Everything about Lib Tech Skate Banana
The Lib Tech Skate Banana is a groundbreaking snowboard known for its playful and versatile performance.
Magne-Traction is a patented technology that creates wavy edges on snowboards for improved grip on icy and hard snow. These waves provide extra contact points that increase stability and control.
"The board that can make every situation memorable. Whether you're hanging in the air, carving powder, or sliding over metal, it makes everything enjoyable. I always step off the board smiling. Well, I also smile after I've fallen, but either way, the board is fun." - Brandon Reis.
