It’s built for riders who want a directional board that still feels balanced and easy to control, blending freeride stability with a freestyle-friendly mindset. With a shape and flex aimed at intermediate riders looking to explore more of the mountain, the Vantum sits comfortably as a versatile daily driver that can handle everything from groomer laps to natural terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe tapered directional shape and camber profile give the Vantum a confident, responsive feel when carving while still maintaining a smooth and predictable ride. A slight rocker rise in the nose and tail helps keep the board forgiving and manoeuvrable, while the moderate flex makes it accessible for riders who are still progressing their technique. RIDE’s construction focuses on keeping the board stable and damp underfoot, with urethane sidewall materials and carbon reinforcement working together to reduce chatter and improve power transfer. New features like Zonal Carbon Rails and Urethane Channels further refine the ride feel, improving stability in rough snow while helping the board feel controlled and composed at speed.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWant the full picture?\u003c\/strong\u003e Our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.ballistyx.com.au\/pages\/how-to-choose-a-snowboard\" title=\"How to Choose a Snowboard: A Comprehensive, No-Nonsense Buyers Guide\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003eSnowboard Buying Guide\u003c\/a\u003e cuts through the noise and helps you choose the right board—no fluff, just facts.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTerrain – All Mountain\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA versatile directional board designed for riders who want one snowboard that can comfortably handle everyday resort terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShape – Tapered Directional\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tapered directional shape improves float and stability when riding forward while maintaining smooth turn initiation.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProfile – Hybrid Positive\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCamber between the feet provides energy and edge hold while early rise in the nose and tail helps keep the ride forgiving and manoeuvrable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFlex – Mid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA moderate flex gives the board a balanced personality that stays supportive without becoming overly demanding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: center;\"\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1007\/8102\/files\/Ride_Vantum.webp?v=1774489441\" alt=\"\" style=\"float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eTech Features\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDirectional Standard Camber\u003c\/strong\u003e – Camber between the feet provides snap and edge hold while subtle rocker in the nose and tail improves forgiveness and float.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLinear Quadratic Sidecut\u003c\/strong\u003e – A blended multi-radius sidecut that improves turn initiation and exit while maintaining strong grip throughout the carve.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSintered, Stone Ground Base\u003c\/strong\u003e – A durable sintered base finished with a stone grind for increased glide and speed across changing snow conditions.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBio-Resin\u003c\/strong\u003e – A plant-based epoxy that reduces environmental impact while maintaining strong bonding performance in the board’s construction.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePerformance™ Core\u003c\/strong\u003e – A balanced wood core combining Aspen, Bamboo and lightweight Paulownia to create a strong yet responsive platform.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eZonal Carbon Rails\u003c\/strong\u003e – Carbon strips placed along the edges from the insert pack toward the contact points to improve power transfer and edge response.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSlimewalls®\u003c\/strong\u003e – Urethane sidewalls designed to absorb vibration and impacts, creating a smoother and more damp ride.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSingle Impact Plates\u003c\/strong\u003e – Reinforced zones beneath the bindings improve compressive strength and durability in high-stress areas.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUrethane Channels\u003c\/strong\u003e – Urethane-filled channels in the nose reduce vibration and help the board remain stable in choppy snow.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHybrid Glass\u003c\/strong\u003e – A triaxial top layer combined with biaxial fiberglass underneath for balanced torsional flex and stability.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRoll-In Construction\u003c\/strong\u003e – A structural build method that integrates the topsheet into the sidewall to improve durability and reduce weight.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/o154FZE91AU?si=w6dYdfWZa2HUgsUB\" height=\"315\" width=\"560\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSize Chart\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cstyle\u003e\n.bx-sizechart{\nwidth:100%;\nborder-collapse:separate;\nborder-spacing:0;\nborder:1px solid #ddd;\nborder-radius:20px;\noverflow:hidden;\nfont-family:Arial, sans-serif;\n}\n.bx-sizechart th,\n.bx-sizechart td{\nborder:1px solid #ddd;\npadding:12px;\ntext-align:center;\n}\n.bx-sizechart thead th{\nbackground:#111;\ncolor:#fff;\n}\n.bx-sizechart tbody tr:nth-child(even){\nbackground:#f9f9f9;\n}\n@media (max-width:600px){\n.bx-sizechart th,\n.bx-sizechart td{\npadding:8px;\n}\n}\n\u003c\/style\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"max-width: 800px;
