Lib Tech TRS HP C2X 2018 Snowboard Black Red 162
OVERVIEW
The HP in the title stands for "Horse Power". Lib's HP construction is individualized with a TNT base which claims to be the fastest base without wax out there, and a basalt alloy added with the tri-axial and bi-axial fibers to give you the control you want at said top-speed. The C2X profile is going to give you lots of power too. There is an aggressive rocker section in the middle of the board which allows float in the fluff and makes preloading tricks easier while lengthened camber sections sit underfoot so you know you'll have pop when you need it. A favorite for freestyle rippers like Matteo Soltane and technical freeride rippers like Blair Habenicht, this is a progressive board meant to take your skills further than you imagined.
Utilizing nature's renewable resources like the light and snappy Columbian Gold, Aspen and Paulownia woods, a durable bio-synthesized bean topsheet, and smooth UHMW sidewalls in this board helps snowboarding remain a viable industry for future generations as well as pushing the boundaries to find materials that are perfect for taking abuse so you can have a responsive, lively board underfoot year after year.
RECOMMENDED USE
All Mountain + Park - Versatile go-everywhere board for the freestyle minded..
SHAPE
Twin - Typically designed for park and jib-influenced riding, this Twin shape snowboard category includes True Twins and Almost Twin (aka Twin-ish or Twin-like) boards with centered stances.
True Twins are symmetrical in shape/flex and will ride exactly the same regular or switch - while Almost Twins will ride equally well in both directions but may have a slightly lengthened (or heightened) nose than tail for a bit better float when riding your normal stance.
FLEX
Medium Stiff - Good stability, pop, somewhat aggressive response and control. Also ideal for slightly bigger riders.
KEY FEATURES
C2X Power Banana Rocker/Camber Profile - A new formula of C2 with a short, but aggressive Banana rocker combined with cambers that sit underfoot. Extra solid tip and tail pressure for power, pop, precision and end-to-end stability combined with a medium amount of pressure between your feet for carving and edge hold on ice and float in pow.
Magne-Traction Serrated Edges - Award-winning Magne-Traction features strategically placed bumps that create seven contact points along each side of your sidecut. This increases edge hold and allows for knife-like carves without the hook. Magne-Traction is a perfect complement to Banana Rocker and helps increase grip and control.
Horsepower Construction (HP) - Lighter and smoother than Original Power Construction, in the HP construction Ultra high molecular weight (UHMW) materials are used in the sidewalls and tip/tail serving to deflect impacts and smooth out your ride. Overall this construction is considered light, environmentally nice, and smooth.
Note: The HP+ construction adds bamboo risers underneath the binding area for more efficient energy transfer throughout the board.
Handbuilt in the USA - Every Lib Tech board is handmade by snowboarders with jobs in the USA. Libs are built with tough and fast UHMW external sidewalls and impact resistant end grain internal sidewalls. Ultra-light weight rugged "polymer bumper" sandwich tip and tails are standard on all Lib Techs. Steel edges are used for control along the contact area and "tucked in" just past the contacts for minimum spin weight. This means that heavy, unnecessary steel edges are eliminated from the tips and tails.
