Lib Tech T.Rice Pro Snowboard 164.5 - 2012
Somewhere in the USA, close to the Canadian border there is a little factory that makes snowboards. They have come to prominence in the last few years after re-inventing reverse camber profiles and extolling the virtues of the humble banana as a snowboarding maxim. They have won widespread acclaim for their endeavours both in the recreational circles and among the pros with their team roster now reading like a who's who in snowboarding with Jamie Lynn, Jesse Burtner, Mark Landvik and Jakob Wilhelmson all amongst their ranks. The cherry on that particular cake is widely regarded to be T(ravis).Rice, the eponymous hero of this particular snow stick famed for his parts with the Absinthe crew and latterly his own movies 'That's It That's All' and most recently 'The Art of Flight'. Anyone who has seen any of his movie parts, or better still seen him rip up close, will tell you that he is full on all the time so it stands to reason that he'll need something pretty special under his bindings to cope! The T.Rice Pro has been part of the Lib Tech stable for a few years now and features the C2BTX profile, camber under the feet, reverse camber through the rest of the board and Lib Tech's magne-traction edges, which delivers speed, power and control on any terrain. The T.Rice Pro is for advanced riders who treat the whole mountain as their playground, the shorter lengths feature a blunted nose for reduced spin weight while the longer lengths have a pointy nose for better balance and float in the deeps. This is a serious snowboard for people that ride on the redline all the time and need something that can keep up!
