The Ride A-4 is an excellent choice for riders who want a durable binding that doesn't break the bank. The lightweight high back design is one of the many ways that Ride has reduced the weight of this binding without compromising the ride quality. These bindings have a mellow response and a 4/10 feel, but don't let that fool you.... Read more

Originally posted at ridesnowboards.com on Mar 28, 2024For several years now, this A4 is the only binding I will mount up (have 2 sets). I love the responsiveness of the aluminum chassis and flexability of the high back. Straps are super comfy and hold my boot in well.

Originally posted at ridesnowboards.com on Jan 26, 2024These are responsive bindings that held my feet in place. Nothing bad to say. nothing crazy good to say. They do the job and do it well. Built sturdy and look like they can take a beating.

I was looking to purchase a new setup (snowboard, boots, bindings, and googles) for the upcoming season. Everything I have is very worn out. The last time I purchased a new setup was ten years ago, and I did not know where to start. So, I went through the "find your snowboard" quiz and was matched with Mike. From there we were able to really dial in my setup. I can't wait to try it out! Thank you Mike!

I'm getting back into snowboarding after a lonnngg hiatus and Leif knew exactly what I needed for both my skill level and the exact mountain I will be spending time at this winter. I had a pretty small budget considering the cost of gear and he found me a board and bindings way under budget. I was thrilled. I was also delighted that I got a personalized video describing my options. Highly recommended!

Ryan was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. I can in knowing nothing about snowboards and I gave him a weird task of trying to find a board that would work for both me and my brother at different weights. I appreciate how happy he was to help and how he kept checking in on me wanting to help.

I only started my search just recently and I felt Gregory gave me some great insight in selecting the best options for my needs. I can’t wait to hit the slopes this season with my new gear! This is my first time purchasing gear for myself and I feel this was best way I could have went about it. Thank you Gregory for the great recommendations and giving me exactly what I was looking for!

Jay is Awesome!
5 /5
Jay is very knowledgeable when it comes to snowboards. If you really want to dive into the differences between the materials, and engineering behind snowboards Jay is the guy to get into these conversations with. I’ve been riding for 25 plus years, and at this point in my life, I really appreciate Jay being there to just talk about the different nuances of snowboarding. I feel he was really able to understand the type of riding I like to do, and where i want to take my riding, and made excellent gear recommendations.

Josh helped me buy my second real snowboard. I was upgrading from a board I purchased on craigslist and rode for several seasons, and Josh was very patient and helpful talking through riding styles and making recommendations. After we narrowed it down to a few options, he even made a video talking through pros/cons of each of the boards - all around an incredibly helpful dude!

Casey is super knowledgeable and speaks from experience. She helped me make the be decision for my purchase and I couldn’t be more excited to head into the season with my new board. Her recommendations were all awesome and she helped me find the best set up that fit into my (small) budget. She was kind and a pleasure to work with.

5 /5
I was looking for a new snowboard. I knew I wanted to get something that excelled in powder but I wasn't sure which board to get. Taylor helped me narrow my selection down to a few options and I ultimately went with his top recommendation. It's really helpful to get a second opinion. Thanks for the help, Taylor!
