Is it better to buy a slightly bigger snowboard?


Especially if you know you are only going to get better and don't want to outgrow a smaller board?

The size of the board will determine how much control you have over your board. If you want to ride in the terrain park and you want to go in the half pipe etc, then you would want a shorter board. You'll have more control over it. However, if you prefer to ride in the backcountry or just do freeriding then you'll want a longer board.
If your still growing then personaly I wouldnt get a board until you stop unless you snowboard on a regular basis. It really depends on how much you will use the board. You have to ask youself, " will I get a lot out of this board". Because I'm telling you right now, they are NOT cheap and if you spend several hundred on everything and only use it for one year, then you spending a lot of money. Now if you have that kind of money then fine,but I would sugest you either get something used or just rent until you are pretty much done growing. Once you slow down with your growth then a few inches shouldnt make much difference.
Good luck and have fun!

What do i do during winter break and play beacause im bored?

It depends on where you are snowboarding, and what style you like.

If you want to be able to do tricks and stuff, stick with the smaller board - for a lot of downhill, get the bigger one.

A lot of it is personal preference.

I would highly reccomend buying a bigger snowboard. I bought my board a little big last year, and it turned out to be a great decision, because A) not only was i able to grow into it, and it was still managable being big, but B) you are able to go faster. For the terrain park i would reccomend a smaller board for more technical tricks, but for speed, a longer board is definitly better

a smaller board is always easier to control than a larger board. youve got a good idea of getting a bigger board because youre only going to grow, but also how much are you really going to grow? it would be better to buy a board that you know isnt too small for you now, but aalso wont be too big for you even when you stop growing.
