Stomp Pad
[edit]The following section doesn't sound grammatically correct. I am terrible at grammar so if someone else wants to fix this? Burtonbluntsnowboard (talk) 01:13, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- Placed between the bindings, but closer to the rear binding the Stomp pads' purpose is to allow the rider to better control the board with only one boot strapped in, such as when maneuvering onto a chair lift, riding a ski tow or performing a one footed trick.
- I attempted to make it less awkward sounding. OhNoitsJamie Talk 04:59, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
- Great edit, sounds perfect! If I changed some of the other sections to be a little more up-to-date would you mind going through and fixing my terrible grammar whenever you had a chance? OlafBerserker (talk) 19:50, 15 January 2013 (UTC) formerly Burtonbluntsnowboard
- Sure, leave a note on my talk page and I'll give it a once over. OhNoitsJamie Talk 22:51, 15 January 2013 (UTC)

Board Type
[edit]This section needs completely re-written in my opinion. I think there should be 3 separate distinctions in board type.
- Type of:
- Camber(Camber(normal), Reverse Camber(Rocker), Hybrid, and possibly S-Rocker and Flat)
- Board Shape(Directional, Twin like, Twin)
- Style(Freestyle, Freeride, All Mountain, Split Board)
What are other peoples views on this? I also strongly believe that Camber should be moved from board construction and put into board type OlafBerserker (talk) 04:46, 16 January 2013 (UTC)
- That sounds great, that is a really good idea 174.45.55.225 (talk) 18:32, 4 January 2023 (UTC)
I think this needs to be re-written as well. I attempted to do so yesterday, but my attempt was over written. I think this section should be divided into three; Board Anatomy and shape in which a snowboard's parts are explained (nose, tail, base, edge, etc.) Board Profiles (camber, Rocker, Flat, Rocker-Camber Combo), and Board Styles (All-Mountain, Freestyle, and Alpine) User: libraryladyinvt — Preceding unsigned comment added by Libraryladyinvt (talk • contribs) 14:05, 26 September 2018 (UTC)
Snowboard
[edit]I’m surprised that Dimitri Milovich is not given at least partial credit for the invention of the modern snowboard even though Winterstick, his company, was mentioned. Milovich had the first patent on the modern snowboard. 2601:647:CB02:7190:D5E:2169:BCF5:3434 (talk) 17:07, 10 March 2022 (UTC)
