In this video we are taking a closer look at a new snowboard on Ride's lineup for 2018/2019, the Ride Twinpig. The Twinpig is an evolution of the Warpig which has been around for a couple of seasons now, and brings some of those unique characteristics into a true-twin frame. The most unique thing about this snowboard is that it is a volume shifted twin, that means that it is naturally much wider and can be ridden at smaller sizes. This is going to allow you to carve more aggressively while avoiding heel and toe drag, and is going to make this snowboard a natural choice for those of you with larger boot sizes. I am also a fan of the asymmetrical sidecut that you'll find on this guy. This snowboard works really well as a freestyle friendly, do-it-all style snowboard, and it also comes in at a very reasonable price. Let me know what you think about the Twinpig down in the comments, thanks for watching.

Oh my goodness I think that's the best thumbnail I've ever seen
love the review. just rode it today here are my takes: 1) stiffer than I thought; 2) the width didn't impact turning but adds to stability. not the easiest to do butters etc.
Love this board! I've had it in the tree's, park, deep powder and it seriously slays it all. I love this board!!!
Awesome review. I think this board can give lots of fun in deep powder runs, cliffs, rocks, forests, with a nice floating stability. Also, I love that shape. That radius side cut is fucking savage.
My twinpig arrived 1 day ago. Stickers are already on. 3 day till my resort opens. Stoked to try it out :)
Love this board so much… ❤ I m 170 cm, 74 kg, 40 boots.. I was struggled in turning with my past boards maybe because of my knee surgery…. Browsing for shorter board, around 140 cm, but no one recomended me for shorter board, until one sales recomended me twinpig 142 cm 2024, he said it was as good as 150 cm board. It was correct.. easy to manuver, even in powder snow and black track…👍
Sweet riding per usu and nice to see you do it live! This thing looks so promising!

Love your reviews man, pretty sure you’ve convinced me to buy most of my boards lol. Looking for a twin pow board, you think this fits the bill? My current quiver is a bunch of twins right now, wondering if this overlaps too much with any of them (funslinger, the greats, DOA, scott stevens, process kilroy).
Hi TJ thanks for the review! Also, will you be reviewing the 2019 version of the indoor survival?

Great review! I'll stick to my Warpig, and Greats uninc! Nice board, though!
Hi TJ, thanks for all the reviews! How would you compare the 2020 Ride Twinpig and the Jones Mountain Twin? Pretty sure you've ridden both. Just looking for reasons to go with one or the other? Looking for something that carves great, is decent to butter, has some pop, and needs to be adequate in the POW. I don't ride a ton of Park, but do hit smaller jumps and the occasional rail. Thanks!
Thank you for the review! Do you reccomend any detuning on this one?
Great review....would you say you can go down in stance width also? Thinking the width could allow me to go smaller stance and I’d still be as stable as thinner board with a wider stance.
1 year after having this board, I love it. It softens up A LOT after riding it for a while. As someone who is 6'1'' 170lbs I regret getting the 157cm, wish I went shorter so it would be easier to spin the board.

Agree. The first days riding it, i was almost disappointed that it's too stiff but after a few weeks it feels really mellow and fun. I think it's a perfect board if you like park, but want something that's gonna be fit for any terrain.

I see the test was done in sumercamp. Have you tried the twinpig 151 in powder? Is it a real "do it all" board? It will help me for my choice. Your Channel is very interesting.
Sick review as always man 👍. This board is really intriguing to me...you think it could replace the DOA in the quiver? I love the simple graphic on it too...Bloody Dracula for the win!

@VWRabbit2008 , so what do you have in result? Kwon is much better?
I wear a size 11 boot should I think about getting a wide in this board or could I stick with the regular width? I like euro carving quite a bit when I'm not in the park.
ordered it 5mins ago thanks :)
Do you think this board would handle powder well? Now wanting it to be powder specific but looking for a twin board that can hit the park and do good in any condition. I have a Salomon villain that I love but it sucks in powder conditions.
You should do a review on the bataleon disaster board!
I'm 5'8", fairly experienced rider. I've heard i could potentially get a shorter board because of the width, but what length would you recommend?
Can't decide between this and the Slash Happy place... wish they both had more camber and they would be perfect. Both flex the same, but I think the TwinPig has more camber. Also the TwinPig is a little wider (I need wide for my size 13 feet). But the Happy Place has carbon, and extra contact point, and a larger sidecut for carving...
should I go for the K2 afterblack or the ride twinpig? I jib thru the park most of my time. Nothing to crazy tho. Sometimes pow but not all too often.
Hey man I'm about to be getting this board. Really looking for a board that's going to be good for presses and butters let me know what you think about it for doing things like that it would help tremendously
You should check out the Kilroy twin 2020 got it for all mountain/park but kinda thinking about the twin pig what do you think?
Sweet review 🤙
Hey man! Thanks for all the helpful info! That being said, I’m 225lb and 6’3. Which do you think would be a better for me on the twin pig, the 157 or the 156w?

