RV Rentals are a great way to travel by RV without actually owning one. You can vacation, see new places and learn more about your RV lifestyle firsthand. It's a good idea to rent an RV before you buy.

Here are some tips for renting an RV:

Plan where you want to go. Consider places you want to see, and how much time you have. Depending on season and popularity of your destination, you may need to make campground reservations.

Decide on right mix of travel time and stopping time. We suggest you allow some "down" time with no particular agenda. Moving everyday or constantly driving long distances, leaves little time to relax or fully explore your destinations.

Remember interests of everyone going on trip. Perhaps you have a mental picture of enjoying great outdoors, fishing in peaceful solitude. You envision old-fashioned good times and bringing family closer together. Before you get too carried away...make sure rest of family is on same wavelength. Otherwise, your trip will be less than ideal.

Consider type of RV you want to rent. If you can rent a model that is similar to one you are considering for your RV lifestyle, your "trial" will be more realistic. Most RV Rental companies rent motorhomes. Class C "cab over" motorhomes are typical, but smaller class B (camper vans) and larger Class A motorhome rentals are often part of line-up.

Pop-ups (tent campers) can be rented from many places. Towable fifth wheels and trailers may not be as prevalent, but can be found at a growing number of companies.

And many companies rent RV units designed to tow large gear (some brand names include Fun Mover, Toy Hauler and Raptor), which have space in back of unit for motorcycles, ATVs, golf carts, maybe equipment or inventory you use in a job on road. More lifestyle choices!

Research RV Rental Locations: Are you going to rent near your home? Or will you travel to a pick up location?

What are you going to bring? This might make a difference in where you go, as well as where to rent. Note that many RV rental companies rent RV livability packages -- which include kitchen utensils, pots and pans, linens, towels, and like. Some also rent bicycles, folding chairs and grills. And some RV rental companies accommodate fly/drive renters by providing helpful transportation from a nearby airport.

The boots that you wear when snowboarding will make a huge difference with your ability to control your snowboard and your comfort on hill. You will quickly find that cold, sore or wet feet will destroy a day of snowboarding faster than anything else will.

When it comes time for shopping for your snowboarding boots it is important to get correct style of boot for type of snowboarding you intend to do. There are three types of snowboarding boots commonly available, soft boot, hard boot and hybrid boot.

While each boot is different on outside, insides tend to be same. All snowboarding boots have a liner called inner bladder. This inner bladder cushions and supports your feet, draws away water keeping your feet dry and keeps your feet warm. Generally inner bladder will have its own laces so you will be able to secure inner bladder to your foot in a way that is comfortable to you.

The soft boot is a specially designed boot that is very different from skiing boots. Soft boots are most comfortable style of boot and can be used with Highback Bindings and Flow-in Bindings. The soft boot allows for a large amount of movement in just about any direction. For this reason soft boots are a must for pulling tricks since they are great for doing whatever you want. Also, soft boots are fairly comfortable for walking and even driving your car when you're not on board.
