Good snowboard brand?

I just started snowboarding this year and really enjoy it. I have been thinking about buying a board, so I don't have to pay the rental fee every time i go. I live over an hour from the closest ski resort, and only get to snowboard 2 or 3 times a year, so I don't want to spend a ton of money on a board. For anyone who has snowboarding experience, what is a decent board for someone who will be snowboarding as much as I do?
