How to choose your snowboard?
To make the right decision, it can be useful to get familiar with some technical aspects. It will help you chose a board suited to your needs.
Understanding cambers
Camber gives the snowboard defined characteristics of manoeuvrability, grip or pop. In addition to the program and skill level, it is a very important element to consider when choosing a snowboard. While every brand works continuously to develop new profiles, there are some standard cambers we can highlight:
The traditional camber, also known as classic camber, refers to the arc that shapes between the nose and the tail when the board sits flat on the ground. It will define the following attributes: liveliness, pop and edge control. On the down side, a traditional camber makes the board less forgiving and more demanding which often turns beginners away but will be perfect for a carving snowboard.
The nose and the tail raise above the snow. Reverse cambers maximise floatation on powder and provide a more forgiving and catch free feel on hard snow. Boards with a reverse camber are generally best suited for freestyling due to their playful character. Jibbing or box pressing is easier, same goes with flat tricks. The boards are also excellent partners for powder sessions. They are easy to manoeuvre through deep snow and they float naturally. The price of this versatility is a lack of stability and edge grip at high speed.
Flat cambers forgive more mistakes than traditional cambers and offer more stability than a reverse camber. Generally flat between the feet and rockered towards the tips, the board floats easily on powder and feels playful on hard snow. It is an excellent in-between if you can’t decide whether you want a traditional or a reverse camber.
The W Rocker, or hybrid camber, is a mix of several cambers giving the board a wavy shape when you look at it from the side, this is why we call it W. It features a reverse camber between the feet, two sections of traditional camber under the bindings which turn into two rockers through the tips. The idea is to combine the benefits of a traditional camber (pop, grip, liveliness) with the benefits of a reverse camber (easy turning, forgiving feel, floatability). The hybrid camber is, according to us, the profile that can suit the needs of most riders.
The Rocker camber is a traditional camber coupled with a rockered nose and tail. This allows a good combination of pop and edge control with playfulness and floatability.
Freeride :
The freeride camber is a traditional camber combined with a long rockered nose. This gives the board tons of edge control and strong underfoot power, which offers solid control at high speed. The rocker maximises floatability on powder and helps turn initiation, making the board more manoeuvrable in difficult conditions.
What is a rocker ?
If snowboard constructions are widely inspired from ski constructions, it is the other way around when it comes to cambers and rockers. Snowboards were first to feature new profiles improving turns entries or powder performance. Recognisable thanks to a long progressive rise of the tip, the rocker is now a standard feature on boards, especially on freeride boards.
What type of snowboard for a beginner?
If you want to start snowboarding, you will find at Glisshop a selection of suitable snowboards to discover this discipline while having fun. With a soft flex and forgiving profile, these boards will allow you to quickly gain confidence so that you can link turns on blue runs in no time. Lots of these models are also great if you want to try out freestyle, as their forgiveness allows to work on your tricks.
