Ride Society Snowboard
Built for going large, the Ride Society Snowboard wants you to find the biggest jump on the mountain and point it. Ride uses 85A-durometer urethane in this freestyle deck's sidewalls. Just like on your longboard wheels, the urethane reduces vibration for a smooth ride on the run in and landings. A screaming fast Fusion 4000 sintered base ensures you'll have enough speed to make the transition. Ride added its Carbon Array 5 for unmatched responsiveness, control and power transfer, and Pop Rods in the Society's core store and then release energy for explosive pop. If you still doubt this freestyle board's performance, consider this—the Society is the choice of freestyle rulers Juusto Laivisto and Aki Hiraoka. *These boards arrived with assorted colored bases. We have no control over which color you'll get.
- Thin Con construction reduces swing weight for more spins
- 85A Slimewalls absorb chatter and vibrations so your ride stays smooth
- Carbon Array 5 adds responsiveness, control, and power transfer like you've never seen
- Membrain topsheet reduces weight and is more environmentally friendly without sacrificing strength
- Pop Rods in the core add more pop than your 80s mixtape collection
- Fusion 4000 base is fast as feck
- Pop Glass carbon fiber-enhanced glass adds pop without adding stiffness
- Cleave Edge adds more steel to the edges making them more resistant to cracking, and can be custom detuned for larger radii
Bottom Line: The Ride Society Snowboard has something in common with MJ; it's the king of pop.

I have last yrs model and i must say. it is freaking awesome. By far the best board i have ever ridden on. I'm 5'9 165 and use a 154. works perfectly. Im all over the place on the mountain. Park-Steep Slopes. it handles great wherever i go. Great on the pipe as well. toEverything about it is great. no complaints at all. i ride on the east cost and i was surprised to see how well it handled on ice. The slimewalls really dig in and make it smoother. Overall great board!

The Society is back again for Oh'10 and is the same great board that it has been the past few years. The only thing that has changed from last year are the graphics. The Society features Carbon Array 5 to keep it snappy in the nose and tail, but is softer between the bindings so it's still playful on boxes and rails.
It also features a tech Ride introduced last year called Pop Rods. Ride has inserted two hollow carbon rods in the nose and tail of the board. This allows you to really load up the nose and tail and spring higher then you have before.
Combined with a True color sintered base that is fast in all conditions, 85a slimewalls and a quadratic sidecut the society will take everything you throw at it. This board is perfect for the rider that loves the park but wants something that will not let you down anywhere on the mountain.
Unfortunately ride doesn't make a wide version of this deck and the 24.9-25.2 waist widths really max out at a US 10.5 boot size. If you are rocking an 11-11.5 check out Ride's RFL and FUL boot that have reduced foot prints that will allow you to squeeze on this deck without plates.
Change me.
