MAGNE-TRACTION: Replaces “two contact point” ski theory. Conventional skis and snowboards have two contact points. Our Magne-Traction boards have seven! Seven is more than two. With Magne-Traction, when your two outside contact points lose grip, you’ve still got five more to take over. You won’t fall as much. Rides like a skateboard. Control and turn initiation come from under your feet, not a foot and a half to either side of your feet. Better edge hold. Climbs icy pipes! Turns ice into powder! Skate Bananas, Cygnus X1, Dark Series, Travis, Phoenix, TRS MTX, TRS BTX, MC Kink, Box Scratcher, Snowskate, Skunk Apes, Mullets.
BIO-PLASTIC BEANS: DROP BEANS NOT BOMBS! ExperiMENTAL division leader Mike Olson loves beans! When he’s not eating them he’s buying plastics made with them. Lib Tech has made a commitment to using a new earth friendly, bio-plastic top skin made from beans that features the highest strength-to-weight ratio of any top sheet in the industry. While there is clearly still the need to invade small, helpless, oil producing countries for money and power, this new age of bio-plastics offers hope of a more peaceful and fruity future! Cygnus X1, Dark Series, Travis, Hammock, Phoenix, Lando, Mullet.
GOLDEN FLEECE: We now look forward to a day when fiberglass is no longer an ingredient of Lib Tech snowboards. There are several dangerous elements, such as boron and others, used to produce fiberglass. Basalt is produced in a clean, pure process consisting of high heat and absent of toxic additives. Not only is it safer for humans, it’s easier to recycle. Basalt fiber has strength properties much higher than fiberglass and better damping properties for a smooth ride. Cygnus X1, Dark Series, Phoenix, Lando, TRS MTX, TRS BTX.
H-POP CORE: Wood Alloy Core. Experimental new dead tree with the highest compression response ever used in a snowboard. It has half the glue weight and absorbs less resin weight. Another industry first for Lib Tech. Phoenix, TRS BTX, TRS MTX, Travis Rice.
AIRCORE: Air is light, air is strong. Our patented linear wood honeycomb. 20% lighter than conventional cores, 30% increase in longevity over conventional cores. Skunk Apes.
PALONIA WOOD CORE : The new timber of the 21st century! Extremely fast growing, light weight, strong, stable and temperature resistant. Super Trees. Cygnus X1, Dark Series.
SINTERED CARBON 9991 BASE: Carbon sounds tech, doesn’t it? Fast base material for tech-tuning freaks. Wax required. Oneballjay recommended. Cygnus X1.
SINTERED UHMW BASE: Super tough base material that holds wax well due to its compression formed amorphous polymer structure. Super fast when waxed with Oneballjay.Dark Series, Travis, Skate Banana.
POWER TRANSFER SPINE: Futuristic power 90º pop technology from our world record setting skateboards. Transfers energy from your feet directly to the tip and tail. More Pop through the Woodshop.Phoenix, Dark Series, Lando.
ORG THROTTLE: Our functional 3-D riser system that features crossband wood platforms with edge to edge grain orientation that transfers energy directly from your feet to the power transfer internal sidewalls and out along your edges. Control, power and pop. Dark Series
QUAD-AXIAL TORSION BOX: The fiberglass backbone of the board. Triax top glass wraps around the core and bonds to biaxial bottom glass creating a “torsion box”. This fiberglass box structure is very strong and responsive. Built into all korrect kap Lib’s. Pop! Phoenix Series.
SHDRESS SIDEWALLS: Self Healing D65 Rebound Elastomer Seamless Sidewalls- one piece perimeter sidewall with super impact resistance, vibration reduction, and the healing properties of a human body. Cygnus X1.
RADIAL SIDECUTS: Catch-free take offs, solid landing ease. A radial sidecut is a curve derived from part of a circle. Radial sidecuts are smooth, predictable and feel the same riding regular or switch. Phoenix Redhead.
TWIN DIRECTIONAL SHAPES: Effortless freestyle freeride geometry. Nose is a bit longer and higher than the tail. Floats in powder and crud, still a double ender, ride ‘em straight or switch hit. It’s a snowboard. Phoenix Series
TWIN HARMONIC GEOMETRIES: A super smooth symmetric combination of 3 main snowboard design elements. Elliptical sidecuts, elliptical core profiles & elliptical camber all work in harmony to maximize edge control and pop. Predictable when your life is on the line. Dark Series
KINK: Transition ease. A kinked tail is a tail curve derived from a kink. A smooth mellow entry floats over all obstacles, kink aggressivly changes tip angle allowing maximum height be reached quickly. This allows a shorter, lighter board with an equal tip height. Great for climbing walls or tech switch landings. MC KINK.
DIRECTIONAL TAPER ANGLE SHAPE: Tip floats effortlessly in pow. Focused on riding in one direcion. Great for old surfers, and organic hikers. Mullets.
