Introducing our guide to the best women’s snowboards for the upcoming ski season. We’ll dive into what each snowboard does well and what type of rider the snowboard will be best suited for. Before shopping let’s go over some basics about riding style and board types.

Every snowboard has a vast array of tech features built into it that make it more catered for certain conditions and certain riders. Some of these features include flex-level, rocker vs. camber, shape, etc. Based on these features, in-bounds snowboards can be broken down into roughly four categories: All-mountain, freeride, freestyle, and powder. Continue reading as we help you decide which type of snowboard to choose.

Snowboard Styles

All-Mountain snowboards are designed with versatility in mind. These snowboards are forged for the rider who relishes in cruising the entire mountain and ski resort: groomers, glades, moguls, park and powder. All-mountain snowboards generally have a medium amount of flex that offers solid control at speed but is still flowy, with a combination of rocker and camber that creates the perfect all-mountain ride.

Freeride snowboards are generally built for more aggressive, expert riders who want to get off the groomed slopes. Freeride boards excel in off-piste riding, charging through variable snow at high speeds. They are usually built with a stiffer flex for optimal responsiveness at high speeds, with a cambered profile for idealized edging.

Freestyle snowboards tend to have softer flex and are designed to be playful and forgiving. They are often ridden in shorter sizes that make the board more agile. This makes freestyle snowboards ideal for experienced park riders looking for a park board and beginner all-mountain riders alike since they are easy to maneuver.

Powder snowboards are built for advanced riders surfing deep snow. They generally have a directional shape that helps keep weight on your back foot and are built with a fat nose to maximize surface area and floatation through fresh snow. Powder boards are often built with rocker to make them super flowy and fun to ride in the deeper snow.

These categories are helpful in searching for a women’s snowboard but are not the end-all-be-all of what a board can do. Most snowboards available today are capable of all-mountain riding but excel in one of these categories. As you start shopping for snowboards, one of the most important considerations is the snowboard size. OnTheSnow’s snowboard sizing chart is a good place to start.
