lady cuts are
uncomfy and too short -- now my question: is there any disadvantage in
choosing a way bigger size than my own or a jacket for man ? e.g. is it
more likely to let snow or wind in? oh, maybe another question: is there a
disadvantage in jackets that go almost down to the knees?
thank you so much in advance!
+Morph the Cat An important PS... Of all my stuff, for some reason I added one extra size (to my usual) for a windproof shell. When wearing all garments combined, that ended up being too large for me. The rest of my layers are all my usual size and they all work together just fine. That said, if you have a long torso and are ordering online without being too confident of fit, most sites will include sizing charts relevant to that brand and item of clothing. If not, do a hunt for that particular item on a different website and usually you can get all the info you need. That usually comprises of all or a combination of sizes, meaning you will usually get underarm-hand length/chest/waist/hip/underarm-hem measurements specific to that item. Those cm/inch measurements will then be written in the size scale from say XS-XL. Those guides prove to be usually perfect. By following their instructions to measure each of those points by yourself with a tape measure, you should get it just right. Same goes obviously for pants too. Minimum most brands/vendors will provide waist measurements, and also waist-gusset and inside leg lengths also, often describing loose, regular or tailored fit to get an idea of how baggy or tight you want your pants to be. Just remember though that even with tops being described as "hood will include room for a helmet", it doesn't really work out that way. Even with the shell jacket at a size larger than I needed, wearing a proper sized helmet underneath was still a squeeze.
+Morph the Cat Don't buy stuff that goes to the knee! Size up maybe by one size only if you think you won't fit all your layers underneath, otherwise stick to your size. Remember to choose shells that have a helmet-fit hood to ensure you can make use of it over your helmet if needed.

When I make it tight enough to give me the responsiveness I often find my

Question, im 171 cm, 130 lb, what size board would be best for me? based on
the "below your chin" and "shorter if lighter" im looking around 145 cm
board - does that sound ok? also any recommendation on the actual board? I
want to buy an entire package if possible (board+boots+bindings) to make
sure its all set to go out of the box. Thanks!!
+Mazxlol You should probably take a 155cm board (for all mountain riding). I'd recommend the Nitro Prime or Burton Clash for a low price beginner board
Nice tips, thanks a lot. Have you got or can you make a quick video of what
foot binders goes with what or which ones to get etc, any other needed
gear, I'm so new to all this stuff.
+Johny40Se7en There are many different kinds of bindings that go with different boards. The best thing would be to talk to someone at a store. I go over all the gear you need in this video here: https://youtu.be/tQfLNl4r5jc
Hi Kevin, I heard that a hybrid rocker(Rocker-Camber-Rocker) is a good
choice for beginners. Is it so? I am sure that its going to be in the
higher end of the price range, should I invest so much in my first board?
Could you also suggest boards of this rocker type.
Cheers!!
Hi there, I am looking to purchase my first snowboard and I heard that
snowboards wear out after 4-5 years and that burton boards are the only
ones that do not... (at lease that is what the sales guy told me) is that
true?
No they are probably being paid to say that usually you don't need a snowboard to last 4-5 years, you will probably seeking change by the time that board is worn out
