2026 Ride Shadowban Snowboard with Ride C-2 Bindings
The 2026 Ride Shadowban with Ride C-2 Bindings is a true all-mountain directional twin that brings cambered precision and freestyle energy into one well-rounded ride. Designed to handle everything from park laps to choppy afternoon chop, this board blends a responsive flex with carbon reinforcements to deliver control, pop, and smoothness across the hill. We paired the Shadowban with the C-2 bindings because these well-rounded all-mountain bindings perform well in most conditions or terrain. A moderate flex makes them stiff enough to charge on groomers but not too demanding that you can’t take them in the park. Built with durable material to last season after season making them a great choice to pair with the Shadowban.
Why we like it:
It’s the kind of board that does it all without needing to shout about it. The Shadowban holds an edge like a boss, feels balanced in the air, and stays predictable when things get rough. Whether you’re laying carves or locking into a press, this board keeps it dialed.
Who it's for:
Ideal for intermediate to expert riders who want a directional twin that supports switch riding while still giving some added power when moving forward. Perfect for those who value pop and precision without giving up a forgiving and versatile platform.
Highlights:
With traditional camber underfoot, the Shadowban delivers reliable snap and edge hold. The Quadratic Sidecut smooths out turn initiation and boosts power through the exit. Ride’s Performance™ Core brings a damp and durable feel, reinforced by Carbon Array 3™ and impact plates for added strength on landings and variable snow. Slimwalls® and pre-cured glass enhance energy transfer without harshness, keeping it stable and snappy at speed. The composite chassis provides durability without excessive weight, while Ride’s cored ankle straps hug the boot securely without pinching. The footbed is canted to reduce fatigue and promote better stance alignment.
Things to consider:
Because of its camber and carbon construction, the Shadowban thrives with riders who stay active and engaged. If you’re after a more laid-back, surfy feel or something ultra-forgiving, this might be a bit much.
Fit & sizing considerations:
Rides true to size. Stick with your regular length for a well-balanced all-mountain ride, or size up slightly if you're chasing added float or edge hold.
