24/25 season review
This review does not directly cover the 26/27 model you are viewing. Specifications and ride feel may vary by season.
The Ride Heartbreaker is a board for beginner-to-intermediate women riders aiming at all-mountain, providing a predictable, easy-to-handle ride feel with a soft flex and a hybrid camber profile. Packing premium specs such as Slimewalls and impact plates into a reasonable price makes it a fitting option for park newcomers too.
That said, advanced riders may find it wanting in pop and power.
A closer look
These descriptions and scores are linked to this review. They may differ from manufacturer specifications.
Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
Hybrid camber
A hybrid camber profile with traditional camber between the feet and rocker blended into the nose and tail tips. It provides power and edge feel between the feet while the catch-free nose and tail raise your sense of safety.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A soft flex with a very predictable, easy-to-handle character. On jumps it provides a soft, comfortable response rather than strong pop — flexibility tuned for beginner to intermediate women riders.

New · Intermediate
A soft flex provides predictable handling suited to beginners, while impact plates and slime walls also suit intermediates entering the park. Advanced riders may find power and pop lacking.
What the review liked
- ✓Slimewalls (urethane sidewalls) absorb vibration, improving edge hold on icy snow and dispersing rail impacts
- ✓Impact plates underfoot improve durability, landing stability and pop
- ✓The extruded base is easy to maintain and holds speed even without waxing
- ✓Nose and tail rocker give it excellent catch-free behaviour, letting beginners ride with confidence
What the review found lacking
- —The soft flex lacks the strong pop and sense of power advanced riders want
- —The extruded base has lower top-speed performance than a sintered base
