The Kink is built for serious abuse. The soft flexing twin features hybrid camber, a board profile that understands snowboard satisfaction can only truly be achieved with a little control. Hybrid camber gives you a small amount of rocker under the tip and tail for a catch-free feel at the contact points and camber under foot to give you all the pop and control you need when you want to spank a rail or show the jump line who's boss. Our Cleave Edge Steel edges are 50% thicker than standard steel edges and when combined with our SlimeWall technology, the Kink pushes snowboard durability to a new level. Always a team favorite, this board will perform on jumps, rails or in the street. The Kink will take all the abuse you can give, and come crawling back for more.

SLIMEWALLS®
RIDE’s exclusive Slimewalls® are forgiving and ductile, absorbing impacts rather than defending against them. Just like your skate wheels, the urethane in Slimewalls® smoothes the interaction with the snow, wood or metal surfaces you may RIDE on. On top of all that, these babies are virtually indestructible, the most durable sidewalls in snowboarding.
-
ROLL IN SLIMEWALLS®
Unique 3D fiberglass structure built around our urethane Slimewall® sidewalls. Designed to increase overall board strength, prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.
-
IMPACT PLATES
Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strenth and prevent board breaks where it matters most. Offered in two levels - single and double.
-
STANDARD TOP SHEET
Durable topsheet with graphics only RIDE can bring you.
