The way I look at it is in 3 areas park freestyle freeride. So freestyle is a mix of the two. Freeride is carving hard at high speeds. So Freestyle is just simply put as all mountain. And Cyrus is right about everything he said, i'm just trying to give another option.

freestlye boards are for riders who basically bring the park idea to the whole mountain, if you see anything that can even be kinda considered a jump, u session it all day and find ways to do something sick off of it, even tho ur not in a park doesnt mean you have to be tied to the ground...freeride boards are for the powder hounds who search for big lines and dont spend much time elsewhere, they need a stiff board thats shaped for powder because when ur on the huge lines, you need something more supportive than a freestlye board...freeride boards are hard to ride and will kick your butt up and down the mountain if you dont put your heart and soul into every turn, freestyle boards are much more common and easy to ride and manuvuer, but arent as good in pow or huge lines...and ive answered one of ur questions before, just go EST dude, it has the most stance options of any boards ever, thats what ur lookin for
