{"product_id":"ride-psychocandy-snowboard-2027","title":"2027 RIDE Psychocandy Snowboard","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe 2027 RIDE Psychocandy builds on the volume-shifted concept that made the Warpig so popular, but with a slightly more refined and responsive construction. Originally developed as the women’s counterpart to the Warpig, the Psychocandy now sits in the lineup as a unisex directional board that keeps the same short, wide and easy-riding philosophy while adding a bit more backbone under the hood. It’s aimed at riders who like the playful feel of volume-shifted boards but want something that feels a touch more composed and capable when the pace picks up.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tapered directional shape and zero camber profile keep the ride feel smooth, forgiving and easy to control, while the extra width allows the board to be ridden several centimetres shorter than a traditional snowboard. That shorter length combined with the wider platform gives the Psychocandy a loose, manoeuvrable feel that works well in softer snow and tighter terrain. Under the hood, RIDE’s mix of carbon reinforcement, urethane sidewall technology and durable construction keeps the board feeling stable and damp when the snow gets rough, giving it enough backbone to stay composed while still keeping the overall ride personality relaxed and playful.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWant the full picture?\u003c\/strong\u003e

1990s, building a reputation around durable construction and boards designed to perform in real resort conditions. The brand has always focused on practical engineering, developing technologies like Slimewalls® and carbon reinforcement systems that prioritise strength, stability and longevity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThat design philosophy runs across the entire lineup. RIDE boards tend to combine progressive shaping with construction that feels solid and damp underfoot, creating boards that stay composed when the terrain gets rough while still feeling lively enough to keep riding fun.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Psychocandy fits squarely into that approach. It takes the volume-shifted concept popularised by the Warpig and pairs it with RIDE’s durable construction and damping-focused tech, creating a board that feels playful, capable and easy to ride for a wide range of resort conditions.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"RIDE","offers":[{"title":"146","offer_id":42958864613439,"sku":"SBPSYCHOCA-146","price":949.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"150","offer_id":42958864646207,"sku":"SBPSYCHOCA-150","price":949.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"154","offer_id":42958864678975,"sku":"SBPSYCHOCA-154","price":949.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/8102\/files\/PsychocandyNONPREORDERHero.webp?v=1782350513","url":"https:\/\/www.ballistyx.com.au\/products\/ride-psychocandy-snowboard-2027","provider":"Ballistyx","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
