This is the only place I go to buy my boards and gear. I tried going to Big5, but the quality is average at best. Sports Chalet is ok, but their prices are too steep and don't have the professional help and knowledge that is needed for you to find the right board and gear. Then there is Powder and Sun, my go to place for all my snowboarding needs. The staff is super helpful, friendly and extremely knowledgable because everyone that works there are boarders and have a passion for it. Prices are very reasonable and post and pre season sales are the best! When you're ready to finally buy your own board or just pick up some new gear to feed your addiction, there isn't any better place to go than Powder and Sun.
