Lib Tech Birdman - 2012

You really have to pick the Lib Tech Birdman up with your own two hands to understand the pure scale of this snowboard. The shape is pretty regular at the rear of the board, then the nose starts and standard dimensions got out the window, it honestly looks like half of the board is made up of the nose but in reality the stance is only 4 inches set back… ok well that is 12cm in Euro measurements. Coming in at 170cm and 180cm in length, the rest of the dimensions are pretty conventional; the sidecut has a mere 8.3m radius and there is only 13mm of taper which is really minimal. If there’s one certainty about the Birdman, it’s that it will fly in the deep stuff

Manufacturer's Description:

Ice Eating Pow Flotation Device! A giant “Nazari / Snowbird” inspired “Flotation Device” nose, all terrain freestyle Banana Tech body. Nothing floats better, the all terrain shape will get you through any nasty chute on the way to your pow line and on top of that this thing still rips the hardpack in both directionsÖ absolute directional powder freedom. Skunk ape Kyle Phillips put a few choice days in on this one and here is what he had to say: “Took the 180cm to Tyax Heli, it truly was a dream to ride. Plenty of speedy float up top in the open deep, and with BTX and less surface area, this big bird easily handled the hardpack and tight trees on the way to LZ.” Art by Quincy Quigg
