Hi, hopefully you can help me out a little bit for picking a good board.

I'm an Improving/Intermediate rider, been riding for 5 years, each year for only one week though.

My length is 6.3, 205 lbs and my shoe size in mens boots are 11 (US).

I'm mostly riding on the pistes, sometimes going off-piste.

Not really a park rider but the V-rocker kind of type does sound good to me, anyway hope you can help me out, if you need to know more let me know.

Thanks in advance!

@Oblivion104 V Rocker can be a little squirrely at higher speeds. I would suggest something with a hybrid rocker/camber profile shape. Such as the rossignol one mag midwide, Custom Flying V wide. or something like the K2 Lifelike Wide Snowboard 160 or Ride Antic Wide Snowboard 162

@thehouseboardshop Thanks a bunch man, I'll look into them!

What about the Lib Tech's Attack banana or Skunk Apes, around 161/165?

Thanks in advance!

@Oblivion104 The Skunk Ape is a super sick board and with a waist width of 268 mm it would be a really good option.

@thehouseboardshop Great, thanks for the advice. I was looking at them yesterday, both the Attack Banana and the Skunk Ape and I liked those alot (look and the idea of it).

What is one of the best park boards but i can also do the entire mountain?(possibly inside of burton company). and can you also recommend a binding that can do the same?
