A performance-focused park board for demanding riders
The Benchwarmer is an aggressive board for advanced riders looking for maximum performance in the park. The asymmetric shape improves turn initiation and control on the heel edge. The aggressive camber profile ensures precise and crisp handling. A reliable board for the pro line in the park, with maximum stability for big jumps and high-speed turns on hard snow.
Riding style
A park board for advanced riders. This board is perfect for freestyle riding in the park and all over the mountain. The Asymmetrical Twin profile makes the board agile and reactive. Perfect for bigger kickers and hard slopes.
Shape
The Ride Benchwarmer comes with an Asymmetrical Twin Shape and thus rides switch, exactly the same as forward, but the pressure build-up at the heel edge is easier due to this shape.
Profile
The Twin Extra Camber profile combines a classic camber between the bindings with a slight rocker in tip and tail. This creates a playful and forgiving riding experience while maintaining the pop and precision of the camber.
Flex
The stiff flex makes this board reactive, agile and ensures the best edge hold in every situation. Pop and control are guaranteed.
Construction
The Performance™ Core is made of aspen wood, bamboo and paulownia, for a perfect balance of weight and stability. Carbon Slim Walls® technology is a full 3D composite structure over Slimewall® Sidewalls. The result is more efficient energy transfer, a lighter construction and better damping. Double Impact Plates are added underneath each binding face to improve compressive strength and prevent the board from breaking. In addition, Carbon Array 3™ stringers provide maximum board control.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
