The YES. Snowboards Lineup

YES. snowboards has a sprawling lineup. With over 20 snowboards, YES. has one of the biggest lineups among brands. Best known for freestyle, powder and backcountry snowboards, YES. might have something in their lineup for you.

Do you like surfing the powder or stomping out the big jumps? Those are huge factors that Petter Solberg, Romain de Marchi and David Carrier Porcheron took into account when designing YES. snowboards. If you want a lot of boards to choose from, YES. certainly doesn’t fall short.

While YES. even puts out a kids board, you’ll be surprised to learn you won’t find a splitboard in their lineup. We get it, it doesn’t exactly align with their roots of throwing it down on big jumps and all.

All-mountain groomer riders might find that YES. comes up short but just about all other riders should be able to find a board in the lineup. We scored YES.’s selection an 8.3 out of 10.

Are YES Snowboards Good? How’s the Quality…

Yes. Basic Snowboard Women's 2023

Let’s get it out of the way, YES. isn’t trying to make the most high-end snowboards. You have to know what you are getting into. For most people, the quality will be more than good enough. For people who are putting 50+ days on the slopes though, it might not be the quality you want.

Backed by their YES. for life warranty, if you ride hard, you may need it. The most common issues with YES. board’s quality is the top laminates peeling. Other than the occasional defective base, most YES. boards are solid.

The issue comes to when you try to use the warranty. We get it, they can’t replace everything but with a lifetime warranty, you would think most things are covered. They’re not. Make sure you read through all the things not covered by YES. so you aren’t in for surprises.

If your board is damaged in shipping, you are screwed. If your graphics discolor, too bad. As we said, most boards are fine, just don’t think everything is covered if you get a bad board.

YES. snowboards quality scores an 7.6 out of 10.
