Snowboarding gifts for large budgets
#1 Metal wall art
This beautiful metal wall art is one of the best snowboarding gifts for a housewarming. It gives the recipient the opportunity to decorate their new home with their favorite hobby.
#2 Wireless helmet headphones
What’s better than racing down a slope with your favorite music in the background?
Nothing!
And that’s what makes these wireless headphones one of the best gifts for snowboarders.
They fit in most helmets and they can last for 10 hours in below-zero temperatures, which makes them perfect for skiers and snowboarders.
#3 Shoe dryers
There is nothing worse than starting a day in the snow with wet shoes. So to prevent this from happening, these boot dryers are awesome snowboarding gifts.
And the best part is that receivers can also use it during other seasons, for example, to dry their hiking boots during spring.
#4 Ski lift candle
A smell can truly transport people to a new place. So if you’re looking for a gift for a snowboarder who misses the slopes, then this ski lift candle is perfect. Not only does it come with a cute ski lift, but it also has a typical winter smell to bring them back to the snow.
#5 Snow goggles picture frame
This is another awesome gift for a snowboarder who just moved to a new home, a picture frame that’s shaped like snow goggles!
#6 Jacket
Even though I’m a skier myself (check out the ski gift guide if you also need gifts for a skier), I usually prefer snowboard clothing because they’re wider, more colorful, and generally have more swag.
So if you’re looking for practical and cool gifts for snowboarders, a jacket is always a good idea. Burton is one of the best and coolest brands for snowboarders. You can buy them from Amazon or the Burton website.
#7 Padded protective shorts
Snowboarders, no matter how skilled, will spend quite some time on their butts. So to protect their precious asses, these padded shorts are perfect. They break snowboarders’ falls, and they serve as a cushion when snowboarders want to sit down for a short break. So if you are looking for practical gifts for snowboarders, these shorts are exactly what you need.
#8 Personalized family print
Do you need snowboarding gifts for a family who loves to go on winter trips?
Whether they’re snowboarders, skiers, or both, this personalized family print is an awesome gift either way.
You can add as many family members to the ski lift as you want, and you can turn them into skiers or snowboarders accordingly!

#9 Snowboarding pants
Snowboarders can never have too many pants, so if you’re looking for practical gifts for snowboarders, head over to Burton (one of the best snowboarding brands) and check out all their pants. They also sell on Amazon if that’s your preferred store.
#10 Family mugs
These mugs are another example of cute snowboarding gifts for families.
You can buy as many mugs as you want, and customize the name, outfit, skin color, and whether they’re wearing skis or snowboards.
#11 Baselayers
Are you looking for practical gifts for snowboarders?
Then baselayers are perfect. As a snowboarder, you can never have too many layers, it’s the key to staying warm and enjoying a full day in the snow.
Arc’teryx is one of the best outdoor brands, so their baselayers are beyond excellent. However, if you’re looking for cheaper alternatives, you can always check out Amazon.
#12 Thermal phone pouch
Protecting themselves from the cold always comes first but let’s not forget about their phones. Without it, how can they possibly catch every epic moment of their ride?
Almost every smartphone uses lithium-ion batteries and what happens to those when they’re exposed to cold temperatures?
You guessed it! They greatly reduce the phone’s battery performance (I’m no expert but from what I know, they somehow stop discharging electricity) so it’s only common sense to protect their phones as well.
This thermal phone pouch may seem like a measly gift but it’s extremely important and is something that snowboarders would definitely appreciate!
#13 Waterproof power bank
This power bank is the perfect gift for outdoor lovers (including snowboarders) to keep their phones charged throughout the day! It’s waterproof so no need to worry about the risk of breaking it in the snow.
It has built-in charging cables and in/out ports. Oh, and did I mention it has a wireless charger too? It’s like an all-rounder!
#14 Unlimited ski resort access pass
The Epic Pass is actually one of the most epic gifts for snowboarders.
It gives them unlimited access for a year to over 40 ski resorts in the US and limited access to more of their partner resorts across the globe.
#15 Snowboard-themed sweater
You can find many cool snowboard-themed sweaters on Etsy, such as this one with “Ride”.
Snowboarding gifts for mid-budget
#16 Pocket adjustment tool
This pocket tool is one of the essential items (apart from snowboards, boots, and clothing, obviously) that every snowboarder should have.
It fits in any pocket, so they can easily take it and adjust their binding while they’re on the mountain.
#17 Slopes of a Lifetime Guidebook
This is one of the best gifts for snowboarders who love to travel around the world to find the best slopes. National Geographic has collected the 100 best slopes that every snowboard (and ski) lover should try at least once in their lives!
#18 Ski resort map glasses
These pint glasses are great gifts for snowboarders of various kinds.
They’re perfect for snowboarders who love the apres-ski as much as they love snowboarding. They’re also great for snowboarders who love US ski resorts or for first-time snowboarders who love a little souvenir from their first destination.
#19 Snowboard beer binder
Looking for a gag gift to give snowboarders?
Then this snowboard binder beer holder is perfect!
With this, they’ll get to crack open a beer wherever they are and enjoy the view with a cold one. Plus, it gives them the perfect opportunity to turn their slope adventures into a chill party!
