Do you love snowboarding? Those new to the sport may be wondering what type of bindings to choose.

If your goal is to become a pro rider, it’s probably not worth worrying about the type of binding you have since they all serve the same purpose anyway! But if you are starting out or want something more advanced, there are a ton of different bindings to choose from.

While this may seem like a pretty obvious thing to do, we can’t tell you how many people either don’t bother measuring their boots before buying snowboard bindings or pick out the wrong size altogether. You need to get two measurements to correctly fit your bindings – the sole boot length and the binding width. The sole boot length is basically how long your foot is from toe to heel, measured in millimeters (mm). Meanwhile, the binding width tells you exactly how broad a particular set of bindings are – the smaller this number is, the more narrow your bindings will be.
