We are often asked for recommendations on which snowboard shops are worth it to buy from. Most boardshops will say they know which is the right board for you. However, I hear more stories that sound like nightmares than I do of someone finding the right snowboard for them.
After several requests for finding a local snowboard shop, we decided to put a resource list together to help our readers find a local shop near them.
That resource is here.
*Disclaimer: We have not personally been to all the board shops listed on this map. This is just a resource we put together based on other rider’s feedback. Please do not hold us accountable for any experience you have by visiting one of these shops.
(Unless, ofcourse, if it is a solid experience.)
If you visit one of these board shops and they do not know about the gear reviews on Boardoftheworld.com, would you please tell them we sent you to their shop? We are looking to highlight a few shops on the list, and there is no better way to get that conversation started than by you having a great experience with our site and their shop.
If you need a little help trying to find a snowboard shop in your area, this resource will show you where and how to find a snowboard shop in your area.
Have an excellent time riding!

Steve Weber is the passionate snowboarder, skateboarder, and author behind Board of the World. He understands that most gear reviews focus on having the perfect snow conditions, but his testing methodology is different. Living in Pennsylvania, Steve describes exactly how a board performs when the conditions aren’t perfect. His reviews cover performance on ice, hardpack, and flat-out brick conditions. In other words, he reviews boards for the conditions that East Coast riders actually face.
Bringing 27 years of East Coast snowboarding and 21 years of skateboarding experience, Steve is a 42-year-old intermediate park rider. His recommendations are informed by decades of battling icy conditions, ensuring every review accounts for the board’s performance on the roughest of terrain.
For the last five years, Steve has poured his passion into writing in-depth, unbiased reviews that help riders make informed decisions about the gear they’ll use. He also works part-time at a snowboard shop in Northeastern Pennsylvania, which gives him a direct line to learning about the new gear tech months in advance. When he’s not writing reviews, Steve is often found riding at Montage Mountain and testing out new boards.
Steve’s goal with Board of the World is simple: to help every reader find the right gear so they can have fun outside from the first time they use it.
