About how much does a snowboard cost?

Boots, bindings, and board from Burton would probably run you about $800, for a decent setup. Don't get Burton, their gear is overpriced and you can get more bang for you buck. Try the Capita Saturnia, it's a great board and retails at $339. For bindings get the Union trilogies, they retail at $219, or you can get the milans which are $189. And for boots get a pair of 32 boots, which feel comfortable.
