What does freeride means?

Question

does freeride means DH, jumps, or tricks?

got confused by the videos on youtube.

Answer 1

Freeride refers to snowboarding that is not freestyle and not carving.  It starts with making linked turns on groomed terrain and goes to all mountain riding and back-country riding.  however, when you use the term freeriding most people will think you are talking about riding groomed runs.  A freeride board will typically have a directional twin tips shape and moderate flex.

Answer 2

I think freestyle is jumps and tricks.

Answer 3

Freeride is when you move your girlfriend in with you and she doesn't have a job or trust fund or rich daddy and you're paying for her to mooch off of you and not give you any action. Therefore she's getting a "free ride". Now just vote me best answer and be done with it
