Top 5 Best Powder Snowboards of 2024-2025

If the snow is coming down and accumulating fast at your home mountain, it's time to strap into a powder board. Having the right board on a powder day makes all the difference; your park board likely won't cut it when the snow is too deep. You will need a board with greater volume to keep you afloat in that fresh snow. Lucky for you, we have selected a variety of powder-specific boards to suit your needs. 

Powder boards come in various shapes, sizes, and camber profiles. Depending on where you plan to ride on the mountain, you may gravitate towards a different shape or length of the board. If you are riding in the trees, you may want a shorter, wider board to be more maneuverable through those tight lines. If you want to take runs in the upper bowls and take big sweeping turns, a long swallowtail with a rocker camber profile may be your choice. To explore more and find the best powder board for you, check out our hand-picked list of the top 10 powder and freeride snowboards for the 2024-2025 season.
