A snowboard having a front section connected to a back section by a bendable connector. A rider places one foot on the front section and the other foot on the back section. The bottom of both sections have a series of curved longitudinal ridges positioned so that the bottom of each section curves in a convex manner both front to back and side to side. The rider's feet may be restrained from horizontal movement along the top surface by a recess in the top surface or by protrusions in the top surface.
