What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I grabbed this whole setup for a young rider in my family who was still nervous on snow, and being able to strap into everything herself made a noticeable difference in her confidence. By the end of the lesson she was laughing her way down the hill instead of white knuckling every turn."Learning to ride goes a lot smoother when a kid can manage their own gear, and the Nitro Spirit w/ Mini Grom + Charger Micro Snowboard Package is built around exactly that kind of independence. Head out for a first lesson on the bunny hill, and hook and loop straps on the Mini Grom Boot mean kids can buckle in themselves before a grown up even finishes lacing their own boots. The Spirit Snowboard's soft flex and Flat-Out Rocker keep turns forgiving and catch free, so the day is full of cruising and laughing instead of fighting the board underneath. Once boots meet bindings, the Charger Micro's easy entry buckles and Speed Wheel 3. 0 let tiny hands click in and go without waiting on help, while a 3D OptiFrame Kids Strap wraps a small boot in secure, even support. Together, the setup hands over just enough independence to make the whole first season feel like an accomplishment.
