The Berzerker is designed by one of the world’s smoothest snowboarders, Jake Blauvelt. Jake wanted a board that matched his smooth and effortless style in all terrain and conditions. You'll be impressed at how smooth the transition between turns is because of the tip rocker and a small amount of taper in the tail that improves edge-to-edge speed and float in powder. The Tapered Quadratic Sidecut has been enhanced to improve stability and edge hold. Carbon Slimerods® 2.0 have carbon for pop and a urethane core to smooth out the landings. The Berzerker is built for an all-mountain rider looking for performance. Like a Viking longship, the Berzerker is designed to sail in the shallows or plow through the deep, cut through ice, and take you to snowboard Valhalla. Pay attention to the waist width, because the standard sizes run a bit narrow and are optimized for a smaller boot. The wide sizes are more mid-wide, providing a good option for the size 11, 12 or 13 boots out there. If you've got a bigger foot or prefer a wider ride, check out the Algorythm or Deep Fake. AbilityIntermediate, Advanced ResponseAggressive SpecialtyAll Mountain, Powder Extra Camber Profile:More camber! Directional Shape: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. 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. 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. Double 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. Carbon Array™ 3 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. Carbon Slimerods® Laminates: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. Hybrid Glass Fiberglass:Triaxial on top, biaxial on base; balanced torsional flex and stiffness for better response with speed. Sintered 4000 Base:High-end sintered 4000 Ptex base material that is more durable, harder and faster than extruded. Stone Ground Base:The absolute best way to finish building a snowboard. Nice and flat base, no weird bumps or extra material. Stone ground is the way to go, ask your local tune shop. Performance™ Core:High strength Aspen is combined with Bamboo and lightweight Paulownia wood to provide the perfect balance of strong and light. Standard Top Sheet Edges:Durable Urethane topsheet material with graphics only RIDE can bring you. Bio Resin:Our plant based Bio Resin is one of the biggest impacts for sustainability. By using a Bio based resin instead of a traditional epoxy to assemble boards, we’re able to drastically reduce our carbon emissions while using less toxic chemicals. Win-win for everyone. Wend® Meadowfoam Biodegradable Wax:The Meadowfoam® factory wax we use is made from wildflower seeds native to California and Oregon. All WEND® Meadowfoam® snow wax blends are non-toxic and completely biodegradable 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.
