  • Answer:

    you'll be totally fine! my first snowboard, oh my a long time ago it seems, was a freestyle board. didn't hinder me at all and i loved it. as a beginner the difference in types of boards doesn't really matter to you at all. unless you plan on becoming more than a rec. boarder pay no attention to it. the difference in styles and the different widths are for the boarders who have the money to buy different boards per different terrain. i had my first board for the first 2 years and now that i've been boarding for over 7 [starting at age 11] i've had different boards for different terrains [ie park/pipe, powder, snowcross, etc] happy shredding! hollyy

I seriously wished i had learned on a freestyle board, more flexible, more fun and easier to learn on. You will find that board great to learn on.

You should be okay with what you have. Because your only going to do the groomed slopes, you won't be needing a park board. The difference between your board and a park board is that Park boards have different types of uhhh bottoms. (don't know the name). There are things like V-Rocker and S-Rockers. But you won't need to know that stuff unless you want to go into park. But for what your going to do, an all mountain free-style board should do it.
