I want to take my kids to maybe boine ( spelling ) mountain . Try to get them into boarding

I think private lessons where I worked was like $60 an hour

what would you people recommend for a starting board for some one 6'4. also boots (size 12) and bindings.

one of my buddies spent about hour n half just showing me how to leaf down the bunny slopes, then we went up the mountain and I ended up coming down a blue...it was awesome. (1st time boarding)

fucked up my knee real good though.

It all depends on what you want to do. I'm 6'4" 190 lbs and ride a 153 right now, which most people would consider very short but after riding both extensively I much prefer the short board so I would recommend that.

As far as boards, try and grab a last years (for pricing) lib tech skate banana with basically any kind of decent quality boots/bindings you find you like. Just avoid Flow bindings or anything that you step into like that, the concept doesn't pan out.

short boards are usually more for park people, and longer are for mountain slush right? Im 6'1 and 180, and i was wondering what size board i should get.

Not really. A short board is definitely better for park, but even if I was riding nothing but powder I'd probably still want a short board. Its a lot easier to throw around and you feel like your in control more. I went from riding a 158 to the 153 and the difference was huge. If you can find a demo day at your local hill take advantage of it to see what you like best yourself.

I need to find me a board too. I went last weekend and rented one for two days and ended up getting rained out the second day. Bye bye $40...
