Man, it will be hard finding new boards for $250, maybe if u keep ur eye out at ur local shops, u can catch a good sale. Also if u ask, a lot of store will give u 10% off something u want to purchase. But l think ur best bet would be to check out the stores around u & look at their gear from last year. l do not know about the stores around where u are, but where l live, when u go to actual ''ski n board'' shops, they will have their junk all half off, sometimes more, sometimes less. That includes the coats, boards, hats, everything last year. Even if they don't, go to the stores, do some research to see if some of those boards u like there r from last year & go in again & try & bargain with them, bringing up the fact that they r last years stuff, so why should u pay full price for them. You'd be surprised at how much u can save man. Good luck bro.
