Lib Tech Skate Banana Snowboard - Men'sby Lib Tech

Product Info

A lot has changed in snowboarding the last 20 years or so, but the O.G. rocker board Skate Banana from Lib Tech is still here. The Skate Banana is a medium plus flexing true twin snowboard that is ideal for a more freestyle inspired style of riding, whether you are in the park or cruising the groomers. The rocker dominant hybrid profile has two mild camber bumps under foot, which help to keep more of your edge in contact with the snow while turning for extra hold, as well as add extra pop when releasing your turn and for your ollies. The TNT (Titanium Nano Technology) base from Lib uses unique materials and process that help keep the base closer to snow temps to help reduce friction which is what causes you to slow down. To top things off the Tri-Ax/Bi-Ax fiberglass layup provides the pop and power you need to get off the ground, but the torsional flex you want to press, butter, and rider boxes and rails. Whether you are a park rat or just looking for a fun, playful, yet forgiving all mountain board the Lib Tech Skate Banana may just be what you are looking for.

Technical Features

True Twin

A true twin shape is exactly how it sounds. The board is mirrored from nose to tail with shape and flex. This allows for ultimate rideability in either direction. Whether you land a 180 or a 360, the board is sure to ride out the same way.

Original Banana Rocker

Is a fun way of saying rocker. Rocker eliminates the leverage required to release and re-engage a snowboard's outside contact points, making it easier to enter and exit your turns, float in the powder, and won't punish you for your mistakes as much.

Skill Level

The beginner or better rider looking for a twin freestyle/park board that will still work very well in all conditions.

Flex Rating

The 4/10 flex is super friendly and maneuvers with ease. The camber sections under-foot give added pop for when it’s time to jump over obstacles.

Magne-Traction® Edges

Strategically located and sized edge serrations provide unreal edge hold and control in all conditions. Allowing you to lay down your edge confidently on the iciest days. 

Original Power [OP] Construction Core

An FSC certified 75% Aspen / 25% Paulownia wood core built to be light and tough with pop and power. The sidewalls are layered with internal end grain birch and the external is wrapped in UHMW polyethylene. The birch is there to improve edge hold and stability, while the UHMW polyethylene dampens vibration and protects from impacts. Uniquely Lib Tech also adds a healthy dose of UHMW polyethylene to the tip & tail for impact deflection. This makes repairs easier and significantly reduces the chance of damaging the core when the unfortunate happens.

Tri-Ax / Bi-Ax Glass

A combination of Tri-Ax and Bi-Ax glass allows for flex where you want it, but stability, strength, and pop when you need it.
