Lib Tech Skate Banana Snowboard 2009
The Lib Tech Experimental Division has been secretly developing (Banana Technology) for past two years and has arrived at another major step in the development/evolution of true functional snowboard geometry. Banana Technology, like Magne-Traction before it, begins with the premise that a snowboard is not a ski. Banana Technologies replaces camber with the rocker (banana) between your feet. When you stand on your board, pressure is now applied inward to the edge area at and between your feet as your weight presses out the rocker. The Banana Technology flex pattern is slightly stiffened at the tip and tail to increase pop and stability on big landings. Magne-traction is incorporated into the Banana Technology to improve edge hold and put even more control underfoot at your balance point. The end result is a board that is loose and catch-free, presses boxes, rails and jibs extremely well with the preset rocker, maintains pop with a stiffened tip and tail, and turns easily on hardpack when the built in rocker is put on edge. The built in rocker curve makes the board float naturally in powder and the firm nose and tail prevent board from folding in chunky conditions.
