Snowboards for Women

i haven't been riding for a really long time, but i love this board, it has enough flex so that it's easy to ride anywhere, it's not as good for terrain parks or stuff like that, but excellent on the mountain.

I bought this board as a novice. I had tried snowboarding before, but on a board that was much too heavy and long. The feather is truly what it's name says. It allows you to float on the mountain. Turns become much easier to learn, because of this board. On the downside, I know that this board will not last me more than another season. It seems the more advanced I become and the steeper terrian that I choose to go on the more the board is starting to hinder, instead of help me. It think if you are willing to pay the price it is a great board to learn on, but plan on purchasing another board within a year or two.

I got this board Christmas of 2004 and immediately put it to good use, beginning at an intermediate/advanced riding level. The board itself is probably better suited for less-experienced riders, more novice, with a balanced flex that offers just enough stability for all-terrain riding. Lightweight and maneuverable, but this sometimes means that it won't hold its own on hard landings. I would only recommend this board for those that aren't going to be stomping the big stuff but still want something flexible for the park, pow or groomed bowls. The board did start to fall apart the winter of '07, chipping away at the edges. I eventually lost a good five inches off the tail-end, and after hearing that this is a common problem with the Burtons, will not be purchasing another. While not durable, it's a great transitional board and works well in all environments.

This was my first snowboard that I have ever bought. It was a good beginer board to start with. It carves nice. The major draw back that I did not like about this board is that once I became better at snowboarding it was a little slower then the pace I wanted to go. For the size being so small it is a little hevier then a lot of bigger boards. For the most part though i have enjoyed my board and, if you are just starting out and don't like to fast then this is the board you want then.

When I first started snowboarding, I bought a cheap Lamar board. After the first season I bought a Burton Feather. I cannot tell you how much the Feather improved my riding. It is obvious to me now that good equipment does make a difference. This board may seem a bit expensive, expecially if you're just starting out, but it's worth it. If you want a quality experience, get quality gear.

4 all girlz who love flex and durability in a board, this 1 is 4 u. It let's u stomp landings softly of of the smallest jumps to the 20 footers. Rails and boxes r a breeze because the board follows yur leg movement, and the flex makes landings easier. I'd recommend it 2 any gal who loves a flexible all mountain ride.

I recently picked up the 2005 Burton Feather as my first board purchase and I love it! This board is lightweight and has a soft flex - perfect for the beginner who's learning to turn and who wants to build confidence. Not so great on powder as on groomed though. Sweet ride for the money. Good choice for a first board.
