Description
2025 Ride Moderator Snowboard
Moderate your way to the goods.
The all-new unisex Moderator is your new quiver killer. Truly one board for everything. A medium (some might even say moderate) flex with a Tapered Directional Extra Camber profile, this board is built for smooth turns and pop while having just enough rise in the nose to float on those deeper days. No need to swap out decks or change your stance depending on conditions. The Moderator should be ridden in a standard length, no downsize needed. The Tapered Linear Quadratic Sidecut is designed for smooth turn initiation and powerful grip without washing out. The Moderator features our Slim Wall construction, where a urethane layer runs along the edge of the board to increase flex and damping to create a board that is at home anywhere on the mountain. This is a premium all-mountain board and features RIDE's Performance™ Light Core, Carbon Array™ 3, Sintered Stone Ground Base, and bio-resin. The Moderator will take you anywhere you want to go.
Camber Profile
- Directional Extra Camber – Directional positive camber dominant shape with rocker just in the nose.
Flex
- Response – Medium/Aggressive
Shape
- Linear Quadratic Sidecut – A directional sidecut utilizing Quadratic curvature from the tip to the rear insert pack, then progressing into a linear section into the tail. This creates smooth catch-free turn initiation and powerful support through the turn exit without losing grip.
Core
- Performance™ Light Core – Specially formulated for the women’s line, this core combines lightweight Paulownia wood stringers with high strength Aspen.
Laminates
- Carbon Array™ 3 Laminates – 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.
- Double Impact Plates – 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.
-
Pre-Cured Glass Fiberglass – USA-made pre-cured fiberglass optimizes glass to resin ratios to create the most consistent flex pattern possible. No other glass provides this level of stability and control.
Sidewalls
- Slim Walls® – Ride's Slim Wall technology is the evolution of our Roll-in Construction to its extreme limit. By creating a fully 3-D composite structure over Slimewall® material, this revolutionary technology results in more efficient energy transfer, lighter weight construction, and even better damping.
Base
- Stone Ground Sintered Base – High-end sintered 400 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder, and faster than other extruded bases.
Binding Compatibility
- 2 x 4 Inserts
