Product Details
The Manic is designed to take on the entire mountain. The Directional Standard Camber shape has camber between the bindings for snap and control with rocker at the tip and tail, providing effortless turn initiation and performance. The Quadratic Sidecut improves turn initiation/exit and edge grip. Slimewalls® provide a smooth ride and increased durability. Linear Carbon is positioned below the core for snap and ollie power without added stiffness. The softer flex of the Manic makes it a solid all-mountain board for beginner to intermediate riders.
Details
- Standard Camber Profile: A little bit of rise, medium amount of traditional camber.
- Directional Shape: 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.
- Quadratic Sidecut: Blending of three radii to improve turn initiation/exit while providing the best grip possible. This design is uniquely formulated for each model based on its shape and riding style.
- 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.
- Biaxial Glass Fibreglass: 90° and 0° angles, fun and forgiving.
- Linear Carbon Laminates: Two strips of carbon added below the core provide more snap for ollie power.
- Single Impact Plates Laminates: Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most.
- Extruded 1500 Base: The industry standard extruded 1500 ptex base material. Good wax absorption and easy to repair.
- Stone Ground Base: 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.
- Foundation™ Core: Tip-to-tail aspen wood core with proven durability that retains pop and flex.
- Standard top sheet edges: Durable urethane topsheet material with graphics only ride can bring you.
- 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. 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 FSC® certified.
- 44% Solar Energy Production: 44% and rising! Ride is working with their factories to utilize solar energy when producing ride products. They are currently at using 44% sustainable solar energy, with plans in the works to grow that number in the coming years.
- FSC® certified mix cores: The core of your ride snowboard, made out of wood. What does fsc® do? They work with forest managers, business, and consumers to maintain healthy forests forever. That means they work with wood providers to make sure everything is grown and harvested in a sustainable fashion. Which means you can feel better about that piece of wood under your feet.
- Ride Snowboard Technology: Engineered by snowboarders, for the most demanding riders on the planet. With over 30 years of experience in building high-quality products.
