Boston – The Ride Agenda 2010 Snowboard as you may have read from me before is a luxury ride at a bargain price.  This Ride is from their FreeStyle snowboard collection, set up with a twin tip shape and a centered stance.  Some will say that this is a simple board…. but don’t let the term fool you this board is not simple when it comes to taking on the mountain.

The 2010 Ride Agenda has the responsive ABS alloy sidewalls to provide a consistent feel no matter the terrain and the Foundation tip to tail wood core which also gives the board a feel of durability.  The agenda also brought back the Fusion 1500 base, which is easy to repair and will easily absorb the wax.
