Abstract: A snowboard includes a snowboard main body and two shock resistant protecting plates attached to front and rear ends of the main body. The protecting plates are made of material having high structure strength and high hardness. The snowboard main body forms a front mounting slot and a rear mounting slot. One protecting plate is mounted in the front mounting slot with an outer portion thereof extending out of the front mounting slot, and the other protecting plate is mounted in the rear mounting slot with an outer portion thereof extending out of the rear mounting slot. The provision of the protecting plates improves shock resistance of the snowboard. The protecting plates are assembled to the snowboard main body using special method to form a united member, thus providing the snowboard with both good appearance and high shock resistant, and can be employed in snowboards of any kind and specification.
