Lib Tech

A design collaboration between the legendary, 4x World Champion surfer/shaper, Mark Richards and Matt “Mayhem” Biolos in our dang difficult to ding environmentally nicer travel friendly construction!

A souped up and slightly sleeked out, all-around performance vehicle from two of the greatest minds in surfing. Not a true step up, but more of a bridge between squatty/speedy fish and a proper performance shortboard, equally at home in punchy, stomach-high shoreys or running overhead reef passes and point breaks.

STREAMLINED HIGH PERFORMANCE FOR EVERYDAY SURF AND MORE

The Quiver Killer version with our FOCII & FCS™ Fins compatible fin box system.

The perfect one board quiver. A simple plan shape, minimalistic continuous curves and a forgiving rounded thumb tail. Enough volume and surface area to create speed and be free and easy in anything but the smallest “true grovel” surf. Rounded tail, smaller nose area and performance tuned rocker line keeps too much rail from being wetted at once in small surf and allows precision, control and ease of pocket power surfing in solid waves.

Our experiMENTAL Division’s big guy “dream board” project gets a nose job! Constant testing and refinement by Trevor Phillips, Krush Kulesza, Neil Green and Kurt Jensen make this the best larger gentlemen’s power freestyle stick on the planet. The boys added a slightly more relaxed longer nose shape for pow float this year. The new ape is absolutely resort ready... hit the rails or put it on rail and trench, your toes won’t drag but your knuckles might and now the big beast is even more pow friendly. Built in ultra-light HP construction for easy on the front foot chair rides.

“All of my most memorial days riding in the Cascade Range were riding on a Skunk Ape. It is truly is a quiver killer, I have literally rode this board for over a decade straight. From Crystal to Baker this board crushed everything I threw at it, from chutes, cliffs, pillow lines, stomping landings, riding fast, nipple deep, park, pipe to cascade concrete, rain and ice.” - Trevor Phillips

Jamie Lynn’s classic 1996 freestyle stick is new again! If you shredded in the 90’s this stick is just what you need to push your snowboarding to new levels. If you were too young to see Jamie make a mark in those golden days of freestyle snowboarding, this stick is right on point for everything going on right now in modern freestyle snowboarding (check some classic Mack Dawg vids... Melt Down Project, Stomping Grounds and Simple Pleasures are all bangers): camber, radial sidecut, tighter radius tip and tail curves (modernized for better soft snow shredding). This one is sure to be a collectors item again!

“For the last couple of years we’ve been shifting towards a directional based snowboard. It’s time to get back to basics... and I could not think of a better way to do this than to offer a classic twin tip freestyle board that was truly one of my favorites... ‘96 was a good year. Let myself and Lib Tech help you get this board under your feet and make this year the best one ever.” -Jamie Lynn

Natural Selection winning power predator in both directions. Travis took his Orca learnings and merged them with his elite high performance snowboard world freestyle tour dreams to come up with this supreme Orca freestyle evolution. The long floaty Orca nose loves pow. A directional C2 contour rips resort, trenches hardpack carves and blasts off mountainous side hits. A brand new long floaty switch friendly power kink tail rides short powerful and poppy on hardpack but floats like a dream through switch freestyle takeoffs and landings. The beloved Orca merges with magical T. Rice Pro and manifests a golden power beast.

VOLUME SHIFTED, RIDE THIS BOARD 1-3 CM SHORTER THAN YOUR NORMAL BOARD.

• TRAVIS RICE’S NATURAL SELECTION WINNING PERFECTION
• RESORT DAILY DRIVER TO 1000 POW PILLOWS DREAM
• SWITCH FRIENDLY POWER KINK TAIL

A smaller rider’s dreamy camber, directional, all terrain freerider with unlimited freestyle capacity. A relaxed entry directional nose and mild taper floats the pow and crud effortlessly. The powerful C3 camber contour with Magne-Traction® guarantees precise hard pack carving and pop and stomp on big take offs and landings. The sustainable poppy aspen/paulownia core and fast running eco sublimated TNT base will have you beating your parents to the bottom all year long just like Bjorn Fredriksson does. You won't lose the battle with the DynaSword at your feet.

DREW BROPHY x MAYHEM x LIB TECH RNF ‘96

Legendary Posca Paint innovator Drew Brophy’s iconic 90s “quantum surf art” meets Matt’s updated RNF ‘96 performance fish shape. Inspired by a deep passion for physics, and beach lifestyle, Drew connects us all through his studies of the laws of nature, solar dynamics and ancient cultures. Take a journey through time to the mid nineties when Drew, Matt and the crew created magical mayhem.

The Lib x Lost Rocket Redux version with our FOCII & FCS™ compatible fin box system.

Birthed from the brains of Beschen and Budroe, refined by Biolos and made famous in the 2009 video classic 5’5” Redux. The Rocket was a global hit from Bros to Pros. Now the Rocket returns with updated modern features, refined curves and rails but retains the original low fast entry rocker, hyper extended tail curve for instantaneous down the line drive and precise turning. The deepest of concaves sets up a fast straight center line and curvaceous rail rocker adding lift and liveliness. The wide tail and parallel outline provides plenty of speed and hold and the hooked diamond “rocket” tail adds bite and hold in rear footed carves.

HIGH PERFORMANCE HYBRID

Bridges the gap between easy riding boards and the hp shortboard. A speedy combo of low entry rocker, wide-ish nose, forward wide point and a generous concave meet a performance tail rocker, double concave through the fins and the same sort of bump squash you find on a contest HP shortboard. It looks simple but sometimes less is more and there is a lot packed into this little board.
