Ride Snowboards Dose Snowboard - FREE SHIPPING at Altrec.com
it is the Ride Dose 156cm.... i am 5'10 165 lbs it says it is wider? i have a 10 1/2 boot... is there no reason for me to get a board? i am looking to freeride the mountain hit some jumps ect.. and what how does a wider board effect your riding?

I have same stick but in a 162! It's an awesome board but since you wear a 10.5, I don't think you really need a mid wide board. Check out the Ride DH instead!

But if you want the Dose, buy it from this dude, Jayson Howard! He has a shop up in Central Washington and can probably get you any Ride board at a good price!
