The first thing I noticed about the Ride Machete GT is how stable it was at speed. This snowboard has some serious pace and is responsive edge-to-edge as well.

The Slimewall urethane sidewalls in the board drastically reduce chatter and reduce big impacts making the board great for nipping through uneven terrain and smooth at high speeds.

Plenty of pop and liveliness in the GT make it fun for playing in the park if you happen to venture there. Ride's hybrid Lowrize camber gives the GT a more aggressive feel and makes the board fun to ride in the powder as well.

The Machete GT isn't aimed at beginners, but it is perfect for riders looking for a more responsive and energetic all-mountain freestyle board to really progress on!
