Country of manufacture has more to do with the quality of a boards construction than brand.
European "Brands" have always offered a better valued product in terms of design, construction, materials & longevity. It's part of the culture to build better tools for glisse. They've been making skis for centuries in Europe. Every Ski/Board technician recognizes this. European equipment suffers in this country because it's expensive to import & market it against the large US/Chinese corporations churning out generally crap gear which doesn't hold up at all against quality made European gear. Only a small number of US manufacturers consign European board makers to build higher end performance & race boards for them. This just goes to prove Euros make better boards than all others, especially when it comes to Quality, Performance & Longevity. Palmer snowboards are constructed in Switzerland & are highly recommended!
Just trying to help you to make a wise, educated decision as I have 30 + years experience working as a ski/board/bike tech all over the world for many different shops & ski teams.

Cheers
