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.

Nidecker Supermatic Carbon Snowboard Bindings 2025

Strap in, strap out, strap in, strap out. It's a drag, isn't it? The Nidecker Supermatic Carbon Snowboard Bindings change the game with a revolutionary drop in design that makes it easier than ever to get going. The all new configuration combines traditional straps with a reclining highback and automatic closure system. Simply drop your boot in from above, step down, and a heel pedal automatically snaps the highback and straps shut to lock you in for the ride. This upgraded Carbon version features a stiff, powerful flex and cutting edge lightweight materials for the best possible precision and response when you need it most. Super indeed!

Baseplate

Carbon Auto Base

Heel PedalThe heel pedal activates the automatic closing of the hiback and straps, and locks the engagement system. This mechanism is self-cleaning to avoid snow build-up, and there are three engagement clicks for increased security.

Release LeverPush to unlock the engagement system and lift your boot up & out. The release lever is located on the medial side of the baseplate for maximum ergonomic effi ciency and protection from external triggers.

Heelcup RollerThe heelcup roller reduces friction and guides the heel of the boot down, for buttery-smooth entry and exit.

Slip-N-Grip PlateReduces friction with the outsole of your snowboard boot. Allows you to easily slide in and out, without compromising the underfoot comfort of 2.5° Bankbeds.

Nylon Multidisk4HP + 3HP + Channel

Highback

Carbon S Ultraback

Reclining HighbackThe Reclining Hiback creates the fastest automatic entry system. It fully folds down, creating a large opening to conveniently drop in your boot.

Straps

Exo-Kush Pro S Hybrid Straps

Hexo Toe Cap with Aux TechA 3D Hinged Auxetic pattern for unmatched formfitting the toebox of your boot.

Active StrapAs you recline the hiback, the footstrap gets actively lifted out of the way, so you can easily and conveniently get your boot in and out. The straps hug your boot with the tightness at which you first set them, each & every time you drop in.

Buckles

LSR 2.0 Auto-Lock CarbonLocking Slap Ratchet buckles lock down to secure your preferred footstrap tightness. Either Set-it and Forget-it for the Automatic mode, or just use them like regular buckles for the two-strap experience.

Additional Features

Drop In TechnologyThis technology was developed to allow easy opening and closure in complete safety. Multiple notches allow the binding to lock shut from the first click; there are three in total, which allow closure even if obstructed by snow accumulation. Just in case you’re in steep or off-camber terrain...or waist deep powder.
