Adult Snowboard Size Chart

For any snowboarder, there isn't "one perfect length". To find the best snowboard length for you, we recommend starting with your weight and ability. From there, you can modify the length based on your riding style and preferred terrain. Note that height has traditionally been used for sizing snowboards, but rider weight is a more accurate way to determine sizing as it considers response and board flex. Please use the following charts to dial in the correct size length range for your needs.

Now that your snowboard length is determined, use the Snowboarding Style and Snowboarding Terrain charts to customize your length:

Snowboarding Style

Cautious  minus 2cm
Average no change
Aggressive plus 2 cm

 *Snowboarding style is not determined by skill range.  Many athletic beginners may choose aggressive if they are prefer to ride fast but are still learning technique.  Advanced snowboarders may choose cautious if they prefer to ride at lower speeds and are primarily concerned about control.

Snowboarding Terrain

Groomers/Frontside  no change
All Mountain plus 2 cm
All Mountain/Powder plus 4 cm
Freestyle minus 2 cm

 

Now that you have found your ideal length, any snowboard 2cm longer or shorter falls into your size range. For example, if your final length is 158cm, and you're looking at purchasing a board within the 156-160 cm range, you're all set.  If two different snowboard lengths fall into your ideal range, a general guideline is that the shorter length will typically offer more maneuverability, while the longer length will offer more stability at speed.
