If you’re looking for a women’s all mountain freestyle snowboard then the list below is a great place to start.
The boards below are what I consider to be the top 5 women’s all mountain freestyle boards for the 2018-19 season.
How they Were Chosen
As is tradition here at SnowboardingProfiles.com the each board has been given a rating out of 100.
I looked at a number of boards and of those boards are the following stats – just to give you some perspective on the scores in the top 5 below.
Since I don’t currently have a separate women’s aggressive all-mountain-freestyle list, I have included them in this category. One of which made the list (see #4 below).
OK so here’s the top 5!
WOMEN'S ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #5
Board: Salomon Rumble Fish
Price: View More Info and Current prices Here
Flex: Medium (5/10)
Rating: 83.1/100
Starting off our list in #5, is the Salomon Rumble Fish.
The Rumble Fish is a very versatile board that is equally at home on groomers or in the park. So, if you like to ride the whole resort and you have a variety in your style, the Rumble Fish is a great all-rounder that can help you to make the most of everyday in the resort.
It's only real weakness in powder, but it can ride there, of course, just that it would be a lot of effort keeping the nose afloat if you were going into deep powder in the backcountry. So, you could say it's a do-it-all board for within the resort boundaries.

WOMEN'S ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #4
Board: GNU B-Pro C3
Price: View More Info and Current prices Here
Flex: Medium (6/10)
Rating: 83.1/100
- HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION
In at #4 we have the GNU B-Pro.
If I had a separate women's list for aggressive all-mountain freestyle boards, this would be in it. It's the most aggressive on this list in terms of camber profile and is also the stiffest board on this list.
If you like to carve up the mountain and really get those carves deep and low, but also want to find side-hits and do park laps (mostly for the jump line, not really a jibber), then the B-Pro might just be your option.
If all of that sounds like you and you also ride in hard/icy conditions a lot, then this might be your ultimate board.

WOMEN'S ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #3
Board: Roxy Torah Bright C2X
Price: View More Info and Current prices Here
Flex: Medium
Rating: 86.5/100
- HARD/ICY SNOW OPTION
And the #3 spot goes to the Torah Bright (named of course after the Olympic Gold medalist Torah Bright).
Roxy’s Torah Bright is a board that you can chop and change between riding freestyle and laying down some hard carves.
It’s also the perfect board to take into the pipe – which shouldn’t be a surprise given Torah’s strongest discipline in Snowboarding is the half-pipe. If you like to ride the pipe this board should be your number 1 choice on this list. It’s also great in hard/icy snow if those are conditions that you tend to come across often.

This video is getting pretty old now - but the Torah Bright has stayed very similar for years, so the video is still relevant.

WOMEN'S ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #2
Board: Capita Paradise
Price: View More Info and Current Prices Here
Flex: Medium (5/10)
Rating: 87.6/100
The Capita Paradise is about as versatile as they come. It can really do everything – it’s even pretty good in powder compared to most all-mountain-freestyle rides – particularly so if you like to ride switch in powder.
Basically no weaknesses here, if you’re looking for that versatile board that can handle anything and everything well.
Plus, it’s the lowest priced board on this list – so if you’re on a budget but don’t want to sacrifice performance and everything else screams yes about this board, then you’re onto a winner here.

WOMEN'S ALL-MOUNTAIN-FREESTYLE BOARD #1
Board: Never Summer Women’s Proto Type Two
Price: View More Info and Current Prices Here
Flex: Medium (5/10)
Rating: 91.0/100
Finally, at #1, we have the Women’s Proto Type Two by Never Summer.
The Proto Type Two is the only board on this list with an asymmetrical side cut making for a better feel on your heel edge – and making switch riding a joy.
That also helps with it’s carving, which it would already be pretty good at without the asymmetry. You can bomb on this board when you want to and you can slow it down and play around. It’s also a jump machine – with plenty of pop and nice and stable on landings.

Over to You
Thanks for reading and I hope this list has help you to choose the perfect all-mountain freestyle snowboard for you.
As you can see above each board on the list is has different strengths and weaknesses, so hopefully one of them suits your style perfectly. Check out the links under each board for more info and for their current price.
I’m looking to get the proto type two and was wondering what bindings would you recommend? I’m looking to progress from a beginner rider to an intermediate rider and I’m looking forward to try out some basic freestyle tricks this year, miserably failed to do so for the past 5 years. I was wondering if a stiffer or softer binding would help with the progression.
Hi Sam
For the Proto Type Two, something with around a 5/10 or 6/10 flex is a good way to go, IMO, but you could get away with 4/10. For starting out with freestyle tricks softer is generally easier, so probably looking at 4/10 or 5/10 is a good way to go, IMO.
Check out the following for some good options in that flex range.

Hope this helps
Hi Nate,
Looking to get the Proto, but I’m not sure which size to get. I’m 158cm, 65kg with booth size 6.5-7. I like to ride around the mountain but also getting into park. I’m thinking either the 142 or 145, thoughts/recommendations?
Thanks!
Hi Amy
Thanks for your message.
Yeah I would agree that it’s between the 142 and the 145. I would say something around 145 for a lot of boards, but this is one of those boards that you can ride a little shorter, due to a good amount of effective edge compared to overall length.
I think the 142 would be a slightly better width for your boots, especially if you got into 6.5s and assuming you ride this board with +15/-15 binding angles (which is recommended for this board, being an asymmetrical twin). The 142 would be more maneuverable at slower speeds, better in the trees, more playful and better in the park.
The 145 would be more stable at higher speeds, float a little better in powder and be better for long, wide carves, IMO.
So, depending on what you value more from those things. Both sizes would certainly work for you, but hopefully this gives you more to go off for your decision.
Thanks heaps for your advice Nate! Think I’ll go with the 142cm.
You’re very welcome Amy. If you think of it at the time, let me know how you get on, once you’ve had a chance to get it on snow. Hope you have an awesome season!
