Default Hey Snowboard guys....

I wanna buy this board...

I'm a beginner... I just need something to throw around and learn on.

http://www.steepandcheap.com/



<H2>Features:

Lengths: 149cm, 152cm, 155cm, 158cm, 161cm Effective Edge: [155cm] 120.2cm Waist Width: [155cm] 25.0cm Sidecut Radius: [155cm] 7.8m (Radial) Middle Stance Width: [155cm] 22in (56cm) Stance Setback: 0.4in (1cm) Core Material: Select Wood Base: Sintered Extruded IS 4400 Recommended Use: Freestyle, park, pipe, jibs
</H2>

The Head Tribute Snowboard is ready to take the terrain park by storm straight outta the box. Head de-tuned this twintip's edges and waxed up the extruded base so you can ride right to the features without worrying about catching an edge. But don't get us wrong—the Tribute isn't just a slick jib stick; it also excels in the pipe and off hits. When you drop into the pipe, Intelligence fibers in the tip and tail add stability so you don't wash out, and the select wood core has plenty of pop for boosting off kickers. A semi-transparent base and low-key graphics let your riding speak for itself.

Well? Should I get it? It's cheap and it is just a starter h:

It's a park/pipe board....I'd get an all around board to learn on.

For an absolute beginner I'd recommend the Forum Recon. I've seen SaC offer it several times for like ~$135ish.
