Beginner Snowboarder – Rent or Buy?
Jan 7th
If you are planning to go for a snowboarding trip and you still have not decided about your equipment, then buying the required gear seems to be the best option, but be prepared to spend some cash. Beginners…your best option is renting. Its how myself and many others I know started off at least the first few couple of times. But if you’ve got the cash…splurge. Because once you’ve experienced the thrill of boarding you’ll wish you purchased right off the bat instead of wasting your moola on renting.
Renting is the most affordable option for beginners because at the end of the day if you come to the conclusion that snowboarding just isn’t your cup of tea, then you can just return the gear and say sayonara. Also if you’re traveling to your snow destination, then loading them in your car is also another issue….unless you own a truck or snowboard rack. Traveling by plane will also require a special bag for your snowboard. So in the end, you can save yourself from all the hassle by just renting. Every snow resort has rentals but you can even save yourself a few bucks if you rent outside at a local sporting goods. But then you run into the problem again of finding space in your car to pack them. So, renting at the resort does have its advantages.
Furthermore, if you’re traveling during the peak season…normally around holidays, keep in mind that rentals are scarce. Try to reserve in advance or you’ll have a heck of a time finding gear specific to your size. This is very important…many times I was stuck searching different sporting goods the day before my trips just to find my size…not a fun experience.
