What is the difference between curved & straight snowboards?

Saturday, August 29th, 2009

My friend is looking for his first snowboard and is looking for more an economy model. However, he does not know the difference and what he should look for in snowboards (heck neither do I)

He says he is not doing terrain park and will spend most of his time going downhill on mountains. We also do not know if we should go for weight class or height and I would really love help for this.

He is 175lbs, 6"3′ (I think I did that right) if that helps. Thank you!

What do you mean by "curved" and "straight"…

Anyway, he should get a board somewhere in the size range of 156-159
