Get Great Snowboard Deals During the Summer

Snowboard technology changes from season to season, so if you are still riding the same snowboard and boots you did years ago then you need to buy some new stuff...

Especially if you have old boots. The facts are that no matter what your snowboard boot, the liners are only going to live to see about 60-65 days of riding and after that, because of the constant wetting and drying, they will expand and eventually stop your riding dead. Snowboards are constantly being updated and innovated with new sidecuts, new lightweight materials, different flexes, and base patterns. Just like in the computer world, if your snowboard is more than two seasons old than it is probably outdated.

It sounds crazy but I recommend purchasing a new set of snowboard boots each season and a new snowboard every one to three seasons depending on how you ride (the more you ride the earlier you should buy, you may even break your snowboard before three seasons is up). Since boots are easily $150-$400 and snowboards $300-$600 you probably aren't seeing that happening soon.

The good news is that I could not have picked a better time to let you know, because now that the end of the season is here and summer is upon us you can expect deals up to and possibly more than 50% off! I'm not just talking about used product or things that are from seasons ago. Brand new merchandise from last year usually goes on a huge price cut right about now. Get a new set of everything for under the cost of the snowboard alone! Boards, boots, bindings, and outerwear are all given away for huge end of the year discounts.

To get the goods to go to the top next season all you have to do is check around your local skate/snowboard shops first. If you live in an area where snowboarding isn't the prominent focus then you can usually land the last seasons top snowboards for the cheapest prices right at home. If you don't have a shop near your home than you can go through the Internet. There are tons of online snowboard shops and rest assured that they all participate in the end of season savings. I personally recommend DogFunk.com, which has an enormous selection of snowboard gear not to mention some huge end of season savings and the best prices on the hottest snowboard gear all year long.

Take advantage now or suffer the full price consequences next season. It's your choice!
