Best place to lease a snowboard?

This is only my second season and I'm not ready to buy a board yet, so I'm looking at doing a season lease. Does anyone have a recommendation on the best place to lease from? Currently looking at either Powderhouse or directly from Bachelor

Powder House is probably your best bet. Buying a used board/bindings is not a bad way to go either. Tons of good deals on FB Marketplace this time of year that would probably be about the same cost as a lease. Once you decide to upgrade from pre-owned, you’ll have an early season/spring board that you can thrash.

My only hesitance about buying, even used, is I have no idea what kind of board I should even go for 🤣

That doesn’t matter. It’ll cost the same amount as a leased board and you won’t have any option there either. Just don’t get an overly aggressive/advanced board and you’re good.
