snowboard

A snowboard is a flat, elongated board designed for gliding over snow. It is used in the sport of snowboarding, where a person stands sideways on the board, secured with bindings, and navigates winter slopes by shifting body weight and using edges to control direction and speed. Snowboards vary in shape, size, and flexibility to suit different styles such as freestyle, alpine, or all-mountain riding. The equipment is made from materials like wood, fiberglass, and foam to provide durability, stability, and responsiveness, enabling riders to perform tricks, carve turns, and enjoy winter outdoor recreation.
