Made to inspire riding confidence in beginning female riders, the Burton Sterling snowboard features an ultralight and predictable Fly wood core wrapped in bi-directional Biax fiberglass layers so it's even easy for the lightest riders to make their first heel- and toe-side turns.

Ride Snowboards Control Snowboard
Moving up from the realm of recreational snowboards to performance-oriented freeriding snowboards used to cost a chunk of change. Ride's Control snowboard gives you advanced freeride features with a smooth, 45-Degree Thin Construction Sidewall that smoothes out some of the bumps aggressive intermediates and new advanced riders encounter along the learning curve. Ride tapered the core and added a deeper 45-degree sidewall to complement aggressive riding styles. Many recreational snowboards opt for 90-degree sidewalls for a stable and forgiving arc-following design. The 45-degree sidewall on the Control snowboard offers better edge hold--especially on hardpack--and quickly transitions for edge-to-edge performance. The 45-Degree Thin Construction Sidewall also tapers along the Control's tip and tail for a lower swing weight that makes it easier to quickly rotate while airborne. Ride keeps the Control affordable and predictable with their Progressive Core, one of four Tuned Cores&153; used by Ride. Progression Cores give Ride snowboards a lively flex with plenty of strength and durability to take hard hits. The core is wrapped in a Biaxial fiberglass construction along the top and bottom that features stitching at 90-degree angles for lightweight durability. Unlike other snowboard companies that use woven fiberglass, the stitched fiberglass construction on Ride snowboards are flatter and more consistent for durability that surpasses conventional snowboard designs. Along the base you'll find Ride's 1500 grade extruded fusion base, a faster base that's 25% harder than the 1000 grade extruded bases found on recreational snowboards. 1500 Grade Base easily absorbs wax and facilitates repairs and performance tuning. If you're looking for a snowboard that takes you several rungs up the performance ladder without dragging you deep into debt, Ride's Control Snowboard could be your freeride pick of the season. If you like the Control concept but you need a wider snowboard design, take a moment or two to check out Ride's Fleetwood.

Ride Snowboards Women's Solace Snowboard
Made with a soft flex that makes turning easier than guy's boards, Ride's Solace gives women the right shape, length and consistency for cutting their own turns in the park and on the runs. The Solace has Ride's 45-Degree Thin Construction Sidewall that smoothes out some of the bumps aggressive intermediates and new advanced riders encounter along the learning curve. Ride tapered the core and added a deeper 45-degree sidewall to complement aggressive riding styles. Many unisex recreational snowboards opt for 90-degree sidewalls for a stable and forgiving arc-following design. The 45-degree sidewall on the Solace snowboard offers better edge hold--especially on hardpack--and quickly transitions for edge-to-edge performance. The 45-Degree Thin Construction Sidewall also tapers along the Solace's tip and tail for a lower swing weight that makes it easier to quickly rotate while airborne. Ride keeps the Solace affordable and predictable with their Progression Core, one of four Tuned Cores&153; used by Ride.

If you're frustrated by snowboards that seem to be in your size but end up being too stiff, Ride's Solace has the easy flex built to fit the female physique.

Ride Snowboards Prophet Snowboard
Different by design, the Ride Prophet snowboard offers exceptional durability in a lightweight and highly versatile platform that will please the most discerning expert. The Prophet features a quadratic sidecut that's actually three distinct radii blended together on the board. As you start your turn the wide-arc tip radius kicks in for a smooth initiation, but as you roll your weight onto the center radius you'll find that the arc tightens until you rock back onto the tail where the arc widens into a clean and powerful exit. Like most of Ride's advanced freestyle and freeride boards, the Prophet snowboard features a smooth, 45-Degree Thin Construction Sidewall to smooth out the rough edges in the terrain park. Ride tapered the core and added a deeper 45-degree sidewall to complement aggressive riding styles. Some freestyle boards beef up the durability with a burly 90-degree sidewall that you find on recreational boards, but the 45-degree sidewall on the Prophet snowboard offers better edge hold--especially on packed terrain--and quickly transitions for edge-to-edge performance. The 45-Degree Thin Construction Sidewall also tapers along the Prophet 's tip and tail for a lower swing weight that makes it easier to rotate while popping above the pipe. In the middle of it all is the Aggression Core--the most advanced and liveliest wood core available on any Ride snowboard. Carbon sandwiched between the two dampening layers helps minimize unsettling vibrations while enhancing the overall responsive power. Carbonex and aramid reinforcements along the Aggression Core help optimize torsion and strength without compromising the lightweight design. Ride wrapped the wood core with a hybrid laminate that combines biaxial fiberglass on top of the snowboard with biaxial fiberglass along the base to give the board an ideal balance of torsional and longitudinal stiffness that's unsurpassed by any other snowboard in the Ride arsenal. Unlike other snowboard companies that use woven fiberglass, the stitched fiberglass construction on Ride snowboards are flatter and more consistent for durability that surpasses conventional snowboard designs. Beneath everything is Ride's best fusion base: The exclusive RGG (Rideglide with Gallium) is the fastest ready-to-ride base ever developed in the history of the company. Gallium crystals throughout the base help dissipate friction heat to maintain a higher speed while extending the time between major base tuning. Unlike snowboards that are easily classified into freeride or freestyle, the Prophet defies easy definition. It's a freeride board that goes anywhere but still does the freestyle park and pipe scene better than most all-mountain snowboards--but you might want to hold off on grinding. It seems like a waste to accidentally ruin this sort of groundbreaking perfection.

Salomon Prospect Snowboard
Optimized for freestyle in the pipe with just a hint of freeride potential, Salomon's Prospect is one of the best freestyle boards on the mountain. It's also around $100 less than the David Benedek DB pro model. This is a superb ride that doesn't cut corners on performance. Salomon touts the Prospect's full-length aspen wood core, but there's also some high density birch strips in there to enhance the insert retention and overall durability. Beneath is all is the proven P-Tex 2000 base, sintered with gallium for reduced friction, increased wax retention and a price tag that won't force you into selling out to corporate sponsorship.
