2 options for manual size in a ring binder folder:
1. A4 size
Pros
- easy to print the yearly updates at home - common size paper.
- bigger/easier to study from.
Cons
- bigger folder to carry around.
- more expensive to purchase - approx $75 we are expecting.
2. A5 size
Pros
- easier to carry with you - half the size of the A4.
- hoping cheaper to purchase than the A4.
Cons
- harder to print updates at home as need to be able to print A5.
Note that all divisions will have a digital manual regardless, following the format of the new snowboard E-manual. These E-manuals will be accessible through the NZSIA app, making them very portable and easy to use as a quick reference tool.
For those of you that don't have a printer at home, the updates will be available to purchase from NZSIA for a small charge (eg $5) The other alternative would be to send to a print shop like the Stationary Warehouse to print in which case paper size would be irrelevant.
