HOW TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT BOARD
How to choose your equipment the right size in length and width
There is a standard of measurement to make sure you choose the size of your board.
The height of the board is ideally between the chin and the forehead and is usually about 20 cm shorter than your height.
Just put it in front of you and see if your chin goes over without difficulty.
And to start learning smoothly, the kind of board you can look for are called “allround board / All-mountain.
Good to know
Softboots and fixtures are preferably of the same brand.
Remove the bindings on the board and make sure neither your boots nor the binding overflows.
