Lib Tech Skate Banana BTX Snowboard - Blem 2013

Mervin’s revolutionary Banana Tech reverses a snowboard’s “pressure map” by focusing your weight between your feet, which results in better edge grip and carving, and reducing pressure at the tips and tails that makes the board less catchy and easier to pivot. Get on the Lib Tech Skate Banana BTX Snowboard and see what all the buzz is about! Note: This is a factory blem board and may have slight cosmetic damage.
Rocker Type
Banana Technology (BTX) - Rocker between your feet blended with flat-to-mild camber to contact points focuses pressure between your feet for easy turns, great edge hold on ice, and a mild amount of pressure to the tip and tail for unreal float and catch-free freestyle.
 
Flex
Flex Rating (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) - 4-6 depending on size
Shape
True Twin - A symmetrical shape for equally precise performance riding regular or switch.
Core
H-Pop - Wood Alloy Core is made from experimental new dead trees 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.
Sidewalls
Double Sintered UHMW Sidewalls - Twice as sintered as any other sidewall: tough, handsome, and light
Power Transfer Internal Sidewalls - The same futuristic power 90º pop technology from Lib Tech's world record setting skateboards and power transfer spines, only this time Lib Tech has placed it along the sidewall of your board to add board control to our sandwich construction: stronger, more pop, and more control.
Base
TNT - Fast and low maintenance dual layered fluoro base material: Wax it or maybe skip a day.
Edges
Magne-Traction™ - Serrated edges slice through the snow with 7 strategically located and sized bumps along each side of your sidecut giving you insane edge hold and precision control. The biggest bumps are at and between your feet where your balance is centered adding maximum control and power where you need it most. The bumps outside your feet are smaller and less aggressive providing tip and tail control but maintaining freestyle freedom.

      Comments about Lib Tech Skate Banana BTX Snowboard - Blem 2013:

      I think this is a great board. I started snowboarding this year on a women's specific board. I switched to this one at the tail end of the year and loved it. On steeper terrain and when you really need to make quick turns is where this board does well. It is light weight too so I felt that difference immediately.

        Board: 149
        Bindings: Flux RK30
        Boots: Ride Deuce
        Weight: 125lbs

        This is an amazing board. I love this thing. I consider myself still a beginner (2 seasons) at snowboarding but this board made EVERYTHING so easy it's ridiculous. The board I was using before this is a 2012 Rome Garage rocker with same bindings/boots.

        I was pleasantly shocked and surprised at how stable it was when I was just trying to ride straight/trying to gain speed. It felt like I had perfect control at medium speeds and compared to the Rome, at slow speeds it had too much grip which took a couple runs to get use to. Basically, the best way I can describe this board is if the Rome I was using took steroids for every category except for stability/control when carving/sliding at high speeds (to be fair, the Rome board was far too big for me). I did not want to leave the mountain the first day I took this board out and left me craving snowboarding.

        I would recommend this board to anyone, beginners as well, even though its a pricey board. It's worth it.

              What a sweet deal! New-Blemished board so it was heavily discounted. Took me 30 minutes to even find the blemish. TINY ding on the top sheet that you can barely notice and will probably happen anyway from normal use. Shipping was fast, and the staff was very helpful and accommodating in making sure it arrived in time for my trip. Thanks!

              GREAT board. Wonderful pop when you want it, flex when your buffering. And carving ability to pass those skiers. Doesn't get any better

                Dont know if the last reviewer knew the "hump" in the Midler is actually part of the magne traction, but regardless, great board I recommend to everyone. Obviously you will pay a little more for lib or GNU but there tech. Is well worth it. Response is great and that's huge. Enjoy!

                    Took this out for the first time today and it was great, the design is really cool and for being a blem it isn't that messed up. I was a little worried because it was cut with a little hump on the one side in the middle but it performed great. I'm very happy with this board.
