What Are Great Beginner Snowboards?

I'm a first time snowboarder. Well, I want to be. Any good brands to choose from ? ...For a beginner?What Are Great Beginner Snowboards?
I would suggest a freeride board with some setback and a directional shape - it will make it a lot easier to learn. Use a snowboard size calculator to determine the size you need:

I like Ride and K2 the best - For women I would suggest a K2 Skyla or Luna and for Men a Ride Control or a Ride Fleetwood (if you need a wide board):

Seriously, buy used. If you must spend you cash on something, go buy the most comfortable boots you can get a good price on, and get a used board and bindings. ebay or craigslist will serve you well, as at your level, the finer details of this brand to that brand, this model to that model will not matter much. Just get for your weight a slightly shorter board with a good amount of flex. after you have put a few snow days on your used gear, think about what you like and don't like about it and go get yourself a decent intermediate setup that you will grow with.
it all depends on your level of snowboarding, where you plan to snowboard at, size weight, foot size, and style of riding. there is no better beginner boards, but there are better boards for different people. your best bet though is not to crank out too much money on your first board, put money into something more important, like your boots
Go to your local ski or board shop and see if they have programs where you can rent a board for the year! This is the best way to go for beggingers. They will help you out with everything.
I suggest the Burton Clash. It's perfect. Read the reviews on it, and you'll see it's great for beginners.
i got the burton feather as my first board and its amazing even after i got good i still use it
