Burton Process – ($499.95)
If you’re familiar with the art of sliding down a snow-covered hill, then odds are that you’ve heard of Burton. There’s a reason for that, and it’s the Process.

Thriving throughout the whole hill, the Process snowboard is an absolute master as it continues to shave ounces while cranking the pop.

Gilson Fly – ($749.00)
Pouncing on the pinnacle of powder planks, the Gilson Fly Snowboard zooms past all other wannabes with its unwavering dedication to good times in the fluffy stuff. A set back stance between the high-surface-area nose and a submerged swallow tail effortlessly lifts you out of the snow for a surf-inspired ride that refuses to wear out your back leg. The uniquely designed Pow Funnel and Channel deliver extra lift, while a stiffer flex pattern lets you cook up some snappy turns and deep carves. If you’re looking for the best snowboard for powder riding, you’ll be stoked you chose the Gilson Fly whether there’s a few inches of freshies or a metric butt ton of big P.
Arbor A-Frame – ($649.95)
Born in the fires of performance, the Arbor A-Frame Snowboard has never (and shall not) shy away from a gnarly line. Listen, this ATV is a classic, but this year, it comes with a twist. Jump on it while you can, because this model promises to perform whenever high speeds and deep cuts are desirable. Those Grip-Tech contact points ensure your edge hold remains superior no matter how chundery the chunder. A dose of mild taper in the tail enables you to float the pow like a prince while remaining locked and loaded for any bump in your path. This is undoubtedly a power plank that slices through any terrain with authority. Want to crush it all? Bunk up with the A-Frame.

Evil twins get a bad rap, but this snowboard is here to set the record straight.
Salomon Bellevue – ($499.95)
When it comes to women’s snowboards, the Salomon Bellevue is gaining traction as a female fave this season, and we’d be remiss if we didn’t acknowledge the ascension of this wicked ripper.
