Vantum 26/27

The RIDE Vantum is a unisex directional all-mountain snowboard with Standard Camber and a medium response. RIDE made it for intermediate and advanced riders who want one board for groomers, powder and side hits.

Standard Camber is a slight camber zone that keeps the board stable on takeoff and landing. The shape has more nose than tail, and the inserts are set back 19 mm. The nose holds RIDE's new Urethane Channel. Sections of the core are milled out and filled with urethane, similar to the material in the Slimewalls. That keeps the nose calm and damps chatter when the snow is chopped up. Zonal Carbon Rails are carbon strips along the edges, running from the contact points to the inserts. They send your power more directly to the contact points. The Quadratic sidecut blends three radii for easy turn initiation and exit and strong edge grip. On the 155 cm board, the waist is 257 mm, and the radius runs from 8.75 m up front through 7.25 m in the middle to 5.5 m at the back. Roll-In Construction is a 3D structure built around the forgiving urethane Slimewalls. It makes the board stronger and lighter and protects the topsheet from chipping.
