This is not the best to have a snowboard strapped to, it is do able, but it is a wider pack so it takes the weight of the board is not centered close to your body. It is very roomy and holds EVERYTHING you could need and then some. Got the goggle pouch and helmet stash. Side zips to get to your dry stuff easy. The hip pads are really comfortable and it has great support. I have used it for very long day hikes where i am bringing lots of gear. So not just for winter!
