Everything about the Lib Tech Orca
Travis has upgraded this Jackson Hole resort slasher into a top all-terrain tech shred predator. A long floaty nose combined with a powerful poppy contact maximizing short radius "Whale Tail Technology".

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 enhance stability and control.

The Lib Tech Golden Orca has won the Natural Selection competitions with strength and agility in both directions.
Discover the Lib Tech Orca
The Lib Tech Orca is not an ordinary snowboard, but rather a powerful and versatile shredder designed to dominate in any terrain. This board, praised by none other than Travis Rice, is optimized for top performance in both Jackson Hole and beyond.
With an elongated nose, the Orca effortlessly floats over powder snow, while the "Whale Tail Technology" provides explosive pop and maximum surface contact. The tight 7-meter sidecut allows for sharp turns and deep trenches, while the wide footbed enables you to ride hard rails with ease, free from toe drag.
This board is designed to serve you every day of the season, whether you're going off-piste in Alaska, exploring pillow stacks in the backcountry, or just showing off at your local resort. The Orca is not just a board; it is a predator that devours all other boards.
Moreover, Travis Rice and Mervin Manufacturing contribute to the preservation of the Southern Resident Killer Whales in the Salish Sea by donating a portion of the proceeds from each sold Orca snowboard to the Orca Conservancy. By purchasing the Orca, you can not only enjoy unparalleled performance but also contribute to a noble cause.
The volume-shifted design of the Orca means you can ride this board 3-6 cm shorter than your normal snowboard, resulting in a playful and agile experience. If you’re looking for an award-winning snowboard that excels in versatility and performance, then the Lib Tech Orca is the right choice. Feed the shark in your snowboarding skills and let the Orca take you to new heights on the mountain.
