LIB TECH Golden ORCA snowboard 2027 - 157
The Lib Tech Golden Orca was designed to be exactly what Travis needed when competing in the Natural Selection competition, a combination of the fan favourite Orca and his own T.Rice Pro. Take his award winning Orca and make a small alteration to the tail to make it more user friendly riding switch in powder, construct it with a lighter, more powerful core, and you have the newest evolution in the Orca line. If you want to stand out in a pod of other Orcas on the mountain, look no further than the Golden.
* Due to the volume shift on this board, we recommend you ride this board 1-3cm shorter than your normal board. *
Board Type: Freeride-Powder
Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders.
Flex: 6/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.
Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced
Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres.
Advanced snowboards are stiffer and more responsive, designed for high-speed control, precision riding, and handling challenging terrain or tricks.
Shape: Tapered Directional
A tapered directional snowboard features a shape where the tail is narrower than the nose, providing enhanced control and stability in deeper snow. This design improves floatation in powder and allows for smoother turns, making it ideal for freeride and backcountry riding. While it excels in one direction, the taper helps the board naturally guide you through challenging conditions.
Camber Type: C2x Directional
Shortened rocker between your feet with lengthened directional camber to the tip and tail gives you power and pop on groomers and in the park along with float and freedom to charge through powder. More loaded pressure in the tip and tail than regular C2 for a more aggressive and stable ride.
Width: Standard
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.
Board Construction
Topsheet: Eco Sublimated Poly Topsheet
This topsheet is made using an eco-friendly sublimation that is both strong and environmentally friendly.
Laminate: Tri-Ax/Bi-Ax Fiber with Basalt Alloy, Carbon X
The Tri-Ax and Bi-Ax alloy glass offers a smooth ride while keeping weight low and the addition of Basalt fiber creates a lightweight, strong, and damp ride. Carbon X are lively, light, and strong carbon fiber strands laid 30° on the board to create a more torsional response under your feet.
Core: FP - Fire Power Construction Core
Lighter, environmentally nicer, smoother, and livelier. Combines 60% Aspen and 40% Paulownia woods with Tri-Ax and Carbon X glass, you get an incredibly light, fast, and responsive ride.
Sidewall: Birch Internal, UHMW Sintered Sidewall
Durable, high-impact ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. It delivers exceptional impact resistance, superior resilience, and a smooth, damped ride.
Base: Sintered Knife Cut Base
This base is made of a fast sintered material with a die-cut base to reduce waste.
Additional Features:
- Magne-Traction
Seven strategically placed serrations along the edges of the board grip onto the snow and hold a strong edge in any condition.
