Hi my name is Brandi and I just got done riding the Ride Compact. It's a great intermediate entry level board. It's not very good at high speeds, It's a little bit chattery. It's completely flat on the bottom, it's got a little bit of rocker at the tip and the tail but flat in between the bindings. It's also got the Urethane sidewalls as well to help dampen some of the chatter on it. All and all I would rate this a 3 out of 5!

My name is Emily. I just got done riding the Ride Compact. I thought it was a really nice board. I thought it would be pretty nice for all levels of snowboarding ability. For someone that is just learning how to ride, it's definitely something they can advance with and have it for a long time and get lots of use out of it. Also I like that it was very responsive, it still had a lot of pop to it but at the same time, really held a clean edge and held up at good speeds. Overall I would give this a 5 out of 5 and I have nothing bad to say about this board at all.

Hey this is Kim. I just got off of the Ride Compact. I was really surprised by this board, I'm going to give it a 4/5 stars. This would be really good for pretty much anyone out there on the mountain. It was really forgiving, it held an edge really good at a pretty decent high speeds. It's got the lowrise rocker to it so it's pretty catch free. Pretty much anyone out there is going to have a really good time on this board. I think it would be great in the park too because it's definitely got some pop to it, definitely a good board for anyone out there 4/5 stars.

Hi I'm Jenna, this is the Ride Compact. I give this board a 3 out 5 stars. It's a great board for your maybe beginner to intermediate level rider who is just looking for a board they can take all over hill. Real easy to ride, maybe take a little bit into the park. This would be a great jib board, super, super soft, super flexible. It has Ride's Low Rise on it so just a little bit of rocker in the tip and the tail and then flat between the bindings so real stable if you are hitting rails or boxes but just not really the best at higher speeds. It gets a little bit of chatter because it is a softer board so not really for your girl who's looking for something to really carve hard with or go real fast with but again just super playful and fun for somebody who is looking to either find an entry level to mid level board that is real easy to ride or something to do some jibbing on.

I got a chance to ride this at a demo at the end of last season and it is awesome. First of all the graphic is one of the best I've seen on a womens board. It's hard to see from the image, but there's tons of depth to it and it looks like its a $500 board. As for the way it rides though, what a fun little board. It's pretty soft and forgiving but has plenty of pop. Great for a beginner looking for something easy to ride and wants quality.
