The new 2010 Ride Machete snowboard was voted Snowboarder Magazine’s number one in the Men’s Best of Test category, and given its incredible all mountain performance, we’d have to agree.
The Ride Machete comes loaded with Ride’s innovative board technology, including LowRize rocker sidecut which minimizes hook while maintaining great pop. As with most Ride’s 2010 boards, the Machete features 85A Slimewalls which are extremely durable, and maintain forgiveness even when the temperatures dip below zero degrees. The board is soft enough to be fun in the park, but remains stable at high speeds.
Bottom line is the Ride Machete is a Swiss army knife on the mountain, suitable for intermediate through very advanced riders.
Key Features of the Ride Machete Snowboard include the following:
- 85A Slimewalls sidewals
- LowRize Rocker
- Cleave Edge edges
- Performance Tuned Core
- Biaxial Glass top
- Fusion 4000 Base
- LowRize sidecut

This really is an awesome board to do it all from Powder to Rails.
Just took this board out on the weekend. I have to say a was very pleased how this board handled . Really easy to ride. and picks up speed very fast. You can really work this board. Board is a little stiff but did really notice it b/c I was really enjoying the RIDE. If you have a chance take it for a ride and make your own decision. You just might end up picking up this board. Also the machete does ride alot better then most boards between $600 to $1000. check It out!
