I am looking for a snowboard by Burton called the Vapor.  Is there any way I can find it somewhere for a lower cost than $900 or $750.  And is there anyway I could find next season's Shaun White board?

Jake, I buy all of my son's boards on EBay. Most large skate shops have an EBay account and they sell either complete boards or just decks for very reasonable prices. Shipping is typically around 11.00. Good luck finding a new one.

Hmm well i bough mine 2 years ago for 150$ but i bought professional. Mini Logo is a good board cost approximately 50$\nother parts like whiles and tenders cost like 60$ and 10$. If he is not good skateboarder and he wants to become good one you better buy one of them.

Discontinued you say. Those boards are still being sold in South Africa and I think Rectron in the UK still has stock but I think after export costs you might have been better off with something else. \n\nTry \nhttp://www.digitalplanet.co.za (prices are quoted in rands, R7 = $1 more or less).\n\n\nOkay yes you should have mentioned htat your concerns are related to the AGP slot, or at least i believe it is.\n\nEDIT: \nhttp://www.digitalplanet.co.za/shop/product.asp?StockID=58544\nbest you try and contact  them and make sure they can actually first get the board and secondly export it. Most of our e-tailers have items on theyr'e site which they might not actually be able to get. Not sutrre if it an ultra though. If they can get it and ship it it will set you back about $185 excluding shipping and import tax.

Well you could try http://www.womenssnowboard.com for some advice on this.  Essentially it all breaks down to preference, riding style, and location.  First figure out where you will be snowboarding. Then choose a slightly smaller board for jumps and tricks or a longer board for speed and slalom.  the board should be roughly the same size as you honestly unless you want to spin easier.\n\nThe boots will roughly translate across in size.  Burton make some good boots but I was a fan of the old airwalk boots for wearing all day long.

I honestly did not like the Vapor when I rode it. I much prefer the T6 which is stiffer. I did not find that the Vapor had the stability or response that I've come to expect from top-end boards like my T6. From what I hear it is more specifically a freestyle board (which is probably why I did not like it) however the core on the Vapor (and the T6 for that matter) is not designed to hold up to rails, boxes or any other obstacle good for jibbing. Don't get me wrong, these are very strong boards but they are not made for jibbing. If you've got a Fish for powder and want a board specifically for park riding get a Custom or an Uninc.

burton or kemper. thats all i ever use, and have been using for years. they both have some pretty mellow graphics, not super flashy. i she a beginner or advanced? fiberglass cores are nice. woodcores get waterlogged. metal edged to great turns!

Think about it as if you were buying it.  How much would you be willing to pay for it?  Don't get outrageous with the prices because most everything is probably used!  Good luck and have a lot of fun with it.  I am having one pretty soon!

I would suggest a resale store like Play It Again Sports or something like it.\n\nI don't know that you will be able to find all of that for under $60, but it will be a lot cheaper.\n\nYou never know what kind of deals you'll find at those places. I have no idea if something like that would be available to you, but it's the best way I know! Hope you can find it!

You're asking at a bad time. The snow season just started, and peak season happens towards mid-February, so most major retailers will squeeze what they can out of you because demand is high.\n\nI've found that Big 5 Sporting Goods usually has pretty good prices even though their selection is not as good as, say, Sport Chalet. But when they have a sale it's usually a pretty good deal. I'd say go and find what you can there, and whatever is left you'll just have to bite the bullet and get any mediocre discounts Sport Chalet can offer.

If you honestly can't tell the difference between boards I would go for one of those plastic boards that you can strap onto your sorels. They are about $15 at the hardware store.\n\nThis is not the time of year to be getting good cheap new gear, but try a local ski swap and try to find some used boots/bindings. Then at the end of the season get a pair of new boots 40% off. I really like burton boots/bindings. I just got a Rome deck and I'm loving it.\n\nPalmer sucks. I hope Sean Palmer burns in hell for making crappy decks.

i can't remember, but check out REI Outlet.  The last time they had a BIG SALE it was everything that had a price ending in $0.93.  There was a pair of hiking boots, normally $200, that I could have bought for $50. I passed... duh. \n\nI hope they have a sale soon! (sorry, i don't know when)

You need to go to Gander Mountain or a place like that and start trying on the different brands.  Each person is built different and what works for one might not work for someone else.\n\nYou can also check consumer reports for rating on quality and such.\n\nIf you can wait til they go on clearance you could get a better deal.  Sierratradingpost.com has overruns and seconds for less and sometimes has deals on shipping.
