The Ride Hellcat

The Ride Hellcat is one of my favorite boards from this years lineup, and we have it here, at SlopeStyle!  If you are an aggressive snowboarder chick, chances are, you'll feel the same way.  From Ride's All-Mountain Freestyle collection, the Hellcat is a board that can take you anywhere, whether you're trying to reach new heights in the park, or, like me, you simply like to go fast!  Due to the Membrain top sheet, which is urethane rather than the traditional plastic, the board is super light weight, making it easy to maneuver.  At the same time, there is carbon strategically positioned throughout the board torsionally stiffening it, for unrivaled pop and edge hold.  The Hellcat is the first women's board with Ride's PopWalls which are strings of carbon in the sidewall at the tip and the tale. When I rode this board last year it was a pretty hardpack/icy day, the PopWalls kept the board stable, and it had amazing edge hold.  I was easily keeping up up with the boys on this amazing snowboard!
