Ride DH2 2010

The Ride DH2 2010 Snowboard is a twin tip FreeStyle snowboard, that is built to be  a jibbing machine.  The biggest question out there is what is the difference in the Ride DH and the Ride DH2 and I think the easiest explanation is the DH2 is the Ride DH on steroids.  The new Ride DH2 is built to take you to the next level without worrying about getting caught up on any tricks or just ripping up the mountain.

ride-dh2-2010The 2010 Ride DH2 Ride’s new technology of the LowRize Rocker and LowRize sidecut is all about giving you that catch-free ride.  The LowRise sidecut is going to allow you to make those turns at any speed and not worry about catching an edge.  Then to eliminate the hook the LowRize Rocker gives you a flat profile through the center of the board and then begins the rocker at the extended blend zone to lift the contact points just out of the snow.

Overall the Job boarders are going to live this ride, as it is going to help take their ridding to the next level.

Ride DH 2010

The Ride DH has a become a snowboard ‘classic’, anchoring the Ride line up for several years.  The choice of several professional riders, the Ride DH is primarily a freestyle board, and incorporates ‘Pop Stixs’ technology, which gives the board great flex and super pop.  A great all mountain board, the DH can handle everything from biggest hits, to the most technical parks.

In addition to ‘Pop Stixs’, the Ride DH also utilizes 85A Slimewalls and Carbori Array 3; Ride signature technologies which are common many their 2019 boards.  Normally we’d recommend a board with this much technology for more advanced riders, however the Ride DH is forgiving enough for just about anyone, yet powerful enough for the pros.

  • Thin Con
  • Cleave Edge™
  • Hybrid Glass
