I'm not sure that's a question that can be properly answered, because it would suggest that this particular snowboard would be the best for everybody. Each person will have their absolute favourite, and subsequently that would be the best snowboard in the world for them, the best that money can buy.
So, I think you need to expand the question a bit. Do you mean technologically? As in what snowboard uses the most revolutionary technology and materials, and therefore costs the most? Or do you mean what's the most popular snowboard in the world?
Can mean so many things, and like I say, I'm not sure it's answerable. |

yup impossible to answer, its all a matter of personal preference. Its like asking what's the best car, how do you judge what's better out of a 4x4 and a super mini? |

Ok just to clarify more.
Given any amount of money, which brand would you buy? |

It would probably be easier to answer what brand you wouldn't buy. |

Choosing a board isnt about the money, most boards are in a very small range of prices and dont vary between makes. They all pretty much the cost the same, apart from Burton being slightly more expensive. |

For me, despite them not selling boards this year, I would have to say Option.
However I've been very happy with my Nitro Punisher that has lasted me for years and is a pleasure to ride. |

You would have a custom board built to your specs.
If you are trying to do some sort of marketing analysis, i think you will find that people buy brands based on the image they are into first, and the cost second |

Kemper are probably amongst the most prestigious snowboards ever created. |

I'm loving that carbon fibre idea. Needs more stealth bomber markings mind 
How about the Makboard, so you can feel what it's like to ride down the mountain on a perspex scraper? http://www.makboard.com/
Good luck finding bindings that match the colour of that... |
