Lib Technologies T.Rice Pro Model C2BTX Blunt Snowboard - 2011
Travis Rice is on another level. The aforementioned understatement is a fact not to be debated, but a truth held by the entire shred community, young and old. The T.Rice Pro Model C2BTX Blunt Snowboard was built to Travis' specs for riding big-mountain AK features and oversized Wyoming backcountry booters. Lib Tech's C2BTX Technology, which combines the all-mountain awesomeness of the C2 Banana Hybrid profile with the sure grip of Magne-Traction edges, makes sure that the T.Rice Pro eats up anything and everything that comes its way.
C2 Power Banana hybrid shape places camber under your feet and rocker in between for a loose, fun ride that still carves through turns
Magne-Traction edges add five contact points to offer exceptional grip and control, even on icy snow
Blunt tips reduce swing weight and edge hang-ups for easier spins and slides
Bioplastic topsheet made from castor beans is both tough and good for the planet
I'm 5'4 and 160lbs. I am looking for a board that is strictly for park. (mostly jumps, not many rails) I am currently riding a Rome SDS 150cm, I might want to upsize a little but im not sure. However, I do not want a directional board, that is how my rome is set up and it affects my riding, thanks
i would definately go with the t rice pro model. i ride the t rice pro model, 153cm and the board KILLS jumps. its REALLY stiff so you can hit 50-60 foot booters and stomp them clean no problem. i've had absolutely no problems on any rails, although i did get hung up once on an A frame rail this season. other than that, this board absolutely slays every aspect of the mountain.
If u want a poppy, light , terrain park, all mountain ripper this is the board for u hands down. Great technology in the board and sick graphics. Best board of 2012 in my opinion
157.5 would be choice! The board is sort of wide, so please keep that in mind. Waist width is around 25.8cm, so 10+ shoe size is favorable (but not necessary).

Just got the 153 today the board is awesome and is poppy. Just saw the board is 20% off now so hopefully dog funk will give me the 100 back or a credit for a future purchase
I'm 5'5 and 143 lbs, i mostly ride the mountain, and rarely enter the park, but mostly use the mountain to play around a little.. Is the 153 to big for my size? I'm currently riding a Burton Twin 149 which I do kinda find a little bit too short, but I don't know if it's because I'm just short in general and looking at other peoples board sizes makes mine feel too short.. Boards are kinda expensive in my part of the world, so it's not like I've tried so many different sizes/brands etc.
board size is all about feel and riding conditions. if you stay in the park you can downsize. if you ride powder and like speed you will want to size up. the hybrid style of this board gives the board a bigger feel without extra cms. hope this helps. if at all possible rent or demo different boards to know what is out there.
I read some reviews that this board rides larger than its size. Anyone know if there is any truth to this. Normally I ride a 151 and a step to a 153 is a jump in itself. I consider myself an all mtn rider. 5'5 and 130lbs.
So I bought a TRS 154 the beginning of the season, it was ok, I was used to my old trice 153. I cored it through the topsheet without even noticing till the end of the day, most the time you feel when you hit something sketchy, not this time. Since I bought from dogfunk I wasn't too pissed due to they're return policy. So I exchanged for this trice 153, and got it two days ago. today went to Vail, again, didn't do over anything I thought risked the boards ptex, skipped the rocky tree sections just went down groomwers. Well at the end of the day I'm cored to the topsheet again. Again I'm sending this one back, and going Never Summer Evo, lib has gone cheap on they're bases obviously,although buying from this site guarantees me a new board if anything happens I can't go though 6+ boards a season, this boards reliability just isn't for the everyday shredder. Great deck but horrible reliability. Look elsewhere if you want you're board to last. Not stoked!!
i have to agree with BF. i ride a lib tech every single year and one lasts me the season fine. never had a problem with board. although i've never tried the cheapo version of this board... get some more money and get the horsepower...
i'm 6'1" 180lbs with a size 11,5 (Vans boot). I`m looking board for park and flat. Do you think T Rice 157 will be fine for me or i need some more wide? thanks
if you want a soley a park board look at the box scratcher. the t.rice is the best board ive ever ridden. it does work amazing in the park,but the camber and aggressive edges will catch on boxes and spin weirdly of certain jumps.
I just picked up the 157 and spent the last week and a half on it through the I-70 corridor in Colorado and it was sick! It rocked every set of conditions the mountains threw at me. It rips through groomers and hardpack, you can really lay down an edge and let it do it's thing. The magna traction worked great in some of the icier conditions that I ran into earlier in the week, it's got great pop coming off of rollers, cliffs, etc, and best of all it floated with ease through a foot or so of powder. Absolutely love it!
on these boards ive started seeing the front and back end black and whited out..before it was all color..please tell me this isnt what it looks like now with the b/w front and back..?
This is correct, the tip and tails are black and white and the center is colored. What you are thinking of is the HorsePower version of the T Rice that has color from tip to tail.
i'm 5'7" 165lbs with a size 7 boot i'm currently riding a Ride Society 154 and i was looking to add the T Rice 157 to my collection, do you think this board would be too wide for me or do you think it would rip just fine? thanks
I was use to riding a super soft 150 then switched up to the T Rice 157. Im just a little bigger than you are and i find the 157 to be slightly to big if u want to use it as an all mountain board where ur doing tree riding, park. For groomers and pow the 157 does fine, just seems a little big.
The 157cm is 258mm at the waist and this is not a wide board. If you want a longer board great but, this is a hybrid board which delivers more with less length. If you're looking for a new board maybe stick with a 154. Below is a link to lib tech's tech page for this board. http://www.lib-tech.com/snowboards/travis-rice-pro/
