Whether your child is a sports enthusiast and is at home on the slopes, or is just getting ready for his first winter slide, you need to pay attention to the selection of snowboard "gear".
What to look out for?
We bring you valuable advice from an experienced former racer, designer and creator of Beany snowboards, Roman Blazek.
What is the most important? Say NO to shrinking and heavy boards.
You've probably heard us warn you several times that a child is not a small adult. Therefore, snowboards that are just a smaller version of adult ones are not and cannot be suitable for him. An adult board has a certain thickness that is adequate to their height. However, if such a snowboard is reduced to the height of the child, it will be too heavy and the child will have great difficulty turning on it, because the board has to bend a little in the arc.
So what snowboard should you definitely not get?
- Too short or too long - the length of the board should be between the mouth and the nose
- Too heavy and hard
- Cheap, poor quality materials - the ride will be neither comfortable nor safe
For the smallest snowboarders and juniors
Snowboards Beany are a great partner. We have developed the unique Responsive Technology for their production, which consists of a demanding and precise sanding of the wooden core and special folding of the laminates. "This makes our snowboards very light and perfectly soft in flex and hard in torsion. They are made to suit the needs of children so that they are great to ride, and also so that they are fun to ride. Children are our advisors when choosing designs and their opinion is very important to us when deciding on the final look of the board," says Roman.
The most popular option for beginner snowboarders is the playful Beany COCO in a unisex design that is suitable for both girls and boys.
Snowboards can be bought separately or as a set with bindings and boots.
