Rippin' Riders, called Snow Surfers in Europe, and Cool Boarders Burrrn! (クールボーダーズ・バーン) in Japan, is a 1999 snowboarding game by UEP Systems for the Sega Dreamcast.

The game was originally announced in 1998 simply as Cool Boarders (later Cool Boarders DC), and had a working title in North America as Extreme Boarders[17].

Rippin' Riders was released as part of the Cool Boarders series, taking elements from the first three PlayStation games (Cool Boarders (1996), Cool Boarders 2 (1997) and Cool Boarders 3 (1998)). With the expcetion of Cool Boarders Pocket for the Neo Geo Pocket Color, all future entries in the series would remain exclusive to the PlayStation and PlayStation 2.
