Hi, I'm from the UK and have planned a trip to Winter Park, Colorado in
February. I've snowboarded at least twice a year from the age of 16 (23 now)
and still have my original snowboard (Burton Motion) Bindings and Boots. My
board has been through it all and is looking a little worn out!

I'm looking to purchase a new board, boots and bindings. Will definitely be
making my purchase out in the US as the exchange rate is in my favour.
Looking for some advice as to what people recommend. I'm not familiar as to
which are the better brands of boards. I've heard that Forum are very good?
Money is not an object, I really want to treat myself to some really decent
kit.

The type of boarding I enjoy, mostly free riding (quite fast!) powder and
the odd trick & jump. I don't want a board that's just dedicated for
snowparks (freestyle??). Looking for a decent all rounder really! I would
consider myself quite an advanced snowboarder (less so in the snowpark, such
as rails).

Would be really grateful for any feedback, hope I've given enough
information.

Gareth
