A word from the product manager
During snowboard lessons, instructors teach children very quickly to slide back so they are immediately comfortable in both directions. Based on this observation, this board is designed with a Twin Tip shape (symmetrical at the front and back). These kids’ freestyle snowboards are also the most versatile because they ride as well on piste as at the edges of the piste.
Choosing the right size
Kids grow up, which makes it a difficult choice. The right size quickly becomes too small, but you can’t go for one that’s too big, otherwise it will be difficult to learn and may put them off. Let’s say -10 cm compared to their size is the maximum snowboard size, and -25 cm is the minimum. This 135-cm board is therefore suitable for kids from 1.45 m (-10 cm) to 1.6 m (-25 cm).
The board grows with your child
Kids grow around 6 cm per year. Ideally, they can keep their board for at least 2 years. That’s why we offer 2 position options for bindings: - in year 1, on the 4 inserts closest to the centre of the board - in year 2, on the 4 inserts farthest from the centre of the board But you can also sell the snowboard second-hand!
Technical information
Width Front 275 mm/Centre 238 mm, Rear 275 mm Radius 7.0 m Effective edge 1,020 mm. 2 x 6 (2 possible positions per binding/40 mm between each) Recommended stance: 460 mm
When should you wax your snowboard?
Decathlon snowboards are sold already waxed. Like all snowboards, they require regular maintenance: - either at the beginning of the season to start with an optimal glide, or at the end of the season so that the wax protects the base all summer long.
Glide quality: extruded base
The bases are made from polyethylene: - extruded base, with a certain density of polyethylene - sintered base, with a greater density of polyethylene (fewer holes, more PE) An extruded base provides a normal glide and good resistance over time.A sintered base is top quality. Excellent glide.
