1. Socks To Keep Their Feet Warm And Comfortable

The last thing you want when snowboarding is to have your feet go cold and numb, as this can quickly ruin the whole experience.

So our first gift idea for snowboarders is to get them a pair of sturdy and warm merino wool socks to wear on the slopes.

And a pair that gets rave reviews from skiers and snowboarders alike are the Smartwool PhD snowboarding socks.

As these are comfortable and light to wear, but keep their feet extremely warm too, while also wicking away any moisture from their feet.

2. Merino Wool Base Layers To Keep Them Snug

Getting their base layers right is also important for keeping a snowboarder warm and comfortable when outside in the cold.

And once more, merino wool is their friend here.

So gifting them an all in one base layer, such as the Airblaster ninja suit base layer, is a great way of ensuring they stay snug on the slopes.

As this doesn't give the cold any chance to get in, and even includes a hood to keep their head and neck warm too.

3. Snowboarding Gloves For Toasty Hands

The final important piece of clothing to keep a snowboarder warm when out on the snow is a pair of snow gloves.

Now you have a choice here between mittens, which keep their hands warmer, or fingered gloves, depending on which they'd prefer.

But a decent pair of either that are built for skiers and snowboarders would make for a welcome gift.

And an example of one such pair are the Hestra leather fall line snow gloves above.

4. Snowboarding Boots That Fit Their Style

A snowboarders boots are a vital piece of their kit, as they need these to attach to their snowboard and keep them balanced, warm, supported, and secure.

So they are the ideal special gift for a snowboarder, although they can be a minefield to buy for someone.

As there are different levels of flex available in the boots depending on their snowboarding style, as well as different lacing systems, liners, and fits.

So this is a gift where you will be better off asking them to come with you to choose the best option for them.

But if you do want to take a chance and surprise them, the Thirtytwo lashed double BOA snowboard boots are a fantastic choice.

5. Fog Resistant Goggles To Protect Their Eyes

Being able to see where you're going and what obstacles are in front of you is pretty damn important when you're hurtling down a snowy mountain at top speed.

However, the glare from the sun and the snow, as well as the cold wind blowing in your eyes, can make this difficult to do unless you wear a pair of snow goggles.

As these goggles are designed to protect and seal your eyes from the elements, and give you clear vision without fogging up.

So as a snowboarding gift they are a brilliant idea, with the Oakley Flight Deck XM snow goggles being my top choice.

6. A Snowboarding Helmet To Keep Them Safe

While snowboarding is a super fun and thrilling activity, it's also a high speed and high intensity sport, and accidents do happen.

So a gift idea that can help your favourite snowboarder to stay safe and better protected in the event of an accident is to get them a snowboarding helmet.

And one that does the job so well that it is used by the United States ski team is the Wildhorn Drift snow helmet.

Which is light, breathable, and comfortable to wear, but retains all the support and protection they need for such an important area.

7. A Warming And Cool Looking Beanie Hat

For more recreational snowboarders that don't go as fast or as crazy as the experts, a helmet may not always be necessary.

However, they will still need to keep their head warm and one way to do this is to wear a beanie hat.

So getting them a stylish beanie, such as the Neff slouch beanie above, is a great gift idea that can keep them warm but also looking cool on the slopes.

8. A Snowboard Tuning Kit

Snowboarders will need to wax, tune, repair and maintain their snowboard regularly to ensure they get the best out of it on the slopes.

As this will ensure it performs as good as possible, gliding smoothly across the snow at all times, and lasts them for a longer time.

However, relying on a snowboard shop to do this for them can be costly and frustrating, as they may have to wait a few days if there is a backlog of snowboards to be worked on.

So a gift that can save them time and money is a snowboard tuning kit, as these contain everything they need to be able to maintain and care for their snowboard themselves.

And one that comes highly regarded in the snowboarding world is the Demon Hyper Speed snowboard tuning kit.

9. A Multi-Tool For Snowboarders

Another useful gift idea for a snowboarder is to get them a multi-tool that allows them to make running repairs while they are out on the snow.

As they'll always be things that need tightening, adjusting or repairing, and usually at the most inconvenient of times.

So having something like the Leatherman Hail and Style multi-tool in their pocket is ideal.

