Ride Releases Limited DH2.6 with art by Mike Aho
The Dapper Otter section had some mold on it so it’s nice to actually try to shake things up every now and then. I will do my best to make sure that no further dust falls on this section. Promise, especially when there’s particularly interesting news from the folks at Ride Snowboards. Yesterday, Ride Snowboards revealed a new collaboration with Austin artist, Mike Aho whose artwork is featured on the limited edition DH2.6 snowboard. Mike’s nostalgic creations provide a suiting façade for Ride’s style and represent the sixth of seven limited edition DH2 boards that have been introduced over the past three seasons.
The DH 2.6 snowboard will hit select stores on October 1, though availability is limited and they don’t last long! Find your local authorized retailer or go online to get yours today.
