 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi gang. I was looking to pickup a new snowboard deck this summer after having a bunch of smoking snowboards made in Lake Tahoe area for years. They are slowing down production so curious other good brands of small company hand made snowboards anyone likes that are all mountain but also powder first focused : hehe. Not trying to hate on the big producers but love small makers and folks trying new forms of boards.
Thanks,
NachoPow

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

A small snowboard would be about the size of a skateboard, I guess.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Being sarcastic, burton riglet comes in a 90cm
Being helpful, Stranda make some real nice looking boards. Been resisting throwing the cash down on a tree surfer split for months, and probably will give in before my season starts. There’s a shop near me with a few in stock and they look great, and I know a couple of people who ride them and say good things about them.

Maybe Weston for a smaller niche brand. I’ve a backwoods which is great for on and off piste and I don’t think I’ve seen another anywhere in the alps. Would love to give their Japow a go too
Not exactly a small company but amplid worth a look too for a happy medium ish sized brand. Again, I own one (singular) and they’re definitely not as common as capita/ burton/ k2 and the rest. Plus the singular at least is fantastic.

@NachoPow if you're based in the US, try Igneous Snowboards out of Jackson Hole, Wyoming.
