Roxy

Poppy Snowboard Package - 2024 - Kids'

The Roxy Rocker is a specific snowboard profile where the center of the board is raised. This design helps with floatation in powder snow and makes turning easier. For beginners, this means a more forgiving ride, allowing you to learn and improve your skills without feeling overwhelmed.

A twin shape snowboard is symmetrical, meaning both ends are identical in shape and flex. This allows riders to easily switch between riding forward and backward (regular and switch). It’s perfect for freestyle riding and tricks, as it provides equal performance in both directions.

The flex of a snowboard indicates how stiff or flexible it is. A soft flex means the board is more forgiving and easier to maneuver, making it ideal for beginners. It allows for smoother turns and a more comfortable ride, helping you gain confidence as you learn.

The effective edge is the portion of the snowboard that makes contact with the snow during turns. A longer effective edge provides better stability and grip, which is crucial for control, especially at higher speeds. Conversely, a shorter effective edge allows for quicker turns, making it easier for beginners to navigate.

Speed strap bindings are designed for quick entry and exit, featuring adjustable straps that allow you to get in and out of your bindings faster. This is particularly beneficial for younger or beginner riders who may find traditional bindings challenging, making the overall snowboarding experience more enjoyable.

When selecting a snowboard, consider your skill level and riding style. If you're a beginner, look for a board with a Roxy Rocker profile and soft flex for easier maneuverability. If you enjoy freestyle riding, a twin shape will allow you to perform tricks in both directions. Additionally, consider the effective edge length for stability and the convenience of speed strap bindings for a hassle-free experience.
