Slime Walls - A RIDE exclusive, incorporating Urethane sidewall technology to absorb impact and make for a smoother ride. These are also the most durable sidewalls in snowboarding, meaning you can really thrash them, and they will hold their own.

Tapered Elliptical Progressive Sidecut - This sidecut combines tight elliptical curvature at the tip and tail to provide low-speed initiation and response with a larger radial section between the feet for high-speed stability and tracking.

Topless Construction - By transferring graphics directly to the fiberglass, Topless Construction removes the need to have any topsheet material. This process improves overall durability and reduces weight.

Roll-in Construction - 3D structures built around the urethane Slimewalls and designed to increase overall board strength to prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.

The Ride Shadowban is designed to be a quiver killer that can handle everything on the mountain. No longer do you need to have a board just for park, pow, or groomers, because the Shadowban is a perfect all mountain, directional twin that can be used everyday. The mellow flex pattern, with its directional twin camber profile charges hard on groomers while being soft enough to not be too aggressive and make you catch your edge, but is still solid underfoot enough to stomp landings in the jump line in the park and the 19mm setback pattern gives you all the additional float you could ever need when chasing the powder!
