Ride 2027 Kink Snowboard
The Ride Kink is a street machine. Designed with a focus on predictability and durability for urban and park riding, the KINK is at home on handrails and jibs. The Ride Kink is the board of choice for Jed Anderson and many team riders when riding in the street. Jed provided the graphics on this year's Kink, giving it a unique, poppy look on the topsheet and base for a little personality underfoot from one of the greatest of all time. Twin Hybrid Camber has camber underfoot for pop and smooth turn initiation with a minimal amount of rocker at the tip for predictable catch-free performance. A Quadratic Sidecut provides predictability and edge hold. Slimewalls® and Cleave Edge™ provide a smoother ride and increased durability. The sintered base is harder and more durable. The Kink is a board designed for modern freestyle and street performance.
Construction Features:
Profile: Twin Extra Camber (Camber between the feet for loadable snap and landing stability, mixed with a tiny touch of early rise rocker at the contact points for a catch free feel)
Shape: True Twin
Edges: Cleave Edge Steel (Nearly 50 percent more steel than a standard edge, providing unrivaled resistance to cracking and rail impacts)
Sidewalls: Slim Walls (Full urethane formulation designed to damp high speed vibration and absorb massive impacts without chipping)
Sidecut: Quadratic Sidecut (A blend of three distinct radii to ensure highly predictable turn initiation and reliable edge tracking)
Core: Foundation Core (A tip to tail Aspen wood core engineered for a highly reliable, forgiving flex pattern and durable construction)
Reinforcements: Double Impact Plates (Reinforced placements underneath the binding mounts to bolster compression strength and prevent core breaks)
Fiberglass Layout: Biaxial Glass (Glass fibers intersecting at 90 degree angles for a soft, loose torsional twist that makes maneuvering park features effortless)
Base: Extruded Base (A low maintenance, incredibly tough base material that is super easy to repair after taking street or rail damage)
