What's a good Burton board for my 11yr son?

  • he's 4 feet 11inches and he weighs 107 what's a good suggestion...


  • if 11yrs old he's gonna grow so i would go ebay or similar place


  • if i were you i would go to a sports authority or dicks sporting goods or any other sporting store look for a board that comes up to past his chin and no higher than his nose
    also marow is a good brand


  • well i had a burton punch 07 check on e-bay those are amazing also pretty cheap it lasted me 2 years


  • First, use a snowboard size calculator:

    About 140 is the correct size for him now, but I would recommend going a little bigger (143, etc) and letting him grow into it - or even doing a season rental for him.

    Everybody always asks about Burton because that's the only brand they've ever heard of - but it is mostly hype and the really good riders are usually on something else - you can spend less and get a better board - Ride, K2, etc.

    Those Burton Chopper is the one most kids ride, but they are really soft and aren't any better than other brands. The Burton Custom Youth is stiffer and made for bigger kids but $250+ is a lot for a kids board:

    I would really suggest the Ride Impact (2007 last year if you can find one) or the Ride Ruckus (clearance for $120):

    Good Luck
