Ride 2023 Russell X Algorhythm Limited Edition Snowboard
The Algorythm quickly turned into a team and staff favorite at Ride. The versatility of this shape is unmatched. This high end all mountain Directional Twin really is designed to do everything. From park jumps, to pow lines, to high speed groomers this board won't disappoint. The Algorythm will feel comfortable and familiar to snowboarders looking to up their game. Quadratic Sidecut improves turn initiation/exit and edge grip. A Performance™ Core combines Aspen, Bamboo, and Paulownia wood to provide the perfect balance of strong and light. Carbon Array 5™ provides extra pop without adding stiffness. This high-end all-mountain directional twin is far superior to some one-trick pony boards.
WORDS FROM RUSSELL WINFIELD
Through snowboarding I was blessed to build a friendship with the superpower Virgil Abloh. He and I share the same passion for snowboarding and growing the culture, I’m very excited to share this special project he and I put together before his passing.
RIDE Snowboards has given us an opportunity to create something special through the release of this limited edition Algorythm. This board is extremely limited and is sure to become a collector’s item. Proceeds from this board are being donated to two organizations whose mission align with Virgil and my vision. $5 per board is going to Hoods To Woods, a mentoring nonprofit in Brooklyn introducing teens to the outdoors through snowboarding, and an additional $5 going to Virgil’s Postmodern Scholarship Fund.

DIRECTIONAL HYBRID CAMBER:
A directional shape with a hybrid profile that has more camber than rocker.
QUADRATIC SIDECUT:
Blending of three radii to improve turn initiation/exit while providing the best grip possible. This design is uniquely formulated for each model based on its shape and riding style.
SINTERED 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.
CARBON SLIMEWALLS®:
This totally unique sidewall combines layers of Slimewalls® material and carbon strategically placed at the inserts out to the contact points in the tip and tail on a twin, and the back inserts to the contact points in the tail on a directional board. This exclusive tech enhances the charging rider’s experience as we have moved the carbon pop construction to the outside edge for better stability and enhanced response.
ROLL-IN CONSTRUCTION:
Unique 3D structure built around our urethane Slimewall® sidewalls. Designed to increase overall board strength, prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.
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.
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.
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.
STANDARD TOP SHEET:
Durable Urethane topsheet material with graphics only RIDE can bring you.
