Lib Tech Skate Banana

Rating: 4 out of 5
  • Currently 4.0/5.0

The Lib Tech Skate Banana BTX 2010 snowboard is back and has already picked up two awards for the 2010 season; Snowboard-Mag 2010 Excellence in Board style and TransWorld Snowboarding 2010 Great Wood Test. For those of you who've not rode a Lib Tech board, this is 1 you should attempt.

The 2010 Lib Tech Skate Banana BTX has the "Banana Tech", which essentially provides you a a ton of control and really feel in between your feet. This snowboard rides catch-free and is loose although you'll notice that the tip and tail are fairly stiff. I believe a great deal of the Jib riders are truly going to adore this board, as the stiff tip and tail are going to create pressing off the boxes and rails a great deal simpler after which the low spin weight of this Lib Tech board are going to create it a ton of enjoyable.

I personally discovered the rocker just a little too exaggerated compared with other rocker varieties available correct now, but attempted it with a few of the new ride 'wedged' bindings and that sorted every thing out nicely giving a much better really feel to the board. Magnatraction edges seemed to complete the trick within the early morning ice too, and this factor hugged the pipe wall. As the above review mentions the nose and tail are fairly stiff and suits the board nicely.

My only issue with this board, and regrettably it's a large one, will be the base. My god that thing is slow! Regardless of wax, I truly noticed. Otherwise, it's a a truly enjoyable board.

Overall the Lib Tech Skate Banana BTX is going to create your 2010 season a ton of enjoyable no matter if it's hitting the park, just ripping up the mountain or cruising within the powder as this board can do it all.
