Default can I use pine for steambended ribs?

I am building a geodesic Snowshoe 14. I am having a hard time finding
green ash or white oak for the ribs. Can I steambend and use the pine
I have left over from making the stringers?

I can get red oak. Would this be any better than pine for the ribs?

If these won't work, can anyone recommend an online source for the ash
or white oak that will not cost a fortune to ship?
