Cheaper than rental for a kids snowboard but you would need to put some bindings and a stomp pad on it before you could use it. Unless you can find some cheap bindings that fit your kids boot size, (oh add boots to that earlier list) not sure what you do with it. I've never seen this brand before but for a kid new to boarding they would be worth a look.
Do not need a stomp pad lol.
Purchased one of these a month back for my boys (12 & 14) to take on a trip to the snow. Not a "real" snow board, but they had a ball with it. It has plastic bindings on the board, so no need to buy anything else. Cheaper then hiring, but may not be allowed on the proper ski/board runs?? We just used it next to the toboggan run.
May be cheaper than renting, but really, putting your child in those plastic bindings? What you save in rental fees you'll probably have to pay in medical fees. And then some.
Yep, didnt know it was a toy and not a real snowboard. Totaly agree!
just watch out for those bloody skiers :)
Are you serious? Most of the lower end bindings are plastic! It's all good though, we wrapped the kids in cotton wool, and all the trees in bubble wrap! In all seriousness though, these are (as suggested below) only suited to something like a toboggan run. But they seem tough enough, as I'm not small and had a go without it even looking like breaking. Sorry for the slow response, I've been busy fitting an airbag to the kids billy cart.
I suppose I am serious. The sides of the binding are strapped directly to the bottom of the board. There's no anchor point for the binding strap to pivot about when turning. On conventional bindings, the side strap is anchored to the footpad, which is then attached by a screw and pivot lock to the top of the board. These bindings are raised off a little platform point allowing the stress to be translated through multiple surfaces. With these particular bindings, all stress from turning and stopping is then applied directly to that joint. These vs. a conventional binding presents a higher risk to separate from the board. I'm 21 and have no kids, but I assume somebody with kids would probably want to avoid cheaping out when it came to snow sports and safety gear, if it meant the safety of their child.
Only reason why I wanted to make a point of this is that during my time on the hills I've seen some pretty "creative" accidents, by people on beginner and training runs. I've seen people come out of their boots, come out of ski bindings and have taken themselves and other people out in the process. Quality of gear is paramount to having fun in a safe manner. Call me over protective, but sh*t happens.
wish i could get one and go Sandboarding
dude I have a snowboard (Brisbane) without bindings, you want to buy it for cheap? makes a great sandboard
edit: just saw you are in perth
These are just moulded plastic and are for toboggan runs only. But then they are only $9.99.
OP : I was at Anaconda on Saturday afternoon. They had a sign saying clearly that these were not to be used on lift runs.
That sounds like a challenge
That's a kids snowboard…..not a skateboard.
