The Best Women’s Freestyle Snowboards for 2022-2023

Last Updated: October 31, 2022 by Nate 47 Comments

best womens freestyle snowboards

Below you will find Snowboarding Profiles' Top 5 Women's Freestyle Snowboards. 

This list has been updated for the 2022-23 season. 

Ratings

Each board is rated out of 100. Whilst this isn’t an exact science it should give you a fairly accurate reading on how good these boards will be as freestyle weapons.

Out of 17 women’s freestyle boards that I looked at:

  • The average score was 82.1/100
  • The highest score was 91.3/100 (see below)
  • The lowest score was 72.8/100
  • The average price was $466

O.k. here’s the top 5!


FREESTYLE BOARD #5

Rome Heist Review

Board: Rome Heist

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Rating: 86.4/100

Starting off this year's list at #5 is the Rome Heist. 

The Heist is a great all-round freestyle board that you can confidently take down both the jump line and jib line. And when you're on the groomers is great for buttering around and seeking out side hits.

GNU Pro Chocice Review

The Pro Choice, our #4 selection, is Jamie Anderson's competition board of choice. 

Jamie Anderson's other board is the Ladies Choice (and she also has a pow board) - so what's different between the Pro Choice vs the Ladies Choice - the camber profile. The Pro Choice has GNUs C3 camber - which is pretty close to full camber. So it's a more aggressive, poppier kind of ride.

Not for the beginner and even low intermediate park rider's might have a little trouble with it - but for those high intermediate to advanced/expert park riders, this board will give back whatever you can throw at it. 

It's also great for carving up the groomers, when you just feel like laying it on an edge and leaving behind those thin lines.

FREESTYLE BOARD #3

Niche Minx Review

Board: Niche Minx

Price: View More Info and Current Prices Here

Flex: Medium-Soft (4/10)

Rating: 87.0/100

In at #3 we have the Niche Minx. 

Equally as good for hitting the jump line and the jib line, the Minx is an awesome tool if you're looking to mix it up in the park and on natural features on the mountain. 

It's a great mix of buttery, snappy and playful.

FREESTYLE BOARD #2

YES Rival Review

Board: YES Rival

  • US
  • CA

Price: View More Info and Current Prices Here

Flex: Medium (4.5/10)

Rating: 89.7/100

>>See Full Review

The YES Rival is a jump machine and will have you boosting off everything in sight - and when you want to get buttery or take a lap down the jib line, it holds its own there too. 

Even when you just want to cruise the groomers or lay down a carve, the Rival's got your back. It's too good as a park board to leave out of this category, but would be just as suited to the all-mountain freestyle category.

FREESTYLE BOARD #1

Never Summer Women's Proto Slinger Review

Board: Never Summer Women's Proto Slinger

  • US
  • CA

Price: View More Info and Current Prices Here

Flex: Medium Soft (3.5/10)

Rating: 91.3/100

Finally, in at #1, we have the women's Proto Slinger. 

The men's version of the Proto Slinger has been around a few seasons now (and prior to that was the Funslinger, which was a slightly different board, but similar), so it's awesome to see a women's specific model now. 

This board is made to dominate the park down both jump and jib lines - and is super buttery and playful. Equally good for seeking out sidehits as it is in the park, this board can also lay down a decent carve for how soft flexing it is.

The Proto Slinger is like the perfect combination of performance and playfulness. 

Check out More on the Women's Proto Slinger in the Video 

This video is for the men's version but both boards are very similar.

Over to You

Even though this list is in order from 1-5, you should try to pick the board that is most suited to you. Anything on this list would be a great choice for riding freestyle but you might lean more to jibs, more to jumps or prefer a stable feel or a loose feel or prefer something more aggressive or more playful. 

Make sure to pay attention to the score breakdown's to see which might suit you best. I hope this has helped to narrow down your options!

Check out the links under each board for more info and prices.
