Kriteria for snowboard

Hi,

I’d like to buy good snowboard for myself.
Please advice me what criteria is the most important when choosing one (please make a hierarchy):
- graphics
- maker
- profile
- materials (carbon, honeycomb, Kevlar, wood etc)
- base (with graphics or not)

Any other things that I (beginner) do not know.


Thanks

in order:
- profile
- maker
- material
- base
- graphic*

graphic with an asterisk because most boards have decent graphics. However if the graphic is really horrid no matter how good the board is I would not buy it. An extreme and unlike scenario is the board might have the perfect profile, material, specs, etc. but if the graphic is a penis, I would never buy it.

Or if 2 or more boards share relatively the same spec, I will buy the graphic I like the most.
