The Current is Blake Paul’s pro model, through and through. Built hand in hand with Blake this is a true all mountain machine. Wanting to get this board right, RIDE worked directly with Blake building over 40 prototypes and testing over 15 different camber profiles until Blake fine-tuned what is the all-new Current. The camber profile features RIDE’s new Multi-Cam shape blending maneuverability, ease of use, pop, and stability into one board. RIDE didn’t stop at camber profile though, the core of this is fully engineered to support the camber profile. With a medium amount of tortional flex between the feet the Current is easy to control while providing the stability you need on hill. The tip and tail are stiffer to pair with the camber sections, so you don’t tomahawk over the nose in pow or loop out off the tail on landings. The sidecut is a radial cut that’s set back on the board so the center of the sidecut matches the setback of the board. RIDE’s Slimewalls and linear carbon finish the Current off to be an all-mountain board that’s stable on the hardpack, floats in pow, and keeps you upright when the conditions try to buck you around.
Flex: Aggressive
Shape: Tapered Directional - Designed to be ridden in one direction. More nose than tail, set back stance, and a sidecut to match. Can you still ride it switch? Yeah, of course. Is it going to be as good riding switch all day long? Probably not.
Bend: Multi Camber - A mix of traditional and reverse camber. Multi Camber blends maneuverability, ease of use, pop, and stability into one board.
Sidecut: Radial - A sidecut featuring a single, continuous arc from tip to tail—delivering smooth, consistent turns and effortless edge control.
Core: Performance Light Core - Specially formulated for light weight performance, this core combines lightweight Paulownia wood stringers with high strength Aspen.
Linear Carbon 10 - 10 Strips of carbon running tip to tail, added below the core provide more snap for ollie power.
Fibreglass: Hybrid Glass - Triaxial on top, biaxial on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed.
Single Impact Plate - Added underneath each binding area to improve compressive strength and prevent board breaks where it matters most.
Carbon Array 5 - 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.
Base: Sintered 4000 - High-end sintered 4000 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder and faster than extruded.
EXTRAS
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.
30% Recycled Steel Edges - Everyone knows about recycling, but nobody thinks about it when it comes to snowboard edges. Hell, do people even think about their snowboard edges? Luckily for you we’re thinking of both. Edges on RIDE Snowboards contain 30% recycled materials. That means part of your snowboard could be made out of a car, an airplane, a building, who knows. Anything steel and recycled could turn into a snowboard edge.
Roll-In Construction - Unique 3D structure built around our urethane Slimewall sidewalls. Designed to increase overall board strength, prevent topsheet chipping, and reduce weight.
