Snowboard  Size Calculator

I hope you like my snowboard sizing calculator. More accurate than a simple size chart, this calc lets you know your size snowboard to use. Of course you can use any size you want, this is merely a recommendation.

Shorter boards are easier to control.  They allow you to turn quicker and spin faster.  They are great for freestyle and lower speed riding.  Longer boards make slower turns and are beneficial for floatation in deep snow and stability at higher speeds.

In sizing snowboards, board width is more important than length.  A snowboarder with a board that is too long or short can adjust, but an ill-fitted width is nearly impossible to use.  Too narrow and your toes will drag resulting in the edge releasing and loss of control.  Too wide and it makes edging and carving too strenuous. Width is measured as "waist width" in millimeters.
