The Ride Warpig is ready for battle straight out of the wrapper. Quickly becoming a fan-favourite, this board is an all-mountain beast that allows any well-rounded, intermediate rider to enjoy every inch of the mountain.

The short, fatter shape and rocker profile will keep you floating through the fluffiest of blower pow, while the directional taper through a slightly stiffer tail allow you extra manoeuvrability. And when the snow firms up, this beast will be just as comfortable digging trenches on the piste or gunning through the park.

“If you’re limited to just one deck then the Warpig is a safe bet for a fun trip”

Who Is The Ride Warpig For?

Ideal for any intermediate or above rider who likes to explore the entire mountain, this board will feel just as comfortable taking on steep faces and tight tree lines as it will on the piste and park.

If you’re limited to just one deck then the Warpig is a safe bet for a fun trip.

Shape, Profile and Sidecut

The tapered directional shape keeps the Warpig afloat and makes riding powder an absolute breeze by allowing your tail to sink and cut through the snow while the wider, rockered nose rises up like the bow of a ship. But fear not! There’s still plenty of tail for you to land and ride switch when you need to!

Want some butter on your bacon sarnie? The Warpigs medium flex opens up more opportunities for pressing than you might expect, particularly in that large and slightly softer nose. couple this with the carbon stringers that run underfoot and you’ve got a popping, playful board that keeps the fun times rolling when the powder firms up and you head to the park.

The flat midsection between the rockered nose & tail helps to keep the board stable when you’re cruising a piste or in-between hits. This stability is further accented by the bi-radial sidecuts which allow smooth turn initiation that you can crank to the max thanks to the boards wider shape underfoot. You can get as low as you dare when carving, you’re more likely to drag your snout than your trotter here.

“The best thing about this board is the way the tech stacks up to quickly tackle anything you put in front of it”

Construction and Materials

Built for speed the stone ground, sintered base will keep your stick slick and your speed quick while the performance core helps to reduce weight and add pop thanks it’s blend of Bamboo, Aspen and Paulownia woods.

The Warpig also features brand new SlimWall technology which improves upon their patented SlimeWalls to make the sidewalls lighter, helps to spread the energy that you put into the board more efficiently and also helps to dampen things up to remove unwanted chatter. The best sidewalls in the business just got better…

“If you’re heading into battle you want to make sure you’re ready for any eventuality, and this is the quiver killer you’ll want to take with you”

Roundup

Quickly becoming an “old faithful” this wee beasty is the go to board for any rider who wants to maximise their fun and minimise their time spent swapping decks when the conditions change.

The best thing about this board is the way the tech stacks up to quickly tackle anything you put in front of it. Whether it’s steep and deep or tight thick in the trees, the Warpigs tapered directional shape maximises your float and manoeuvrability.
Carving your way to the park cause every where’s been tracked out? That extra width and Cleave-Edge will have you laying trenches and when you get to the park you’ll find that the shortened nose and tail reduces swing to make any spins a breeze.

If you’re heading into battle you want to make sure you’re ready for any eventuality, and this is the quiver killer you’ll want to take with you.
