The Ride Moderator is your all-mountain freeride companion, built for intermediate to advanced riders who crave a versatile board for any adventure. This directional camber with rocker profile offers both powerful carving and effortless float. Whether you're laying down trenches on groomers or exploring fresh powder stashes, the Moderator keeps you in control. Ride's innovative Slim Walls® technology takes center stage, offering a lightweight construction with efficient energy transfer for a responsive feel. Carbon Array 3 stringers work their magic by channeling your input to the opposite edge, maximizing board control regardless of your stance or how you angle the board. For added pop and liveliness, Ride incorporates Linear Carbon technology. These carbon strips under the core enhance ollie power for effortless jumps and playful maneuvers. The Ride Moderator strikes the perfect balance between carving precision, powder performance, and playful response, making it your ideal partner for conquering any mountain.
Slim Walls® - Ride's Slim Wall® technology is the evolution of their Roll-In Construction to its extreme limit. By creating a fully 3D composite structure over Slimewall® material, this revolutionary technology results in more efficient energy transfer, lighter weight construction, and even better damping.
Thin Construction Tapered Tips - ALL Ride boards feature tapered tips and tails to reduce swing weight and enhance tip flex.
Hybrid Triax/Biax Fiberglass - A layer of triaxial fiberglass on top of the board with biaxial on the base balances torsion and stiffness for better response at speed. Ride takes stitched glass to new levels and tailors it to each board's needs. Their unique glass designs are flatter and more consistent, which increases strength and prevents gaps or stretching that can be found in woven glass.
Carbon Array 3 Carbon Stringers - 3 widespread carbon stringers are placed at the binding zone to gather input from any stance width and all pressure angles. Rider input is then channeled to the opposing contact point for maximum board control.
Linear Carbon - Carbon increases pop and liveliness while enhancing the strength of the board. Linear Carbon technology uses carbon strips under the core to add more snap for ollie power.
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.
Sintered Base - This high end sintered 4000 Ptex base material is more durable, harder and faster than extruded.
3 Year Warranty - Covered under manufacturer warranty for 3 years from the time of purchase. Warranty includes structural defects only and DOES NOT cover impact damage, abuse, misuse or normal wear and tear expected from aggressive riding.
Sorry folks, but bashing your board on a rock or rail does not qualify as a "manufacturer's defect" and will not be honored.
