    Comments about Ride Snowboards Machete Wide:

    Just got this board and so far I've had only one day on the mountain, but was very impressed. It was a day of mostly groomers with a bit of wet new snow on top. This board charged through it all. It held an edge perfectly on the hard stuff, transitions from edge to edge effortlessly, and absorbs a ton of vibration. Not much chatter at all. It also felt really stable at high speed, which I was a bit nervous about at first since it's my first rocker. Spent a little time in the park and it did well getting up and off rails, and showed some pop on some small jumps. Overall just a sweet board.

    Lowrize™
    LOWRIZE™

    A twin rockered shape that just lifts the contact points out of the snow and has a nearly flat zone under foot.

    85A Slimewalls
    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.
