Popular Men's Snowboards

Get ready to fly! Our snowboard reviews are designed to help you weigh tradeoffs to find the best fit. We collaborate with riders and gear experts to review each snowboard based on carving (how well the board turns on its edge and slices through the snow without skidding), speed (how easy it is to go fast), and switch (the ability to ride with either foot forward). We update our rankings weekly based on SidelineSwap sales data.

Perfect board for:
Riders who want a floaty nose, tight sidecut, and maxim power tail.

The Lib Tech T. Rice Orca Snowboard is a versatile all-mountain board designed for advanced riders seeking a blend of freestyle and freeride performance. Built with Travis Rice's input, the Orca features a directional shape with a floaty nose for powder days and a powerful tail with "Whale Tail Technology" for maximizing pop and stability. The tight 7-meter radius sidecut ensures trench-carving precision on hardpack, while the wide body allows for comfortable riding and effortless maneuvering.

A rare and advanced piece of snowboarding progression from Lib Tech. It’s a wide, directional snowboard designed for power. Riding low-angle powder is a blast thanks to all the added buoyancy underfoot—in spite of the fact this this board was built for the steepest, deepest runs on earth. I wouldn’t recommend it for beginners, but it’s a great tool for bridging the gap into more advanced, all-terrain snowboarding when a rider is ready to challenge themselves.

Perfect board for:
Riders who want a versatile shape that excels in both all-mountain and freestyle.

The Ride WarPig features a Slim Wall construction with a fully 3-D composite structure over Slimewall® material. The shape has won multiple snowboarding tests, demonstrating its performance in both all-mountain and freestyle categories. The Tapered Bi-Radial Sidecut maximizes grip and allows for easy transitions, while the Performance Core delivers a balance of strength and lightness. The WarPig excels in carving, jumping, and big mountain lines, making it a top choice for riders looking to conquer any terrain.

This board is built wide and powerful, with snappy turns and satisfying ollies for its size. The WarPig’s directional build and bamboo core provides lots of bouyancy on a pow day. It’s been one of the most popular new shapes over the last five winters with good reason—but I personally would leave it in the quiver until the snow is deep.

Perfect board for:
Riders who want a little bit of freestyle flavor into their all-mountain riding.

The Rome SDS Ravine snowboard is a playful all-mountain board that excels in both powder and groomed terrain. With its Directional Diamond 3D nose, tapered shape, and Free-the-Ride Camber, the Ravine delivers exceptional floatation, maneuverability, and stability. The Carbon HotRods and Directional Double HotRods provide added responsiveness and pop. Whether you're carving turns or busting tricks, this board offers a fun and exciting ride. Available in both men's and women's models, the Ravine is perfect for riders seeking a reliable and versatile one-board.

This directional board is built around a large, powerful front end that helps it charge around the hill on a pow day. It’s width makes it a bit less responsive on hard pack (especially if your feet are small for the board) but if you’re comfortable throwing your weight around, you’re gonna love the extra size. It’s got pop in the pow—but I wouldn’t ride it in the park.
