OMG snowboard
Serious Freestyle Goodness
Combining the surfy feel of rocker in the tip and tail with the hard charging pop you get from traditional camber under foot, the 2012 Ride OMG women's snowboard is a Hybrid Twin snowboard that offers the max in versatility and stability. Built to go big without the fear of rocker washout, the Ride OMG is ideal for skilled freestyle snowboarders that require a playful feel and true landing control. Complete with Ladies specific Pop Rods 1.0®, 85A Slimewalls® and Cleave Edge™ for a full dose of smooth-riding durability. Although actions speak louder than words, so watch for Hana Beaman killing it on the OMG as her go-to Ride this season.

Comments about Ride Snowboards OMG:
Right, I'm mainly a dryslope Rider 3 times a week. had the Ride Fever board back in 2008, and more recently another brand Rocker (which I hated)
The OMG is defiantly a cut above the rest. Camber boards are catchy, where rockers wash out because there isn't enough edge grip. The OMG has the edge grip and action of a camber board but also the none catchyness of a rocker. It is the best of both worlds.
You don't have to put in as much effort on turns to get the camber working for you. it locks in to the turns much quicker.
The board is also very forgiving if you do put an edge wrong it lets you react before the edge actually catches.
Just a word on the base of the board. It has the same base as my old Ride fever. dispite riding dryslope for 4 years with the board there is bairly a scratch on the base. what damage there is was due to rocks in the Cairngorms, and they are nothing to write home about. The OMG has the same base. keep it waxed and this board will last.

FEATURED TECH
LSD
All LSD board shapes feature a narrower waist width, a ladies specific flex pattern, sidecut and finely tuned rocker profile.
NEW! HYBRID TWIN
This twin shape features micro-rocker in the tip and tail and a level micro-camber zone between the feet.
LSD POP RODS 1.0
LSD Pop Rods® feature an entirely new shape for the Ladies. These new rods taper in thickness to place more carbon closer to the inserts and less carbon towards the tip and/or tail. This enables ladies to pop with ease onto features and smaller transitions, but retain maximum carbon fiber when needed on bigger kickers and in the pipe. Available in 2 levels, 1.0 and 2.0.
85A SLIMEWALLS
Ride’s exclusive Slimewalls® are forgiving and ductile, absorbing impacts rather than defending against them. Just like your skate wheels, the urethane in Slimewalls® smoothes the interaction with the snow, wood or metal surfaces you may Ride on. On top of all that, these babies are virtually indestructible, the most durable sidewalls in snowboarding.