#20 Wall mount
Snowboards always take up a lot of space. Your fellow snowboarders are probably scratching their heads, not knowing where to store theirs.
So, gift them these beautiful wall mounts! With it, they can proudly display their hobby.
It’ll keep their snowboard organized and easily accessible, plus, it’ll add a unique decor to their homes, making it a win-win for both style and functionality!
#21 USA ski resorts scratch map
I love scratch maps, and I am pretty sure I am not the only one.
So if you’re looking for gifts for snowboarders who love scratching off destinations too, then this map with all the major ski resorts in the US is perfect!
#22 Necklace
Are you looking for cute snowboarding accessories gifts?
Then this necklace with their initials and a snowboard is perfect!
#23 Wrist protection
Do you care a lot about the recipient and do you want to keep them safe on their next snowboarding trip?
Then these wrist guards from Burton are awesome snowboard gifts to buy this year.
#24 Cookbook
I absolutely love ski house meals; they’re warm, filling, and exactly what you want after a long day in the snow.
And you know what?
Even if you’ve not been out in the snow, a comfy ski house meal is exactly what snow and snowboarders lovers want. So if you’re looking for gifts for a snowboarder stuck at home, this cookbook is a great comforting gift.
#25 GoPro accessories
If the recipient owns a GoPro, these are the two best snowboarding accessories gifts to make amazing action shots; a pole holder and the chest mount (the sports duo contains these two). So check out GoPro to see which one is best for the recipient
#26 Journal
This personalized ski pass journal is a great gift for a snowboarder who loves to write about his or her experiences. You can even add the destination and trip dates, so the receiver can use it as a customized trip memoir.
#27 Balaclava
Snowboarding is no fun if you’re cold all the time, so to make sure the recipient is having a great time and stays warm, a balaclava that covers their entire face is a perfect gift idea. It fits under a helmet too, so they can stay safe and warm.
Snowboarding gifts for small budgets
#28 Snowboard carrier
With this shoulder strap, snowboarders can easily carry their boards anywhere. It’s a great small and practical gift for a snowboarder.
#29 Smartphone harness
If you are looking for snowboarder gifts for someone who loves to take photos of everything, this harness is perfect!
They can take out their phones wherever they want and not worry about accidentally dropping them because the harness is attached to a neckstrap.
#30 Snowboard-themed socks
What’s not to like about socks with a colorful snowboard theme?
They’re great snowboard gifts for every type of snowboarder. Though keep in mind these are not actual winter socks, so they can’t use them on slopes.
#31 Book about Shaun White
Shaun White is a two-time Olympic snowboarding champion and a legend among snowboarders. So if you’re looking for cool gifts for snowboarders who love to read, this is an awesome book about his life.
#32 Base layer gloves
These liner gloves are great gift ideas for snowboarders for two reasons.
First, an extra layer of anything is the best way to stay warm. So these gloves will help to keep their hands warm. But second, they are touchscreen-compatible. And in an age where not being able to use your phone is unthinkable, that’s an essential quality.
Besides being useful for snowboarders, they’re actually also practical for anyone who loves outdoor sports, such as ice skaters, hikers, skiers, and runners!
#33 Hand warmers
For more snowboarder gifts that will keep them warm, check out these pocket hand warmers. They are activated by shaking and they stay warm for about 10 hours, so they’re perfect to keep snowboarders warm throughout the day.
#34 Luggage tags
Are you looking for snowboard gifts for people who travel a lot?
Then check out the 400+ snowboard-themed luggage tags on Zazzle.
#35 Fanny pack
A backpack is not the most practical bag for a snowboarder, they’re big and can really hurt during a fall. And that’s why fanny packs are so popular among snowboarders. They’re small, yet they allow snowboarders to bring their essentials (phones, keys, and money) without being in the way.
#36 Stud stomp pads
Snowboarders use stump pads like these ones for two reasons. First, to protect their boards against slams and more. But more importantly, they give the boarder some grip when they’ve untied one foot.
#37 Snow goggle case
This case for snow goggles may not be the most exciting snowboarding accessories gift, but it’s one of the most practical. Especially for clumsy people who often break or lose their stuff.
#38 Sore muscle bath bomb
Treat your favorite snowboarder with a well-deserved relaxation bath bomb after a full day of riding (or falling).
It’s made from tea trees and eucalyptus, which is well known to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and many more (source).
Slipping into a warm bath with these to relax and soothe their aching muscles is something your snowboarder friends are in dire need of.
This is a gem they’ll definitely appreciate!
#39 Flasks
Snowboarders may not be into skiing, but I’m pretty sure they are into apres-skiing!
And a personalized flask is a great way to start the apres-ski (or to stay warm during the day).
I quite liked the funny text on the first flask, but you can also find plenty of snowboard-themed flasks on Zazzle.
#40 Wax
Alright, so you’ll never win the price of the most unique gift for a snowboarder with wax. But gifting is not about you, it’s about the receiver. And a snowboarder will always need wax (if they care about sliding fast).
So if you don’t care about originality, and you do care about practicality, head over to Amazon for a ZUMWax rub-on, or to Burton for a slightly more expensive rub-on wax.
