Geospace Sledsterz: Best Budget Snowboard

Though adorable, kids can be a pain sometimes, taking over all the screens to play video games and watch cartoons. Luckily, Geospace's Sledsterz allows you to enjoy the peace and quiet you need to binge on your favorite adult shows.

This snowboard suits kids aged 6-12 and comes in five colors providing many choices. Its sturdy bindings come with three settings providing the perfect fit for any type of shoe. So you won't have to buy expensive snow shoes for your kid.

The Geospace Sledsterz is the best snowboard for any kid who wants a good time in the backyard. With its adjustable bindings and plenty of colors, your kid stays safe while having loads of fun.

Emsco Group: Best Snowboard for Kids

The Emsco Group is the perfect board for young snowboarders to start their journey. This board fits ages 5-15, making it more accommodating than Sledsterz.

It’s also a bit more stylish than Geospace Sledsterz, though slightly pricier. However, it comes in two colors, silver, and tie-dye, making it less diverse than Sledsterz at five.

Still, the board's solid polyethylene construction ensures durability, while its flexible bindings provide comfort and support.

Hence, it's an excellent board for any beginner snowboarder, though you'll spend a few more dollars than its Geospace competitor.

Burton Stylus: Best Snowboard for Women

Burton Stylus is what every female rider needs. Its perfect symmetrical design helps you boost your balance, while the smooth surface ensures no more slipping and sliding.

It has a Fly 900G wooden core that ensures sturdiness while allowing pop and flexibility. The board also has a 100-200 pounds capacity and is available in four sizes for versatility.
