Your snowboard is your most crucial piece of equipment. Different boards come with varying stat bonuses, affecting your Speed, Trick, Air, Grind, and Stability. As you progress through the game and earn cash, you'll unlock new and better boards in the 'Shop' located in the lodge.
- Beginner Boards: Offer minimal bonuses, good for learning.
- Intermediate Boards: Provide moderate bonuses, often specializing in one or two stats (e.g., a 'Speed' board or a 'Trick' board).
- Advanced/Pro Boards: Offer significant bonuses across multiple stats, making them highly desirable. These are usually expensive and unlocked later in the game.
Choosing a Board: Consider the event type. For races, prioritize boards with high Speed and Boost bonuses. For trick events, look for boards that enhance Trick and Air. For all-around performance, seek boards with balanced, high-level bonuses. check the 'Board Stats' in the shop before purchasing.
