Lib Tech T. Rice Apex Orca Snowboard 2025

Nobody tells an 8,000 lb. sea mammal what it is or isn't going to have for lunch and the same applies to the fresh new Lib Tech T.Rice Apex Orca Snowboard. If it happens to be a 50 degree face with massive mandatory air, so much the better. Featuring the new Techno Pop construction with tip to tail unidirectional carbon fiber and massive Mega X Carbon reinforcements emanating from the binding mount areas backing up a core of Aspen, Paulownia and recycled plastic bottles, the Apex Orca is ready to make a feast of any slope you point it at.
