STAUBER Summit Snowboard & Binding Package Size 128, 133, 138, 143, 148,153,158,161- Best All-Terrain, Twin Directional, Hybrid Profile Snowboard & Bindings for All Levels

So I had approx. 2 days of experience snowboarding when I decided I enjoyed it more than skiing and took the plunge. In summary, this is a great and forgiving board and is an excellent value for the money.I am 6' and 180lbs and purchased the 158" board. I think it was the best size for a beginner of my dimensions since it is relatively easy to turn yet you can still pickup decent speed without too much reverb. When actually boarding, I noticed a number of times where I thought to myself "I probably should have caught an edge", but I think the way the board is shaped creates more leeway and time to correct yourself before catching an edge. Not to say you can't catch an edge, but it is more difficult to do especially compared to rental boards. It doesn't mean that you won't fall... but your falls will be a lot easier to handle with the board slipping out from under you on turns vs. doing flips and landing really hard.Bindings were acceptable. I noticed some squeaking later in the trip which irritated me, but that could happen with any bindings. Word to the wise - do not rest your board on your boot on the lift like I am in the photo without precautions. The sharpness of the board ended up cutting up my right boot (which I consider my fault so I'm not holding it against the board).I believe this is as good a beginner board as any, and with the convenience of amazon (2 day shipping), it can't be beat. It really is a steal of a deal for all that you get considering any decent beginner set up at a Ski shop will set you back ~$500.

This package was purchased for my 11 year old daughter's first snowboard. The board and bindings are really good quality for the price. I didn't want to spend too much for a board that she will soon grow out of. The board itself has awesome graphics and is lightweight. Perfect for a beginner. The bindings that came with the package are also a good quality. What's nice is that the toe strap does have 2 adjustment points to accommodate different size boots but unfortunately the only issue we have is that my daughter has little feet and so the bindings were a bit big even when adjusting to the smaller size. When I emailed them asking if they had smaller sizes, I received a very quick response from David and while they did not have a smaller size, he did say I could return the bindings for a refund so that I could buy the right size. I was very grateful because my daughter really liked the board and he could have just as easily said that because it was a packaged deal, I was stuck with what I got. This showed me that he was serious about making sure we were satisfied with our purchase. I decided on keeping the bindings and making them work for what's left of the season and maybe by next year, my daughter will grow into them.

The board rides great and is a fair price. My first board and it rides so much better than the rentals i’ve used.

I'm new to snowboarding and hesitant to invest hundreds, even a thousand plus in new gear, but definitely didn't want to continue renting equipment. I found Stauber's Summit package but wasn't sure of the best sizing. There are tons of sizing recommendations based on height, weight, style, experience, etc. online, making it very confusing. Some say go shorter, some say go longer as a newbie and after initially ordering a kit, I asked a question and got a very fast response from the Stauber team indicating I should go a bit shorter.I received the board/binding kit and it's incredibly easy to set up, aside from understanding the best binding positioning. The (L) binding size fits my size 11 boots perfectly and the quality feels great. The design is solid and appealing. It took about 1 week to arrive.After a long day on the slopes, I did notice slight delamination and a crack on the nose of the board. I reached out to Stauber's support team with pictures, received a very quick response, and have been shipped a replacement board. The customer service response was exceptional.For a beginner looking to get on the slopes and learning snowboarding, this is a great option.

So happy I bought this board. I am 5 feet tall so it's hard to find a board that comes small enough in length for someone like me. The quality is awesome and the item arrived very quick and in good packaging. This is great board for someone that is beginner to intermediate.

I've been snowboarding for ~10 years and decided this was the year I wasn't going to pay for another rental. Having left things to the last minute, my purchase criteria were: quick delivery, nice graphic, economical but reliable. Stauber nailed it: I'm 6'2, 220lbs and went with the 158 inch board. I had a great ride and looking forward to taking it out again. Very impressed with the board, the feel and really like its matte finish. The bindings do the job and were initially easy to setup. After doing a few runs though, I decided to adjust one of the straps and found one of the adjustment eyes/holes (the one I needed) on the strap was slightly misaligned which resulted in difficulty threading the screw through it. I got it back in so I could continue snowboarding but damaged the screw head in the process. After getting back I reached out to Stauber to get a replacement screw which are unique because they have hinged covers. My intention was to have someone slightly stretch the rubber strap enough to compensate for the misalignment so I could get the screw in straight, but in addition to replacement screws, Stauber immediately sent new straps too! Now it all fits together no problem. Really good customer service, thanks! Very happy with the purchase and recommend to others.

Board is great but did not include the bindings. very disappointing.

This is my first snowboard. It was an awesome purchase. Great value for purchase. The quality of the board is great, very easy to ride, flexiable. I really like it, just all around I’m happy and I would recommend to intermediate skill level snowboarders
