In three short years, the Lib Tech T.Rice Orca Snowboard has cemented its legacy as one of the most sought after and capable boards ever made. The Orca is the envy of all-mountain riders and powder hounds alike. Built like an apex predator, the Lib Tech T. Rice Orca Snowboard rides aggressively, with plenty of pop, precision, and stability to devour every inch of your chosen line. Like it’s namesake, the Orca is a most majestic and impressive beast, and this year Lib Tech will be donating a portion of every Orca snowboard sale to the Orca Conservancy and their efforts to combat the extinction of the Salish Sea’s Southern Resident Killer Whales.
