Flow like Blake with the all-new Current

The Current is Blake Paul’s pro model, through and through. Built hand in hand with Blake this is a true all mountain machine. Wanting to get this board right, RIDE worked directly with Blake building over 40 prototypes and testing over 15 different camber profiles until Blake fine-tuned what is the all-new Current. The camber profile features RIDE’s new Multi-Cam shape blending maneuverability, ease of use, pop, and stability into one board. RIDE didn’t stop at camber profile though, the core of this is fully engineered to support the camber profile. With a medium amount of tortional flex between the feet the Current is easy to control while providing the stability you need on hill. The tip and tail are stiffer to pair with the camber sections, so you don’t tomahawk over the nose in pow or loop out off the tail on landings. The sidecut is a radial cut that’s set back on the board so the center of the sidecut matches the setback of the board. RIDE’s Slimewalls and linear carbon finish the Current off to be an all-mountain board that’s stable on the hardpack, floats in pow, and keeps you upright when the conditions try to buck you around.

TECHNOLOGY

CAMBER PROFILE

Multi Camber

A mix of traditional and reverse camber. Multi Camber blends maneuverability, ease of use, pop, and stability into one board.

SHAPE

Directional

Designed to be ridden in one direction. More nose than tail, set back stance, and a sidecut to match. Can you still ride it switch? Yeah, of course. Is it going to be as good riding switch all day long? Probably not.

SIDECUT

Tapered Radial Sidecut
Single radius sidecut with a wider nose than tail

SIDEWALL

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.

Roll-In Construction

Unique 3D structure built around our urethane Slimewall® sidewalls. Designed to increase overall board strength, prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.

Carbon Slimewalls®

This totally unique sidewall combines layers of Slimewalls® material and carbon strategically placed at the inserts out to the contact points in the tip and tail on a twin, and the back inserts to the contact points in the tail on a directional board. This exclusive tech enhances the charging rider’s experience as we have moved the carbon pop construction to the outside edge for better stability and enhanced response.

LAMINATES

Linear Carbon 10

10 Strips of carbon running tip to tail, added below the core provide 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.

 

Carbon Array™ 5

This power distribution technology provides total board control in every stance location. Widespread carbon stringers placed at the binding zone gather input from any stance width and all pressure angles. Rider input is then channeled to the opposing contact point for maximum board control. Offered in two levels of technology, 3 & 5.

FIBERGLASS

Hybrid Glass

Triaxial on top, biaxial on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed.

BASE MATERIAL

Sintered 4000 Base

High-end sintered 4000 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder and faster than extruded.

Stone Ground

The absolute best way to finish building a snowboard. Nice and flat base, no weird bumps or extra material. Stone ground is the way to go, ask your local tune shop.

Core

Performance™ Light

Specially formulated for the women’s line, this core combines lightweight Paulownia wood stringers with high strength Aspen.

EDGES

Standard Topsheet

Durable Urethane topsheet material with graphics only RIDE can bring you.

SUSTAINABILITY

Bio Resin

Our plant based Bio Resin is one of the biggest impacts for sustainability. By using a Bio based resin instead of a traditional epoxy to assemble boards, we’re able to drastically reduce our carbon emissions while using less toxic chemicals. Win-win for everyone.

Wend® Meadowfoam Biodegradable Wax

The Meadowfoam® factory wax we use is made from wildflower seeds native to California and Oregon. All WEND® Meadowfoam® snow wax blends are non-toxic and completely biodegradable.

30% Recycled Steel Edges

Everyone knows about recycling, but nobody thinks about it when it comes to snowboard edges. Hell, do people even think about their snowboard edges? Luckily for you we’re thinking of both. Edges on RIDE Snowboards contain 30% recycled materials. That means part of your snowboard could be made out of a car, an airplane, a building, who knows. Anything steel and recycled could turn into a snowboard edge.

FSC® Certified Paper Packaging

What does this mean for snowboard packaging? Well how about those stickers on the base that are a pain in the ass to peel off? Yup, made with FSC® Certified Materials. Boxes the boards are shipped in? Also FCS® Certified.

44% Solar Production Energy

44% and rising! We’re working with our factories to utilize solar energy when producing RIDE products. We’re currently at using 44% sustainable solar energy, with plans in the works to grow that number in the coming years.
