Ride Compact Snowboard – Playful, Smooth, and Easy to Ride
The Ride Compact is a soft-flexing directional all-mountain board, perfect for riders of all ability levels who want to have fun and progress on the mountain. Its forgiving design makes it easy to control and maneuver, making it ideal for cruising groomers, hitting side hits, or venturing into the park.
With its standard camber profile, the Compact offers reliable pop and control while maintaining a smooth, easygoing feel. The Quadratic Sidecut enhances edge grip and turn initiation, while Slimewalls® provide impact absorption and durability. Whether you're a beginner or an intermediate rider, the Compact is designed to help you feel confident and in control in any condition.

Key Features:
- Directional Standard Camber with Rocker Nose: Provides predictable pop and control with a rockered nose for better float and turn initiation.
- Stone Ground Extruded Base: Low-maintenance and durable, designed to keep you riding fast with minimal upkeep, and pre-ground for better glide.
- Performanceâ„¢ Light Core: A blend of Aspen, Bamboo, and Paulownia woods delivers a light and strong core that provides durability, snap, and edge-to-edge responsiveness.

- Biaxial Glass: A softer, more forgiving fiberglass layup that keeps the board playful and fun to ride.
