Not sure if this has been raised before but was thinking about this recently….....
Have been riding since 1995 and would have clocked up around 400 days so I am guessing that is alot of $$ just on lift tickets alone (thank god for season passes!).......Besides lift tix, including airfares, gear, accomodation, petrol, food on hols, travel insurance, etc, I am guessing my running total would be in the realm of $150k?
Might sound like alot but I wouldn’t change a dollar of it
I would say close to 100K, not including this website. I wouldn’t change a dollar of it either.
My mind hurts just beginning to think about it.
Lot & lots, all worth spending !!!!!
yer mine nowhere near the amount of you guys up there but have only been doing it for around 4 yrs and i would say around $25 - $30k
Here’s another question if you dare…
How much do you think you will spend on snowboarding in your lifetime?

ohhh I would say $500k is a possibility!!
Depends on how long I live….....................
Assume you live to the average age of an Australian which is 79….
I reckon 15k in the past 4-5 years
As long as every dollar spent was worth it, that is all that matters!
Enjoy the life you live
i’ve been doing it only for 4 years so haven’t really spent much, specially due to uni.. but only a year and half to go till i graduate
from a look at what you guys spend, i’d say alot of money gonna be coming out of my pocket.. but it doesn’t worry me a bit.. i love every single second of it
I’ve owned my own gear for 2 seasons now, first one I split with my bro, cheap ass package $500, Last year I spent more in the 2k mark and this year I am up to about $900 ish.
So I’d say about 3.4k on gear alone. 1k on last years Perisher pass and about 2k this year on trips alone and $800 for the 2 years I went, totals about 7.2k total over 3 years…
DAMN I SPENT A LOT! lol.

Wait until you start earning more money….....$7.2k wil be a drop in the ocean
Well two years ago I spent $2500 on gear for me and my chick, went up maybe 6 times that year, one weekend cost us $700 for accom alone, plus $400 in lift tickets. Couple of other weekends around $700 inclusive. Last year went about 20 days so around $4000 all inclusive, another board and bindings $800, this year about $700 so far plus another $1200 for my NBZ trip in Sept thats all paid for. $7000 in 2.5 years isnt bad going…..............................
I have been kinda lucky I have only ever bought 1 season pass in the 4 yrs I have been boarding!
Mainly because I have worked for the mountain or gotten a free one for some reason
