Lib Technologies Skate Banana Original Narrow BTX Snowboard - 2008

We bet there are quite a few shredders out there who drool over the Magne-Traction, Banana technology, and original colors in the Skate Banana, but who wish Lib Tech would tailor a board toward the non-lumberjack-sized riders of the world. Welcome to the Lib Tech Skate Banana Original Narrow BTX Snowboard. Lib Tech made this stick with a narrow waist (242mm for the 148cm) and slightly shorter length. The Narrow Skate Banana's Banana Rocker construction redirects pressure to your edge area (instead of the tip and tail) so you get more control underfoot. Mix with the Magne-Traction technology, and the Skate Banana carves on ice, pops in the park (due to a semi-flexy middle and a stiff tip and tail), holds its own on big landings, and won't submarine in the powder.

Bottom Line: A narrow, slightly shorter version of the original Banana.

Best board ever invented!

I was lucky and got this board last year. in the 148 narrow width. I have 6.5 women's size boots. I cannot even put into words how fun this board is. I am 5'8" 135 lbs and I can ride my 148 in deep pow with no problem. it spins and butters so awesome and is so fun. It is awesome in the pipe. You can not ride this board once and really have a good grasp in all it can do. I get sick of arguing with people who only ride it once or twice. Ride this thing for a week + and you will not know how you lived life with out it. It took a little bit of time to get used to it on rail and pipe, but once I figured out how it turns and balances....MONEY! I went back to a regular board a few times this year and I just wished the whole time I was back on my banana board. I use this snowkiting and it is awesome. Reduces the amount I have to lean back while cruising. This is great in bumpy snow and crud. The most amazing all around board out there! With the magne-traction, you will never loose an edge.
