The TWINPIG got an upgrade! Now featuring all-new Slim Wall technology for 2021. By creating a fully 3-D composite structure over our proprietary Slimewall® material, this revolutionary technology results in more efficient energy transfer, lighter weight constructions, and even better damping underfoot. The TWINPIG is a twin version of Ride’s most popular WARPIG model. Their engineering team took what everyone liked about the versatility and aggression of the WARPIG and packaged it in a twin shape for someone looking for more freestyle performance while still approaching the mountain with a “thrash everything” mentality that the PIG series is known for. Size the TWINPIG down 3 to 6 cms from your standard twin to take advantage of its unique shape and profile. The TWINPIG isn’t as wide as the WARPIG, but it’s still wider than a traditional twin shape. The asymmetrical shaping improves heelside turn initiation and control with different radii for the heel and toeside edges. This allows the wider platform to effortlessly transfer between edges. A sintered base supplies a faster, more durable ride. The TWINPIG is a park-focused deck that packs all the fun of Ride’s WARPIG into a twin shape and is suitable for all ability levels.
Features:
Asymmetrical Quadratic Sidecut: The blending of three radii to improve turn initiation/exit while providing the best grip possible. Asymmetric sidecut shaping improves heelside turn initiation and control. This offers perfect balance while turning through different radii for the heel and toe side edges; the board feels just right!
Sintered, Stone Ground Base: High-end, sintered 4000 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder, and faster than extruded.
Performance™ Core: High strength Aspen is combined with Bamboo and lightweight Paulownia wood to provide the perfect balance of strong and light.
Cleave-Edge™: Nearly 50% more steel, delivers unmatched resistance to edge cracking and can be detuned for larger radii.
NEW! Slim Walls: By creating a fully 3D composite structure over Slime Wall material, this revolutionary technology results in more efficient energy transfer, lighter weight construction, and even better dampening.
Double Impact Plates: Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most.
Hybrid Glass: triaxal on top, biaxal on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed.
Thin Con: Each Ride board features Thin Construction with tapered tips and tails. This reduces swing weight, enhances tip flex, and improves overall durability.
Wide: A wider waist width for those with larger footprints. Recommended for boot sizes 11.5+
Profile:
Hybrid Camber
Camber between your feet for precision and pop with rocker outside of your inserts for a catch free, float ready ride.
Shape:
Twin
A completely symmetrical shape, which thrives in a variety of freestyle situations. At the core of its design, the twin shape features an identical nose and tail shape, which provides an identical feel and predictable maneuverability whether riding regular or switch. Although originally developed with park riders in mind, twin shapes have also grown to be embraced by many all-mountain riders that like to bring a skateboard style riding out of the park and onto the entire mountain.
Asymmetrical
Asymmetrical boards offer an additional dimension to snowboard design. With a designated toe and heel edge, asymmetrical boards truly realize that your foot is definitely *not symmetrical*. The toe edge is generally slightly longer with a shallower, less aggressive sidecut and the heel edge is generally slightly shorter with a deeper, more reactive sidecut. This is all designed to minimize rider fatigue, while maximizing performance through easier, more natural feeling heelside turns for better response, better carving and more fun!
Flex:
3 – 5 (Scale 1-10)
Versatility at its finest. From the park to the peak and anywhere in between.
Base:
Sintered
High-end base material that is harder, more durable, and faster than extruded bases.
