Lib Tech 2027 Orca II

DESCRIPTION

Not your gutless fish. Travis has juiced up this Jackson Hole resort slasher into an apex all terrain tech shred predator. A long floaty nose combined with a powerful poppy contact maximizing short radius “Whale Tail Technology”. A tight 7m trench gouging sidecut. Wide enough to allow you to really put it on a hardpack rail with no toe drag and float pillows like a dream but still narrow enough to be your daily driver all season long. Take it to AK, drop BC pillow stacks or blow minds at the home resort all season. A mammal to eat all fish. TR. Award winning!

• Now built with eco-sublimated Ocean-bound PBT top material made from recycled PET plastic waist collected from coastal areas.
• Introducing strong, poppy Makah Hemlock wood cores sustainably harvested by the Makah tribe who reside on the Northwestern most corner of the USA near our factory.

Travis and Mervin will be donating a portion of the sale of each Orca snowboard to the www.orcaconservancy.org in support of their efforts to prevent the extinction of the Salish Sea’s Southern Resident Killer Whales. #betheirvoice

Weight: 190lbs
Boot Size: 11

Orca 150: I’ll sometimes go tight carving resort on this board although this is pretty small for me. Fun Small, still enough waist width.

Orca 153: This is the main size I ride for resort and steep back country and technical steep trees, pillows and spines. My favorite resort Carver and what I use for Natural Selection events.

Orca 156: I ride this board on deep days in back country, along with resort pow days. I ride my boards a hair smaller than I think most people should ride them.

Orca 159: I ride this board when there is deep pow and I’m not riding very steep terrain.

Orca 162: I’ll ride this on extreme deep and light snow and not very steep
