📌 Overview
The RIDE Twinpig is a freestyle-focused, volume-shifted twin designed for riders who want a playful, stable, and progressive board that thrives in the park and across the whole mountain.

🧠 Volume-Shifted Twin + Hybrid Rocker
The Twinpig is designed to be ridden 4–6 cm shorter than your standard board, thanks to its wider waist and stable platform. The Twin Hybrid Rocker camber provides stability and pop between the feet, while the tip and tail rocker offer forgiveness and float. It’s a rare blend of freestyle freedom and all-mountain power.
