Under the bonnet the ‘Ride the Lightning’ has one of the most impressive specs on the market. With a sintered 4001 Galleria Base, multilayer damping, Triaxial glass, Canadian Aspen & Suma wood core and Carbon X reinforcement, you can be sure there aren’t many people on the mountain with a ride as fly as yours… and with each board handmade by owner Jason in his one man factory you can be sure no one on the hill will be riding a board as exclusive! A lightweight ride designed for flying 15’ out of the pipe, spinning 10s off the biggest park and backcountry booters and laying the law down on technical rails. Interested? Then get yourself down to the Clyde Calgary showroom and book a test drive.

Manufacturer's Description:

Designed for park laps and all mountain riding, this board has a soft enough flex for rails, but enough pop for huge booters.  With a focus on lightweight performance, this is the board that can do it all with ease.  If you don’t believe us, ask Craig Beaulieu who won the Grenade Games Finale on this board.

I rode this board last spring in softpack conditions with some icy sections.  It holds an amazing edge and had tons of pop for park riding.  Actually, it was perfect at everything I could throw its way.  The only downside was that my demo was a bit short for me so I wasn’t used to that.  It’s so cool to support a brand that is as core as it gets.  Small, independent, Clyde.
