Extreme - this concept pleases the ear for those people who like to let adrenaline into their blood and tickle their own nerves. Snowboarding is one of the safest and most affordable options for organizing extreme recreation. For any snowboarder, it is the length of the board that determines the maneuverability when cornering and descending steep slopes.
It is necessary
Knowing your own height and size of your feet
Instructions
Step 1
Go to a specialized store. The sales assistant will most likely offer you to choose it according to growth parameters. The snowboard should reach the nose (or upper lip) of its owner. But this method has a bunch of errors, it has the right to exist, but it is still not recommended to use it due to bias and the possible occurrence of errors.
Step 2
Measure your own height, weight, foot size in the most accurate way. One of the most important criteria is weight. The board must efficiently, optimally and evenly distribute human weight. There are two formulas by which you can choose the correct length of your snowboard. For men, you need to take the number 136 and add it with the product of the weight and 0, 3. Women need to take the number 127 and also add it with the product of your own weight and 0, 4. The length of the snowboard will be determined by the resulting answer.
Step 3
Decide in advance how, where and when you will carry out the skiing process. For jumping and performing tricks, the shorter version is more suitable for you. For deep snow riding, it is better to choose a longer board. Longer snowboards are more physically demanding, while shorter ones will be a little easier to ride.
