"Not to be a bummer, but this ain't ultralight. I hate looking at ad copy from a manufacturer, where everything references how light a product is, but they never get around to telling you what it actually weighs. Just an average will do, but we can't even get that. Anyway, I ordered the 161 as soon a …"  Read Full Review »

"From having had the 2003 Ride Concept 162 and having moved to the '06 T6 162, I had my doubts on this new Concept UL 161 impressing me. I must say I was uberly surprised. This deck is clearly all it is hyped to be and more. First of all I'll admit I don't spend much time in the park, so I cannot …"  Read Full Review »

"Ride upped the ante with this board... I used to ride the 2007 Prophet and then this shows up... looks like I'll be riding this one for awhile! With its Carbon Stringer Array. 90A Slimewalls and ultra light top sheet that looks like 3D camouflage... there's enough technology to be a head of its time …"  Read Full Review »

"KingsX,



Better not try to buy a mountain bike if you think it's weird to pay a lot more for less weight.

Ride UL = 6lb 5oz = 101oz



So 100% x 101/110.4 = 91.5% -- …"  Read Full Review »

Perfect Solution

★★★★★

"I was looking for a high performance Freeride board with a slim waist, as I have a 7.5 foot. After a ton of research it came down to the Burton Supermodel, Nitro Pantera, and the Ride Concept UL.