As this is made especially for snowboarders, coming with a variety of necessary tools such as screwdrivers, pliers, cutters, and even a bottle opener for a well deserved post snowboarding beer.

10. A Belt With Handy Tools Built In To The Buckle

If you don't fancy the multi-tool gift idea, another option would be to get them the 686 leather tool belt to wear instead.

As this serves it's primary function as a good looking belt to hold their trousers up, but also has two screwdrivers, three wrenches, and a bottle opener built into it too.

So they can still tune or fix a few things on their board when out snowboarding if they need to.

11. A Lock To Keep Their Snowboard Out Of The Hands Of Thieves

While the vast majority of people in the snowboarding community are decent people, there will always be a few bad eggs everywhere.

And the last thing you want is for your beloved snowboard to go for a walk while you are relaxing with an apres-ski beer with friends.

So getting a snowboarder the Ski Key snowboard lock to take with them on their next snowboarding trip is a top gift idea.

As this will allow them to lock their board up and have the peace of mind that it will be safe and secure until they return for it again.

12. A Snowboard Bag To Keep Their Gear Safe

While we're on the subject of keeping their precious snowboard safe and secure, this also goes for when they are travelling too.

As they can be prone to bumps, knocks, and damage enroute to the slopes, especially on things like planes and trains.

Which makes a padded and protective snowboard bag such a good gift idea for them.

As something such as the Burton wheelie gig snowboard bag has padded compartments to keep their boards boots, and clothing safe, as well as wheels to make it easier to transport.

13. Bluetooth Speakers For Their Helmet

While snowboarding is a great social activity, it can also be a solitary one too, as you are alone with yourself and your thoughts are you slalom down the slopes enjoying the scenery.

And while the peace and quiet is great, some snowboarders prefer to have their music playing to provide a soundtrack for them.

So if your loved one identifies with the latter, getting them some helmet speakers would be the ideal gift for them.

As these fit inside their snowboard helmet, playing their music to them via Bluetooth as they go.

And a top set to go for are the ODT Chips wireless helmet speakers, which deliver great sound quality and clarity.

14. A GoPro Action Camera For Reliving Memories

They say the best camera you'll ever have is the one in your head.

However, many snowboarders with GoPros would disagree, as nowadays you can capture great action shots of your snowboarding adventures to enjoy and share with the world afterwards.

As by strapping their camera to a mount on their helmet or chest they can capture all the thrills and spills of the action. 

So gifting a loved one a GoPro Hero 8 action camera can give them the chance to show off all their latest tricks and stunts with their friends, as well making epic YouTube and Instagram videos.

15. A Thermal Flask For Hot Drinks

While wrapping up warm with the right base layers, socks, and gloves will keep a snowboarder warm on the slopes, there's nothing like warming up from the inside too.

And a gift that can help them to do this is by getting them a YETI Rambler tumbler.

As they can fill this with tea or coffee and take it with them in the bag, and it'll stay hot for their whole snowboarding session.

Meaning they can stop for a satisfying hot drink to refuel whenever they need to.

16. Energy Bars To Keep Them Going

Snowboarding is an energy intensive and tiring sport, which can leave you flagging on the snow if you don't refuel yourself correctly.

So a really nice little gift to get for a snowboarder is a box of Clif energy bars.

As packing a few of these to take with them will give them a delicious, nutritious and sustainable boost of energy to keep them going if they start to flag.

17. A Snowboard Display Rack For Their Home

After the snowboard season has finished comes the long wait until a snowboarder can get back out on the snow again.

But rather than putting their snowboard away in a cupboard until that time comes, how about getting them a display rack for it instead.

As this way they can hang their snowboard on the wall to show off to their friends when they come over, and also to inspire them every time they walk past it.

So if this sounds like a good gift idea, check out the StoreYourBoard display wall rack above.

18. A Lift Pass Gift Card To Give Them More Time On The Slopes

One of the downsides of snowboarding is that the lift passes to get on the slopes can be quite high in certain snowboarding hot spots.

And this means that a younger snowboarder, or one with less finances, may have to limit the time they spend out on the snow.

So they'll definitely appreciate receiving a Liftopia gift card from you if that is the case, as this will give them some extra money to spend on the slopes.

Giving them more days out doing the thing they love most, and you can't beat that for a gift really.
