About the original
The Ride Shadowban is a directional-twin all-mountain snowboard with a standard-camber profile, a Performance Core of aspen, bamboo, and paulownia, and Carbon Array 3 reinforcement that runs at the contact points for edge response without stiffening the flex pattern. Ride Snowboards was founded in Preston, Washington in 1992 and is now part of K2 Sports' winter hardgoods portfolio. The Shadowban runs a quadratic sidecut and a Stone-Ground 4000 sintered base for wax retention, with a 20mm setback stance for park and powder versatility. The Supreme version was released in 151, 154, and 157 cm lengths with a custom topsheet graphic replacing Ride's stock art.
