What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I picked this up for a kid in my family who was trying snowboarding for the very first time, and the leash hole made it so easy to tow her around while she got her balance. The rocker shape kept her from catching an edge every five seconds, so she actually started smiling instead of getting frustrated."A very first day on a board should feel like a game, not a battle, and the Head Rowdy Flex w/ JR BOA + LytRide Jr Snowboard Package is built around exactly that idea. A leash hole tucked into the nose lets a grown up tow a brand new rider along the flats before standing and gliding solo even enters the picture, turning those nervous first minutes into something a lot closer to fun. The board backs that up with a full rocker shape that keeps edges forgiving through the wobbliest early turns, and a lightweight cap construction that's easy to maneuver for small arms and legs still learning balance. The JR BOA boot spins snug in seconds with no laces to fight, and its linerless shell means little feet slip in without a struggle. LytRide Jr bindings buckle up just as easily, even through mittens, and their adjustable sizing means this whole setup can stick around for more than one season of first days.
