Ride Berzerker Snowboard 2024
Why does Whiteroom Snow stock the Ride Berzerker ’24?
The Berzerker is a great option for someone who likes to rip all over the mountain, less in the park and more off piste. Its directional shape means it’s going to ride mostly one waybut can definitely be taken switch. Directional boards ride better in pow and are a little easier to turn due to the nose being slightly bigger in length and width. This one has also got an aggressive hybrid camber (camber + rocker at either end) it’ll hold well at high speeds, but you can smash through pow and slush with ease. If you like sending it on natural features, smashing pow and groomers this is one fun board!!
“I was trying to find a board that would rail like a pipe boards I was used to on hardpack and ice, yet float in powder. It was really difficult finding a board like that. Luckily I was able to team up with RIDE and Michael Chilton, the head engineer at RIDE, and help develop the Berzerker.” – Jake Blauvelt
Tech Talk:
DIRECTIONAL EXTRA 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.
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 CONSTRUCTION:
Unique 3D structure built around our urethane Slimewall® sidewalls. Designed to increase overall board strength, prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.
CARBON SLIMERODS®:
RIDE’s Slimerods® give already fun and playful boards the added liveliness to set them apart from other boards. Using strategic placement in the boards tip and/or tail, this technology adds pop without the stiffness generally associated with snappy boards. Made up of flat carbon rods that wrap a urethane slime-core, Slimerods® have carbon for massive pop and a slime-core to smooth out the landing. Available in 2 levels: Slimerods® 1.0 & 2.0.
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.
HYBRID GLASS:
Triaxial on top, biaxial on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed.
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.
TOPLESS CONSTRUCTION:
By transferring graphics directly to the fiberglass, Topless Construction removes the need to have any topsheet material. This process improves overall durability and reduces weight.
