ALL MOUNTAIN - DIRECTIONAL TWIN
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.

Ever since i stepped on my skunk ape, my riding has gone from 0-100. This board is capable of conquering extreme terrain. Never underestimate the power of the almighty skunk ape. The OG board for big boys who like to go big on the slopes. Im 6'0, 200 lbs , size 12 boot, riding a 165W and i have no complaints, this board does everthing i need and more.
6' 220 lbs sz13 boot I bought the 165w and it's the best board I've ever ridden. I can go faster than ever with amazing control. Keep up the great work Lib Tech!
I'm 190 pounds, 6'3" size 13 boot. I started riding a Skunk Ape in 2008 and it changed my life. I think it had a full reverse camber. I've been snowboarding since the mid 90's and only rode regular camber up until that point. That Skunk Ape was easily the most fun wide board I ever strapped into. In 2013 I bought a 161 Skunk Ape with C2 camber and loved it! Really appreciate having a little more control at high speeds. I just bought another 2021 Skunk Ape and don't think I will ever buy anything else. Thank you Lib Tech!
This board rips all the things! On a scale from one to ten... this boards on 11!
So to start I'm 6'6, 230lbs, and wear a size 14 boot. I'm riding the 170 uw. I've been riding for the better part of 20 years. Friends always told me "just ride a 158w, ride a 162w, you're good enough you'll be able to throw it around" I listened for far too long. Now that I'm an adult I figured I'd give a board made to fit me a shot. I was coming from a 162w custom x. This board on a scale was nearly the EXACT weight of the custom x even though it was significantly larger in every way. I gained almost an inch of width riding the skunk ape which in turn gave me the first board I've ever rode with zero toe or heel hang. I've had experience with other rocker boards and I always felt they were too sketchy at speed to be comfortable so I quickly got rid of them and went to my firmilar camber. If you've had a similar experience and you're unsure about this board listen to me. This is THE most stable board I've ever ridden. Everything you throw at it it will eat. The design is brilliant in every way. 10/10 this is the only board I will ever purchase again. Thank you libtech for realizing big dudes shred too.
