Lib Tech Travis Rice Banana Hammock - 2010
stats:
A tip to tail Banana profile with reverse sidecut? Sounds more like a Wakeboard than a snowboard. Designed for riding the deepest of snow only! As much use as a chocolate fire guard in any other conditions.
Manufacturer's Description:
THE BANANA HAMMOCK kills the pow in either direction. Wide planshape at your bindings eliminates binding drag in the steep powder.Unless all you do is ride red discs, hike or heli, this should be your second board.

Why would anybody buy a board shaped like a sausage? Can you actually ride it on the piste?

Hey Marcus,
It’s been scientifically proven that sausages float very well in deep snow. On the flip side a reverse sidecut wouldn’t be a great deal of fun on a piste. This board is for those serious powder riders who hike or use a sled to get to their stash. I really can’t wait to shred one of these boards….but AK, Jackson Hole and Japan are a long way away!
