Close your eyes. Imagine the perfect park day at your local resort… mid to high 30s, sunny with just one little happy cloud in the distance, every feature groomed to perfection, all your buds in tow, and of course you stomp everything first or second go. While we can’t promise this fantasy world, you CAN realistically strap into one of the fantasy park snowboards listed below. And when you and your board click, some days really can feel close to perfect.
For those looking to dominate the terrain park in 2024, a few standout models are leading the charge in innovation and design. The new Lib Off Ramp makes its debut, promising riders a fresh experience with its unique construction and performance capabilities. The Headspace, a favorite among park enthusiasts, returns with a revamped shape, ensuring better agility and response during those critical moments. Additionally, K2 has reimagined their classic with the redesigned Medium, set to redefine park snowboarding standards. As riders contemplate choosing their next park snowboard, these exciting updates and additions ensure they're equipped to push their boundaries and explore new dimensions of freestyle snowboarding this season.
If you're after the ultimate jib stick, look no further than the all new Lib Tech Off Ramp Snowboard. Designed and refined by Phil Hansen, Matteo Soltane, and friends, this freestyle machine is perfect for riders stacking clips in the park and the streets alike. Powerful C3 Camber pairs with a true twin shape, Magne-Traction edges, and a poppy Aspen and Paulownia core for a tough, durable board that's begging to be thrashed on your favorite features.
Duncan, Retail Associate: "It’s full of camber and full of fun snowboard for the intermediate to advanced park rider. Its comfortable on both rails and jumps of all sizes and it flies on a top to bottom run if the groomers are too good to pass up."

The GNU FB Head Space C3 Snowboard is Forest Bailey's tool for street sessions, park laps, and side hit shenanigans. The latest model drops in with a fresh outlook, ditching asym life for a more traditional pill-shaped twin shape.

There's a light and poppy G-Lite 2 wood core, C3 Camber for power and stability, and Magne-Traction edges for grip. If you're riding park and building features in your back yard every time it snows, this is the board for you.
Landon, Data Specialist: "It screams freestyle and nods to old school boards with the new shape. The performance throughout various conditions and the ability to make anything you ride fun is unmatched. "

Rumor has it, if Coach would have put the Ride Benchwarmer Snowboard in during the fourth quarter, the team would have won state for sure. I mean, quadratic sidecut AND a directional shape? What's an opposing park feature supposed to do against that kind of combo? Add in a stiff flex, beefy Cleave edges, double impact plates, and a carbon-backed camber profile, and this freestyle twin can do things that others can't even dream of. It's incredibly maneuverable, mega poppy, and downright nasty stomping the big jump line. Don't leave this bad boy on the sidelines: get in the quiver, pronto!
