Choosing the right snowboard size can be difficult, and if you ask a couple of mates (or the internet) what size to go for, chances are they're going to be wildly different answers. Here at Melbourne Snowboard Centre, we have come up with a simple solution to finding your perfect board size.

Firstly, try not to get overwhelmed by all the tech talk of cambers and flex ratings, there's so much information out there but initially you need to consider four main points: weight, height, ability and where you spend your time riding.

Most manufacturers give a recommended rider weight for each snowboard in their range. We have tried to include this data on all of our snowboard pages to make it easier for you to consider your options and find the right board. The range is really only a suggestion and if you find yourself outside the range, that's fine too. It also comes down to personal preference; if you find yourself below the range the board may feel a bit stiffer, and if you're above the range you might find it rides a bit softer.

Weight & Height

If this is the first board you're purchasing and you previously hired, you'll be used to the rental place sizing you up and putting you on any board that falls roughly anywhere from your chin to your nose. This is fine for an average height/weight rider however, it doesn't take into consideration the most important factor when choosing the correct size snowboard, your weight.

When you're riding your snowboard, you're using your weight to control the board. Weight determines how the board will flex, after all, your board responds to the weight that's on top of it and not how tall you are. This is why we always recommend choosing a board on weight and height rather than height alone.

Where You Ride

This is important because some styles of riding require longer or shorter boards. If you spend more time in the park it is helpful to size down slightly to make quicker turns, faster spins and have more control while buttering through boxes and rails. If you prefer chasing powder and traveling overseas you may want a slightly longer board, the added surface area will help you float above the snow much like a surfboard in water. Typically for the average rider in Australia we recommend a slightly smaller board compared to what we might recommend to someone traveling overseas.

Below we have made a chart that will assist you in figuring out what snowboard size is right for you. As long as you fit inside the board size range you shouldn’t notice too much of a difference:

When Snowboards say that they are WIDE it generally means they are for riders with a boot size of US 12 or bigger. This is a very generalised way of thinking and the true answer lies with the waist width of the board.

We have tried to include waist width's on all our snowboard descriptions to make it easier to figure out if you need a WIDE board or a MID-WIDE board. Below is a chart which converts the waist size to shoe sizes. It is always best to double check the waist size of the board before automatically trusting company's definitions of WIDE. Unfortunately some companies will exaggerate what is a wide, mid-wide or normal width snowboard.

Wide Board: 260mm+ waist width

Great for guys size 12 boot (US) and bigger

Mid-Wide: 255-260mm waist width

Great for mens 10-12 boot (US)

Normal: 245-255mm waist width

This is where the majority of board sizes sit. Guys with US boot size 8-10 should avoid wider boards. Also Women with size 10 boots can also ride these boards.

Narrow: 235-245mm waist width

This is the size of the majority of women's boards. Some mens boards also fall into this category and can be ridden by men with US size 8 shoe and smaller or any womens boot size.

Do I have to ride a wide board if I have bigger feet?

You should always try to match your shoe size to the width of the board. Ideally you want a bit of your boot to hang over the board on each side so you can leverage your board from toe-side to heel-side. If it hangs over too much your toes and heels will catch the snow and knock you over. If your feet don't hang over enough you will have to work much harder just to tip the board on edge.

Can women ride mens snowboards? Can men ride womens snowboards?

Surprisingly this happens more with girls than with guys. They'll get given a hand me down from a guy that is way too wide and stiff for their weight and strength. The construction of men and womens boards are different for a reason and womens boards are generally slightly softer than mens boards. Riding a board that is too wide and too stiff will mean it is more difficult to get the board up on an edge. You can easily avoid a situation of riding the incorrect board size by following our Snowboard sizing guide.

Weight (kg)	Average Board Size (cm)	Board Size Range (cm)

The 2025 Ride MTNPIG is a wild animal that is not to be taken lightly. Ready to buck at any moment, the MTNPIG is designed to be handled only by advanced riders with steely resolve and the thirst for adventure. Featuring a strong flex and camber profile with a tapered shape and linear quadratic sidecut, you can expect the MTNPIG to provide smooth, powerful turns, effortless float in powder, stable speed on groomers, if you have the skills to tame it.

Board Type: Groomers / Powder

Camber Type: Tapered Directional Hybrid Camber

A longer, more pronounced rocker zone in the nose makes this board want to float, while camber underfoot maintains stability and pop for powering through powder and carving on groomers.

Flex: Aggressive

This board has a stiff, aggressive flex that performs best when riding hard, fast, and powerful.

Shape: Tapered Directional

The MTNPIG has a tapered directional shape, with a wider longer nose and shorter narrower tail, so it wants to ride forwards. It can handle a bit of switch, but riding your natural stance is where it will shine.

Core: Performance Core

Sustainable Aspen wood combined with Bamboo and Paulownia for a snappy lightweight board that balances weight and strength perfectly.

Double Impact Plates

Two plates inserted underfoot take vibration out of your ride and add extra durability.

Carbon Infused Glass

Poppier, lightweight glass that handles speed incredibly well while reducing weight.

Carbon Array 5 Laminates

5 Widespread carbon stringers gather rider input, which is channelled through to the opposite contact point for maximum board control. It distributes power throughout the board for a steady ride, adding pop without stiffness.

Base: Sintered, Stone Ground

High-end sintered 4000 p-tex base material that is more durable, harder and faster than extruded.

Inserts: 2x4

Additional Features:

Slimewalls - A RIDE exclusive, incorporating Urethane sidewall technology to absorb impact and make for a smoother ride. These are also the most durable sidewalls in snowboarding, meaning you can really thrash them, and they will hold their own.

Carbon Slimewalls - This sidewall construction consists of carbon and regular slimewall material combined and strategically placed at the inserts out to the contact points in the tip and tail on a twin, and the back inserts to the contact points in the tail on a directional board. This moves pop to the outside edges, enhancing stability and response.

Roll In Construction - Fiberglass structures that surround the built in Slimewalls to increase durability, prevent top sheet chipping, and keep the weight down.

Tapered Linear Quadratic Sidecut - This sidecut allows for smooth turn initiation and powerful support through the turn without losing grip.
