Mt Ruapehu here. What level of snowboarder are you? The answer to your question differs depending on the level of terrain you'll be riding.
If you're just starting out you'll find the beginners' areas at Whakapapa and Turoa are both great.
Whakapapa has a massive beginners' area with heaps of room to practice on. It has a slow-moving chairlift to get you up the slope so your legs get a wee rest after each run.
Turoa's beginners' area is smaller but tends to get less people so there's still enough space to get the hang of things. It has a 120m carpet lift, which is like a conveyer belt on the snow - you just stand on it and it takes you up the slope - really easy!
If you're an intermediate rider you'll probably find the smooth wide open groomed runs at Turoa easier than the slopes at Whakapapa. Plus you'll find you can access all the terrain at Turoa from chairlifts while the upper mountain at Whakapapa is mostly accessed by T-bar and that can be difficult (and tiring) for snowboarders to get the hang of.
