You’re gonna definitely want wild prints (like plaid or stripes) and/or neon/electric colors if you want to be noticed and remembered. When I think of memorable outfits I think of Torah Bright’s 2010 Olympics half pipe outfit (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g5BNJN6pX_s) and iPod’s Winter X Games 2010 half pipe outfit (http://www.zimbio.com/pictures/m9_1y2nbXNl/Snowboard+Day+6/lIji20a07LH/Iouri+Podladtchikov). But, if you do go with neon colors, you generally have to balance out the color with an either toned down color like torah’s blue jacket or a neutral color like iPod’s black jacket or else you may end of looking tacky or not put together (Of course there are always some exceptions).

The most memorable colors are generally the prime colors (red, blue, and yellow) from my own experiences, but "Studies also show gender differences in color memories and color preferences. Statistically, women find dark blue, and then yellow the most memorable colors. Men find purple, and then dark blue most memorable. Yellow is much less memorable for men. Preferentially, women list shades of red first; men list shades of blue. [...] With mixed genders, top preferences are: 1.Red, 2.Blue, 3.Purple, 4.Green, and 5.Orange."

Here are some great examples of clothes you should get! Hope you like them:

As far as snowboard/bindings/gloves/hats/helmets go, usually you can base them off of the snowboard and outfit that you get. But remember, get a very good quality snowboard and good quality bindings first before you buy anything else, because those are the main tools that you will use to win, and you can’t get sponsors by losing. Good luck!!