I nearly bought a 154. Im 185 6 foot size 11. The guy in the shop said 154 was my perfect size. I would say 156 or 57 are perfect for you just buy based on your boot size. I didnt end up getting one. I owned a 57w t rice and these just seemed too soft for me and look at that nose chatter.
Do you think this would float well in powder due to it's width?
Do you have your bindings setup at reference point which is 21inches ?
What size bindings are those that you have on the board?
hey TJ, I'm 5'8 and 160lbs what size is right for me? SnowboardProCamp
Always great edits and transitions TJ, but man please review the new 2019 DOA. I doubt its any different, but I wanna know your impression. Thinking of getting a board like that that isn't so stiff like my Jibsaw HD.

I don't have experience with the twin but I own and love the warpig. Based on this review and how he compared this to the warpig I think the deciding factor between the two would be how much do you actually ride switch and park. The warpig rides switch fine, albiet it takes a minute to get used to it because of the taper. Check last years Brandon Davis footage if you don't believe me. The warpig is a solid medium flex but not too stiff to butter. Him saying the twin is a bit softer would give me pause if I was buying as an all mountian board. The other question I'd ask yourself is how aggressive you actually ride. I find the warpig has made me more aggressive. The shorter tail usually isnt a problem until I start getting lazy and sitting back too much. Similarly the flat camber has a bit of that rocker swivel while flat basing it. I was used to camber before this so I had to get used to staying on my game a bit more when high speed and flat. The twin would probably alleviate these "problems" but I'm pretty happy with the board pushing my riding. I've had zero issues in the park with but obviously the twin is better suited. Seems like he isn't singing it's all mountain praises as much as last years warpig review though.
@BoardArchive

I think they both work well as a daily drive, you could go either way. The Warpig is fun in the park too but will be more versatile for powder and better for carving. The twinpig takes a backseat for powder and carving (although it will still be solid) but will be way more fun for freestyle stuff

As someone with a wider stance, is the stance range really only 22" ?
Should I get the Twinpig in 154, 156W or 157? > I am 195cm high (6‘4), weight around 77kg (170 lbs) and my feet are 45 (11 US). I would mainly use it for All-Mountain

Is the twin pig will preform well in powder like the war pig ?
hi what size would you recommend for someone weight 180 and is 6'1 ?
I have boots size 12 (mono 30), but am a light guyt (70kg/154 lb). You think I could ride the 151 Twinpig without toedrag? Waist width is 263mm. I currently ride a Ride Machete 159W (ww 261mm) without any problems, so I guess I should be fine?
how do you think this would do on harder to icy snow? As in edge hold
Please do a de-tune tutorial on new boards!
Which binding model is the best for this board?
I'm will get this board, can you help me choose the size? I'm 6'1'', 165 lbs, 11 foot size. Thanks!!
Box knife, super doa, huck knife pro or twin pig? 🤔😭
Ciao Man! i'm thinking to buy a new board and i was looking the twinpig, i'm not a professional, i'm a "simple" rider and so far i enjoyed the mountain with a volkl hybrid 156w but i heard here and also somewhere else that with twinpig you can downsize.. i'm 186cm tall and 85 kg; any recomandation? Thanks a lot and cheers!
Hi, I’m seriously interested in buying this board, but after reading a forum post, I’m kinda concerned. A few people mentioned that the topsheet chips really easily. This would be my main board, and I don’t want to spend $500 (Canadian) on a board with an issue like that. Does anyone have any experience with this board who could tell me if this is a serious concern?
can you please review the devils twin 2018

I found out about the Twin Pig last year and saw some for sale on Australian websites but they would say sintered base. I wrote an email to Ride to get clarification as their catalog said extruded and this is what the global brand manager replied: "Yes there is a twin pig, it was intended to have a high end extruded base due to cost (which if waxed and maintained properly is pretty much indistinguishable performance wise from sintered base). But we messed up at our factory and put a sintered base on it. All the stickers, and website catalogs ect will say extruded. (because we print those long before we make the boards). So the good news is, we aren’t going to raise the price for next year and we are going to leave the sintered base on it (going forward in 2020) we will most likely keep it sintered and raise the price to match the technology. The bad news is, everything is going to say it is extruded because it’s too much stuff to try and fix at the moment." That's good news for us if you are interested in one 😉
