How to Prevent Rust on a snowboard:

Wiping your snowboard dry after use - particularly its steel edges - will prolong its life.

Instructions

STEP 1: Wipe all snow and moisture off your snowboard with a dry rag or T-shirt when you're through for the day.
STEP 2: Leave the board upright so any remaining ice or water will run off the board.
STEP 3: Store your board where the temperature will not dip below freezing. Leaving a board outside, on a roof rack, or in a garage can cause damage to the board's base, bindings and surface graphics.

How to keep your snowboard edges from rusting - After you go snowboarding run chapstick or lip balm around the edges of your snowboard - it seals it up and protects it from rust, and it comes off as soon as you go snowboarding the next time.

How to keep your snowboard edges from rusting - You can also use a candle along the edge. It works the same as Chap Stick or lip balm.

Anti rust product - You can buy a pen that you paint the edges with to give anti rust protection. Unlike using wax, this stuff does more than seal out air and moisture, it works actively to prevent rust.

The one I use is made by Bakoda.

Failing that, buy a Burton board with stainless steel edges!
