Should I buy a snowboard in the summer?

If you look for a board in the offseason, you’re likely to find a better deal because demand is down. The warmer months (spring and summer) can be the best time to buy. If you absolutely want or need a snowboard to either get out on the snow or start to practice, the best time to buy is right now.

How many years will a snowboard last?

As long as your board is stored dry, well supported and waxed, it can last for over 10 years in storage without deteriorating too much. Most riders store their boards for about 6 months in between seasons each year.

Do longer snowboards go faster?

Length by itself will not make a snowboard go faster. It is mass that matters. Assuming that two boards are made of the same material and the same thickness, then a longer board will have more mass and will therefor be pulled down by gravity a bit faster.
