Swallowtails never weren't cool, like double negatives, or mohawks when noticed on other people that are not yourself. You don't have to throw your style all the way back to a brave haircut just to surf mountains the way snowboarding pioneers took to the hills inspired by big waves. Hop on the Lib Tech Lost Retro Ripper C3 Snowboard and spare yourself the questionable 'do. Reward yourself with a responsive pow beast with a riding position set way back so you can whapow, whoosh, and swoop the steep and deep in style.
Product Details
Rocker Type
C3 Camber – Aggressive dominant camber zones out to the contacts combined with mild rocker between your feet. Subtle Banana rocker gives freestyle freedom with maximum end-to-end stability for big, high-speed lines. For aggressive, skilled riders. EJack, Jamie Lynn, and Fredi K's favorite.
Flex
Medium Flex – The most versatile flex because it is equally responsive and friendly giving riders peak performance all over the mountain.

Graphics
Art by Katsushika Hokusai – Inspired by a reverence for Japanese culture and a love for empty pow fields. For this instant classic powder swallow glider Matt selected one of Japan's most iconic and revered artists, Katsushika Hokusai. Hokusai produced art under many names in many styles, much of which was lost in a fire in 1839. His original art, when adapted into the clear Bio Beans material in the eco sublimation process, shows hints of the natural wood core and produces an almost 3-D visual. You can ride it or hang it on the wall... both options are lovely.

Terrain
Freeride Freeride snowboards are designed for the rider that spends most of the day off groomed runs and in backcountry terrain. They typically have a stiffer flex and are ridden in longer sizes than freestyle snowboards. Freeride snowboards often feature a directional shape that is designed to perform optimally in one direction. Powder Powder snowboards love powder. Often associated with freeride snowboards, powder boards sometimes feature a wider nose and a tapered narrower tail. The binding inserts, which determine the rider's stance, are often set back on a powder snowboard to help the rider float the tip of the board through the deep stuff. Powder snowboards sometimes also feature rocker, a design element where the tip (and tail) rise starts farther back on the board, which also helps the rider maintain tip float through the pow.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Camber/Rocker/Camber
More
Rocker Type
Camber/Rocker/Camber Camber/Rocker/Camber is a profile that’s specific to snowboards and which works because the rider’s weight flattens the two cambered areas. This design produces a strong, pressured carving zone between the rider’s feet and retains pop and carving precision at the tip and tail.

Flex Rating:
Medium
More
Flex Rating
Medium The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
