The Ride Moderator Snowboard is a softer, more accessible version of the popular Deep Fake board. Built for progressing freeriders who don't need quite as much power for everyday riding, it features a directional all mountain shape with Ride's Tapered Linear Quadratic Sidecut for stability and edge hold, and a carbon reinforced Performance Light™ Core for snappy, lightweight performance. A huge size run from 144 to 165W means this unisex ripper has something to offer every rider.
Directional Extra Camber – Directional, positive camber dominant shape with rocker just in the nose.
Medium Response
Tapered Linear Quadratic Sidecut – A directional sidecut utilizing Quadratic curvature from the tip to the rear insert pack, then progressing into a linear section into the tail. This creates smooth catch-free turn initiation and powerful support through the turn exit without losing grip.
Performance Light™ Core – High strength Aspen is combined with Bamboo and lightweight Paulownia wood to provide the perfect balance of strong and light.
Linear Carbon – Two stringers of carbon running tip to tail add more snap for bigger ollie power.
Carbon Array 3™ – This power distribution technology provides total board control in every stance location. Widespread carbon stringers placed at the binding zone gather input from any stance width and all pressure angles. Rider input is then channeled to the opposing contact point for maximum board control. Offered in two levels of technology, 3 & 5.
Pre-Cured Glass – USA-made pre-cured fiberglass optimizes glass to resin ratios to create the most consistent flex pattern possible. No other glass provides this level of stability and control.
Single Impact Plates – Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most. Offered in two levels, Single and Double.
Slim Walls® – A 3D composite structure positioned over Slimewall® material reduces weight, dampens the ride, and results in superior energy transfer
Sintered, Stone Ground Base – High-end sintered 4000 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder and faster than extruded.
