About the Lib Tech Golden Orca
What is the Lib Tech Golden Orca good for?
The Golden Orca is a super techy volume-shifted board meaning Lib Tech have traded length for width to achieve the perfect surface area for float in pow. To really feel the benefits of this powerhouse you need to size down 3-6cm from your regular board length.
Its wide shape allows for aggressive edge engagement without toe drag, so you can get deep in the trenches and lay out smooth powder turns.
Yes, the wide waistline is engineered for deep powder ploughing but what sets this pow stick apart from the rest is its versatility.This thing excels on both soft and hardpack terrain thanks to the serrated outline for exceptional grip on icy slopes and effortless edge hold in steep conditions for precision carving.
