Below are the 2017 YES snowboards on offer for the 2016-17 season.
I have listed each board under the category that I think that board best belongs to.
There are 14 different YES boards this season and I hope that this breakdown can make it easier for you to sift through.
If you’re not sure which category best describes your style of riding, try checking out the following article:
>>What Style of Snowboarder are You?
Some boards will be in more than 1 category.
Note that YES only does 2 women’s specific models. Both of those are great boards, in my opinion, and it would be awesome to see some more options in the women’s line in future seasons.

So, there you have the YES line up for the 2016-17 season. Hopefully this has made it easier to look at their boards for this season and be able to categorize them and see what might be most suitable for you.
