Kids' Snowboards & Kids' Snowboard Packages
Snowboards for Children
Snowboarding is a highly favoured winter sport among children, often chosen as an alternative to skiing. Youngsters can easily advance on junior snowboards if the board is the correct size in terms of length and width. Some children adore the thrill of speeding down the slopes, whilst others relish the freedom of exploring at their own leisurely pace.
The vital equipment required for children's snowboarding includes a kids' snowboard, kids' snowboard boots, and kids' snowboard bindings. These can be purchased as a package deal or separately. Opting for our kids' snowboard package usually offers the best value. To ensure your child is outfitted suitably for snowboarding, take a look at our Ski Socks, Snow Gloves, Snow Trousers, Ski Jackets, and Midlayers.
At What Age Can Children Begin Snowboarding?
Parents frequently inquire about the age at which their child can start snowboarding. The smallest youth snowboards cater to children as young as 3 years old, which aligns with the developmental stage where they possess sufficient motor skills to grasp the fundamentals. Most children's snowboard schools accept students from the age of 3.
How to Choose the Correct Snowboard Size for Your Child
The appropriate snowboard size for your child is primarily determined by their height. As a general guideline, the board's length should measure somewhere between your child's chest and nose heights. For beginners, a snowboard closer to chest height is ideal, whereas advanced children might prefer one closer to nose height. Snowboards measuring 80 cm are amongst the smallest available and are suitable for 3-year-old children (approximately 95 cm in height).
