Ride Moderator Snowboard 2026
RIDE Moderator Snowboard 2026
The RIDE Moderator is a unisex, all-mountain freeride board built to do everything in one deck. With a tapered directional shape, extra camber profile, and medium flex, it’s made to carve hard, float on deeper days, and stay playful enough to pop sidehits and explore every line on the hill.
Quiver-Killer All-Mountain Performance
- Tapered Directional Extra Camber: A camber-dominant profile with a touch of rocker in the nose gives you powerful edge hold and pop, plus easy float and turn initiation when the snow gets soft.
- Tapered Linear Quadratic Sidecut: Blended radii through the sidecut provide smooth, catch-free turn entry and strong, confident grip through the exit so you can lay down precise carves without washing out.
- Medium Flex, Standard Length: A true medium flex keeps the Moderator stable at speed yet responsive and forgiving enough for everyday resort riding—no need to size down, just ride your usual length.
Premium Construction, Lighter Feel
- Performance Light™ Core: Lightweight Paulownia and strong Aspen, reinforced with Bamboo, deliver a lively, damp ride that feels light underfoot but holds up when you push it.
- Linear Carbon, Carbon Array™ 3 & Hybrid Glass: Carbon stringers and a triax/biax fiberglass layup boost ollie power, responsiveness, and edge-to-edge control without making the board overly stiff or twitchy.
- Slim Walls® with Slimewall® damping: A 3D composite structure over urethane sidewalls reduces weight, improves energy transfer, and smooths out chatter in chop, crud, and hardpack.
- Sintered 4000 stone-ground base: A fast, durable base material finished with a stone grind for consistent glide and excellent wax absorption in all conditions.
- Impact-ready details: Single Impact Plates under each binding zone add compressive strength to help prevent breaks, while Carbon Array™ 3 channels your input directly to the contact points for precise control.
Who It’s For
The Moderator is ideal for intermediate to advanced riders who want a single board that can handle groomers, steeps, trees, and powder without feeling like a stiff charger. If you like the idea of a freeride board that still feels lively, maneuverable, and fun to ride every day, this “one-board quiver” is built for you.
