Snowboarding help… What do I do?
Ok, I snowboard and have been for a while and I am pretty good. I go fast, shred, go off jumps, rails, everything. My only problem is that I don’t have any gear and I still rent boards every time I go to the mountain. I see the sweet looking guys there with goggles, coats and snow pants that match their board, all that stuff, and I am there with gay black snow pants, a north face fleece jacket, sledding gloves, no goggles and a golf Titleist hat, and I am jealous. Basically, I just want to be informed on all of the styles of snowboarding for when I go shopping. What kind of design do I look for on my board? How do I know if my pants and jacket match my board? What goggles do I get? What do I wear underneath all this equipment? All help is greatly appreciated. Thank you all.
ok, so here are some big brands with huge reps behind them:

i have north fce black snow pants and everyone appreciates them, and they’re about 150 bucks, so pretty cheap.
next, you want a different color jacket then your pants.
i have black pants and a blue jacket.
you can also go with a green jacket if you have black pants.
also, you can get a multi colored jacket, it doesn’t have to be solid. i recommend you get solid pants though, not many people wear that stuff.
next, for a beanie, the two beanies that are “in style” are tall beanies which stand up on top of your head a little bit, and it bunches down in the back. the other type is beanies with the long things hanging down.
for goggles, the ones in style are anons and oakleys. a lot of people wear the tinted lenses, that basically reflect yourself when you look into them from the outside.
