Ride Compact vs Ride Moderator

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Ride Moderator leans more powder. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature camber profiles — arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise. The Ride Moderator is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Ride Compact targets intermediate riders while the Ride Moderator is aimed at advanced riders.
