9506.11.40.10 - Snowboards

This HTS classification, 9506.11.40.10, specifically designates "Snowboards." These are specialized boards designed for sliding downhill on snow, characterized by their wider width compared to skis and their continuous edge. Snowboards are intended for recreational and competitive snow sports, distinct from traditional ski equipment due to their unique construction and riding style.

Within the broader category of "Other skis" (9506.11.40), this subheading for snowboards differentiates itself from its sibling category, "Other" (9506.11.40.80), which would encompass any other type of ski not specifically enumerated. The classification of snowboards is based on their function as a single board for snow recreation, as opposed to the paired skis typically associated with alpine or cross-country skiing.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subcategories under 9506.11.40.10. Classification at this level is determined by the item being a snowboard, intended for snow sport. The scope of this classification does not extend to bindings, boots, or other accessories, which would be classified separately under their respective HTS provisions.
