I haven't been snowboarding that long, but just to look at boards from the early nineties (eighties!), it's obvious that the designs and structure of the things have improved over the years. How do you think boards of ten or even twenty years ago compare to the boards of today? Do you think that even a lower-end board of today would be of a better quality (i.e., give a better ride) than what was considered top-of-the-line fifteen years ago?

undoubtedly yes! the workmanship on some boards nowadays can be shoddy, but in terms of innovation in design, technology and materials, i'd definitely say that a top quality board made 15 years ago would be far inferior to almost any (reputable) 2006 model snowboard. But like anything, there are probably exceptions...
