Name: Ride DH
Cost: £340
Year: 2006/7

A excellent all round park board. Good at rails, boxes, kickers and pipe. The board is light weight, very quick, mid flex so its not too stiff or too soft and has good pop. Its a true twin shape so no problem riding switch. The board is aimed at intermediate and advanced riders.

The only downside is the cost, but its worth it.


Edit: sorry price was wrong

I tested both the Kink & the DH from Ride. Chose Kink because its loads of fun during a jib session on rails and kickers. So much flex,,! but also stifness for snow.

Definately test the kink aswell b4 spending the £ on a Ride DH!

We have tested this board extensively, at the Brits in Laax, The Board Test in Austria and even Tamworth for a couple of weeks.

It is such a good board, Ride have blended everything perfectly, flex pattern, torsional stiffness the lot. It just feels so good on anything you throw it at. Smiles all round.

Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy Very Happy

5 smiles out of 5
