    WTB: Snowboard - either now or after season

    Might be a long shot, but I just went today for the first time in two years and have decided I want to get back into it. Looking for something around 160cm. Shoot me what you have.
    Thanks.

      I got a Burton Motion 162. Great condition. It has clicker bindings and size 12 boots.

        Accord, I'd like to get everything for no more than $200 (excluding boots).


        grapedrink, could you get me pictures and an asking price? I don't know the terminology, what are clicker bindings (you don't mean step in right)? I wear 11-11.5 boots. I dunno how well a 12 would fit, but it may actually be alright.

          Yea I can get you pics. Whats your email.

          They are step in bindings and if you don't want them thats cool. I would sell the board alone. It depends what your snow is like to be able to use stepin bindings. Here in colorado I would not have it any other way.....

            then you're either gonna have to find an amazing deal, or ride terrible shit.

            you can get a used deck for 200. bindings ~$70.

            I would stay away from clickers. they are metal. snow adheres to metal. hence they freeze. not to mention they have no baseplate, heelcup, or highback, so when you carve they basically just tweak the bindings on the board, rather than the board responding.

            Some clicker bindings have heelcups and highbacks now, but they still have shitty baseplates, etc. i think they are very low quality.

            i say ride straps. regular straps. im not into flow bindings, I'm not into the whole sock for a binding idea. but i heard their stuff has been getting better.

            If you want to ride step ins, the only step in i would ever ride is the burton system. full baseplate/heelcup/highback, and the metal engagement pieces are teflon coated.

            also, if you have size 10.5 or smaller get a regular board, if you ahve 11 or bigger you may need a wide specific board (to prevent toe and heel drag). depends on the nose/waist/tail width though, which obviously varies by board

              I'd like to see the pictures first. I've used two types of step in bindings, and depending on how they are, they can be okay.

              my email is netcsk@gmail.com

              Preciate it.

                I'm not looking for anything amazingly nice, nor am I looking for new. I have plenty of friends that have gotten out around that range.

                I've yet to have problems with a normal sized board (11.5 boot), and heard that generally, over 12 requires the wider board (but like you said, it varies).
