I have been enjoying winter sports for many years. I built this calculator to help winter sports enthusiasts track their calorie burn on the slopes.

Snowboarding Calorie Calculator

Snowboarding burns between 300-600 calories per hour, depending on riding style. Backcountry riding with hiking burns the most calories.

How the Calculator Works

Calories Burned = MET × Weight (kg) × Time (hours)

MET Values by Riding Style

Riding Style MET Value
Backcountry/Hiking8.0
Terrain Park7.0
Vigorous Riding6.0
Moderate Resort5.3
Light/Leisurely4.0

Example Calculation

For a 75 kg person snowboarding moderately for 4 hours:

1. MET Value: 5.3 (moderate resort)

2. Calculation: 5.3 × 75 × 4.0 = 1,590 calories
