Beginner / Improver Snowboard Choices (YES or CAPITA)?
I know this question has been asked to death but its my turn to tap into the knowledge of this sub.
My girlfriend is a beginner / improver snowboarder (one full week lessons in Europe, can link turns and early stage carving on greens, progressing to blues)
I am getting her a board for her birthday and have narrowed it down to the YES BASIC WOMENS and the CAPITA PARADISE
We will only be skiing in Europe, so best edge control on icy / firmer conditions would be useful, and forgiving as she's new
Any experience, recommendations, thoughts much appreciated!
