Product Overview
The all-new unisex Moderator is your new quiver killer. Truly one board for everything. A medium (some might even say moderate) flex with a Tapered Directional Extra Camber profile, this board is built for smooth turns and pop while having just enough rise in the nose to float on those deeper days. No need to swap out decks or change your stance depending on conditions. The Moderator should be ridden in a standard length, no downsize needed. The Tapered Linear Quadratic Sidecut is designed for smooth turn initiation and powerful grip without washing out. The Moderator features our Slim Wall construction, where a urethane layer runs along the edge of the board to increase flex and damping to create a board that is at home anywhere on the mountain. This is a premium all-mountain board and features RIDE's Performance™ Light Core, Carbon Array™ 3, Sintered Stone Ground Base, and bio-resin. The Moderator will take you anywhere you want to go.

TECHNOLOGY
Linear Quadratic Sidecut:
A directional sidecut utilizing Quadratic curvature from the tip to the rear insert pack, then progressing into a linear section into the tail. This creates smooth catch-free turn initiation and powerful support through the turn exit without losing grip.
Pre-Cured Glass Fiberglass:
USA-made pre-cured fiberglass optimizes glass to resin ratios to create the most consistent flex pattern possible. No other glass provides this level of stability and control.
Performance Light Core:
Specially formulated for the women’s line, this core combines lightweight Paulownia wood stringers with high strength Aspen.
Carbon Array Laminates:
This power distribution technology provides total board control in every stance location. Widespread carbon stringers placed at the binding zone gather input from any stance width and all pressure angles. Rider input is then channeled to the opposing contact point for maximum board control. Offered in two levels of technology, 3 & 5.
Impact Plates Laminates:
Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most. Offered in two levels, Single and Double.
Slim Walls:
Sintered Base:
High-end sintered 4000 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder and faster than extruded.
Hybrid Glass:
Triaxial on top, biaxial on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed.
Linear Carbon Laminates:
Two strips of carbon added below the core provide more snap for ollie power.
RIDE Snowboard Technology:
Engineered by snowboarders, for the most demanding riders on the planet. With over 30 years of experience in building high-quality products.
