My daughter is in love!
Got her the 144 for deep west coast pow- we couldn't be happier!
ALL MOUNTAIN - DIRECTIONAL

Where on the mountain this snowboard is especially tuned to excel.
Beginner level snowboards are fun and approachable for all riders while an advanced snowboard is tuned for a particularly aggressive / athletic style of snowboarding.
How easily does this snowboard bend under pressure? A soft flex is great for fun maneuverability while a stiff flex is better for aggressive high speed hill bombing.

At first I was a little nervous about the massive amounts of praise for this board, worried that people were getting caught up in the hype. After spending time on it in a variety of conditions, I can confirm how versatile and fun it is. I agonized over picking a length; I'm a 6', 175lb advanced rider and ending up going with the 153 on the advice of a Lib Tech dude, and Jeremy Jone's comment that if you can't decide between 2 lengths, determine if you need to be the first guy to the bottom, or enjoy every little hit along the way. I'm in the 2nd camp, and the 53 has proven to be just right. Where this board shined for me is tight trees and deeper snow... the flotation is incredible.. but it even made groomers fun again, it really rails.
this is my first lib and I have no intentions of ever going with another brand. I just took it up for the first time since I got it and I was not a bit disappointed i just only wish i would of switched sooner. this board is amazing plain and simple and words do no justice for the orca. it rips through powder and floats nice even doing . I didn't catch an edge at all. everything said about this board is no bs. all I gotta say is I'd recommend this board to everyone. I felt like I've been riding libs my whole life. such a smooth ride, and honestly who wouldn't ride a board that the best snowboarder/ back country rider made. the best will make the best and settle for nothing less.
I rode my new board for the first time today. I've been snowboarding for 20 years and had no idea a board could perform like that! Absolutely the most amazing edge control of any board I have ever rode! I had the time of my life! The Orca is poppy, incredibly stable in all types of conditions, responsive, and has an amazing ability to grab turns.
I never saw the need (or had the funds) to justify having a powder specific board. But after an amazing winter at my home mountain I started contemplating the idea. When I came across the Orca I knew I had found something special! This board loves to float in pow, and is super responsive & stable for being a 153 (I normally ride 157-158). I’ve had a blast ripping pow, dropping cliffs, and popping airs & spinning 3s of every little hit that comes my way. It’s a super fun board that really excels on those deep days!
