Ride Algorythm vs Ride Psychocandy

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Ride Algorythm leans more freestyle. The Ride Algorythm uses a directional twin shape while the Ride Psychocandy is directional. The Ride Algorythm has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the Ride Psychocandy uses flat_rocker (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel). Both are rated 5/10 flex (medium). At $539.95 vs $629.95 MSRP, the Ride Psychocandy is the more budget-friendly option.
