Our 10 Best Intermediate Snowboards for Women 2023-2024

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #10

Board: GNU Velvet

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain-Freestyle

Smart rating score: 86.1/100

Starting off the list at #10 is GNU's Velvet. 

The Velvet is one of those boards that's nice and easy to ride but has that extra bit of performance when you need it, as you start to progress.  

It's also nice and versatile, which is great for anyone looking for a one-board-quiver or if you're still not sure what style of riding you're going to evolve into yet.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #9

Board: Arbor Mantra Rocker

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Style of Board: Freestyle

Smart rating score: 86.2/100

Next up we have the Mantra Rocker. 

Technically it's a new board for 2024, but in reality it's just a name change from the Poparazzi rocker. 

If you're looking for an easy riding board that's freestyle oriented, but has enough performance that it can take you further into your progression than a pure beginner board, the Mantra Rocker is a really good option.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #8

Board: Lib Tech Glider

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Style of Board: Freestyle

Smart rating score: 87.0/100

In at #8, we have the Lib Tech Glider. 

The Glider is a great board for those who are just past that very beginner stage and looking to progress. 

An even better option for those looking to get into riding freestyle in the future or who are already getting started in that direction. Or simply see themselves as a more casual, playful rider.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #7

Board: Burton Feelgood Flying V

Flex: Medium (5.5/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain

Smart rating score: 87.1/100

Next up at #7 is Burton's Feelgood Flying V. 

If you like the idea of a surfier, freer/looser feeling ride, but still want high quality and the versatility of an all-mountain board, then the Feelgood Flying V might be the right choice for you. 

It's a little stiffer than most on this list, but still nothing too stiff and great if you want something just that little more rigid in terms of flex but still a forgiving easy to turn ride.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #6

Board: YES Women's Basic

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain-Freestyle

Smart rating score: 89.1/100

Next up we have the YES Women's Basic. 

The Women's Basic is one of those boards that anyone from beginner to advanced can ride. For the more advanced rider it takes on more of a freestyle focus. But as a beginner to intermediate rider it's also a great board for progressing your everyday riding on. 

Also a great option for those that see hard/icy conditions often. 

It's the equal lowest priced board on this list, so it's also a good option for those on a lower budget.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #5

Board: Capita Space Metal Fantasy

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Style of Board: Freestyle

Smart rating score: 89.1/100

At #5 is Capita's Space Metal Fantasy.

The Space Metal Fantasy is great for anyone who mostly rides freestyle or is looking for a board to learn freestyle on. Or as a second board for someone who has another board for other things and wants a freestyle deck to progress in the park with.  

Along with #6 above, it's the equal lowest priced board on this list, so will put a bit of a smaller dent in the wallet too.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #4

Board: Rossignol Airis

Flex: Medium (5/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain

Smart rating score: 89.2/100

Coming in at #4, we have the Rossignol Airis. 

Easy to ride, but with a bit of extra performance for when you start to progress - and very versatile. 

Just a regular but well built snowboard, that can do a bit of everything and feels very consistent and predictable.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #3

Board: Never Summer Infinity

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain

Smart rating score: 90.6/100

Next up we have Never Summer's Infinity, which is one of the most versatile on this list. 

If you've already developed an eclectic style of riding that takes you anywhere, doing a variety of things, or if you're still unsure of the type of riding you prefer - or if you simply want a board that will help you to progress your riding - the Infinity fits many scenarios.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #2

Board: Capita Paradise

Flex: Medium (5/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain

Smart rating score: 90.9/100

At #2, we have the Capita Paradise. 

One of the more versatile boards going around and at the same time easy to ride and progress on, but with enough behind it that it can handle a little more speed and has the ability to take you to that next level.

WOMEN'S INTERMEDIATE BOARD #1

Board: YES Hello

Flex: Medium-Soft (4.5/10)

Style of Board: All-Mountain

Smart rating score: 91.8/100

And finally, in the #1 spot, we have the YES Hello. 

The Hello is the baby sister of the Hel Yes. It's a little mellower and easy to ride versus the Hel Yes, but still a high quality deck that's got the performance you need to take you beyond that intermediate level.  

Ideal for those looking for a versatile ride that will be with them for years to come and progress with them. Also great for hard/icy snow conditions.
