How do you decide how long a child's snowboard needs to be?

I understand that the child%26#039;s weight and height are considered. Perhaps their level of experience matters too? (Mine are beginners, but with pretty good strength and coordination.)


Is there a formula?


A web site?


I don%26#039;t want to take them to a sporting goods store and just let them tell us what they need. We can%26#039;t afford that. We are only looking at second hand equipment. It also doesn%26#039;t have to be a perfect match. It would be nice to be able to use the stuff for a couple years; maybe buy new boots if the bindings can adjust a few sizes.

go on www.wiredsport.com/snowfacts.htm You email them with sort of snowboarding you do, height, weight etc and they tell you best size
Reply:The board should come up about to their chin. It can be a little bit longer and this will give them a little bit more stability. as long as it is around that length though it won%26#039;t make much of a difference.
Reply:it goes to their chin, if you stand it up to measure their height.





it should be able to come up and they rest their chin on it!





I%26#039;ve heard this many times, and I live in the state that has %26quot;the greatest snow on earth%26quot;





good luck! ~I think the sporting goods store can help you out a lot. They know best! have fun~
Reply:height between noise and neck (middle of neck) longer = easier shorter is lighter
