RIDE SMOKESCREEN WIDE

RIDE SMOKESCREEN WIDE

Who knows why there's one distinctive trait shared by all those riders who film in powder in impossible spots doing inhuman things. No bro, this common trait isn't a passion for cheesy pop bands, nor the fact that they mix Campari with the liquid that leaks out of Duracell batteries to get high, and, sorry to disappoint you, not even owning a '99 LPG hatchback. When you've finished looking for similarities with your own meagre existence I can reveal the secret, and you'll be amazed to discover that it's simply the fact of being born in terrifyingly good locations. When Jake Welch's mum decided to spit him out in Sandy, exactly 20km from Salt Lake City, she didn't know the Winter Games would be held right there, nor did she imagine that little Jake would take the surrounding mountains as his winter residence and become one hell of a rider. The board capable of accompanying him on his raids is necessarily a definitive all-mountain beast, and the Smokescreen is its perfect embodiment. Thanks to the Carbon Array 3 laminates, power transmission is perfect even when it comes to laying down nasty turns on piste; thanks to the set-back camber with wide tail rocker, turns are progressive and powerful, while in powder the float is dreamlike. The rest of the structure is first class and this season too the artwork wakes up the gapers with straight rights to the gums.

SNOWBOARD SMOKESCREEN WIDE RIDE

• SMOKESCREEN Directional Standard Camber Profile: the wide front rocker guarantees excellent float, without forgetting a set-back camber zone so you don't lose the precision you need when carving.
• SMOKESCREEN Elliptical Progressive Sidecut: this sidecut has a tighter initial and final radius for lightning-quick edge changes, combined with a very open central sidecut section for extra stability and sensational speed on edge.
• SMOKESCREEN Sintered Sole: the sintered base made of PTex 4000 is tough and very fast.
• SMOKESCREEN Performance Core Core: to the tried-and-tested Aspen of its Performance Core, Ride has cleverly added Bamboo stringers and Paulownia woods to combine responsiveness and light weight.
• SMOKESCREEN Slimewalls Inserts: with Slimewalls the board gains impact resistance on the edges, vibration absorption at speed and increased edge feel.
• SMOKESCREEN Impact Plates Inserts: if you kind of suck or you go really big (the former is more likely), every now and then the Impact Plates placed under the bindings will save your backside and your board on the worst impacts and the least successful tricks.
• SMOKESCREEN Carbon Array Inserts: the Carbon Array inserts fan out like a comb from the bindings to the contact points on the edge, increasing edge feel and the board's torsional flex for precise carving and millimetre-accurate manoeuvres.
• SMOKESCREEN Topless Construction : by brushing the graphic directly onto the core's fibreglass, a whole layer is skipped, all to the benefit of light weight.
• SMOKESCREEN Hybrid Glass Inserts: by placing triaxial fibreglass in the nose and biaxial in the tail, the board gets excellent stability, perfectly balancing torsional stiffness and ease of manoeuvre.
• SMOKESCREEN Roll-in Construction : a 3D structure built around the Slimewalls that improves the board's construction, prevents topsheet wear and reduces weight.
