Im looking for a new women's snowboard for the coming season (working in the Alps all winter) and I need some advice or some suggestions as to what kind or what make or model of board might be right for me.
I worked a season last year but only snowboarded for the last 3 months of it. I would say that my level is intermediate, I can handle blacks but not very well if theyre v mogully and haven’t yet tried any jumps or off piste. This season Im going to be snowboarding for the full 5 months so I will hopefully progress quite a lot and I want a board which will help me progress. I’m not too bothered about jumps and rails but I do want to try off piste. Last season I rode a K2 moment which I got on quite well with.
Can anyone recommend a board??! I’m looking for something from a previous season (cheap!). I’m totally in love with the design of the Technine Dime women’s white/silver board but I don’t want to go ahead and buy something just because of the pretty colours!
Arghhhh help!

Welcome
How tall are you, weight and size feet?
The best thing to do is going to TSA or Two Seasons and demo board so you get one that feels right for you.

Im 5'10.5", 11 stone and foot size 8. I have been riding a 156
I live in the middle of nowhere and I can't drive so Im pretty stuck for getting anywhere! Do you know much about the Technine DIme? I think it's an intermediate board so I dont know if it would be suitable for someone who (hopefully) will be progressing quite a lot this season

A guy on here called oneloveofboardsports is a rep, imports, sells or something (sorry don't know your title) deals with T9 stuff so could tell you more.
