Snowboard Boots

Our selection of snowboard boots provides you with a host of opportunities to design the perfect snowboard package. Tell us how you ride (freestyle, free-ride, all-mountain) and we’ll help you determine how much flexibility and stiffness you need. Because we offer boots from the best designers in the industry, you can be assured that with the right fit you’ll be warm and comfortable. And even though modern snowboard boots are well made and stylish, fit is the most critical element you should consider. If needed, Shepherd and Schaller can provide custom footbeds to guarantee stability and comfort.

Snowboard Bindings

Selecting bindings is just as important as fitting boots and sizing snowboards properly. We offer bindings suited to different levels of performance, from beginner to expert, to fit your particular tastes and needs. A properly fitted binding ensures that boot and binding operate efficiently with your snowboard. Tell us your stance width, angle and center and we’ll mount them to your specifications. Don’t know these details? We’ll help you out.

Snowboards

What kind of rider are you? Do you enjoy cruising the entire mountain, have a need for speed, or prefer to play in the park or pipe? Shepherd & Schaller stocks a vast selection of All-Mountain boards, as well as great choices for Freeriders and Freestylers from K2, 5150, Lamar, Morrow, Rossignol, Atomic and Limited. Tell us your goals and we'll help you reach them with a snowboard designed for the kind of riding you enjoy and aspire to, whether you're a recreational rider who wants a soft-flexing affordable board you'll be able to grow out of, an experienced rider who craves versatile high performance gear, or an expert who needs an extra-stiff board with lots of pop for high-speed stability.

We'll factor in your obvious characteristics like gender and experience, then fine tune your fit based on a number of features like length, width, flex, sidecut, effective edge, and board materials. Don't worry if you don't know how these features will affect your snowboarding experience. We do, and we'll teach you.
