The Lib Technologies T.Rice Pro C2 men’s snowboard is a performance model designed in collaboration with professional snowboarder Travis Rice. It’s designed for riders who want to push their limits with dynamic riding on the slopes, in the snowpark, and in backcountry terrain. It combines stability, powerful pop, precise turn control, and enough versatility for all-day riding. The C2 hybrid profile features a combination of camber underfoot and rocker between the feet. As a result, the snowboard offers an energetic kick, good control at high speeds, and float in softer snow. Magne-Traction® technology improves edge grip on hard and icy surfaces, while the durable Horsepower (HP) construction helps keep the weight low and the ride responsive.
- profile: C2 – hybrid rocker/camber
- Flex: 6/10 (medium-stiff) offers sufficient support and stability with a certain degree of flexibility. It provides good responsiveness when turning and plenty of energy for takeoffs, yet it isn’t so stiff as to feel overly rigid during everyday riding
- Terrain: all-mountain, freestyle
- Twin shape: characterized by a symmetrical design, where the tip and tail of the snowboard have the same shape and, as a rule, the same length. This allows the snowboard to handle equally well when riding forward and in switch (reverse), making it easier to perform freestyle tricks, spins, jumps, and transitions between riding directions
- Rider level: intermediate, advanced
- C2 – hybrid rocker/camber profile: combines a rocker shape in the center of the snowboard with camber zones underfoot. The rocker in the center promotes easier float in softer snow and a playful feel, while the camber underfoot ensures a powerful kick, stability, and precise turn control. This combination enables dynamic riding both on and off-piste
- Magne-Traction® edges: features seven strategically placed corrugations on the steel edges. These create more contact points with the snow and improve grip on hard or icy surfaces. The result is better control in turns and more confident steering of the snowboard in variable conditions
- Horsepower Construction (HP): Designed with an emphasis on light weight, durability, and efficient energy transfer. It combines a lightweight wood core, fiberglass, and durable structural elements that promote stability and a responsive ride
- Wooden Core: consists of 60% aspen and 40% paulownia. This combination offers strength, flexibility, and light weight. It contributes to the snowboard’s quick response, energetic pop, and good control during dynamic riding
- Knife Cut Base: Designed for fast glide and performance riding. It absorbs wax well, which helps maintain glide performance with proper maintenance
- Eco Sublimated Poly Top – top layer: made from poly material with an eco-friendly sublimation print. Sublimation technology allows the graphic design to be transferred directly onto the material’s surface, creating a striking and detailed look. The top layer also protects the snowboard’s construction during normal use
- Birch Internal Sidewalls – internal sidewalls made of birch wood: form part of the snowboard’s construction along its edges. Birch is characterized by strength and durability; it helps transfer forces during turns and contributes to the overall stability of the construction
- UHMW Sintered Sidewalls – sintered UHMW sidewalls: designed for high resistance to wear and impact. They help protect the sides of the snowboard from damage and ensure the construction’s long lifespan even with intensive use
- UHMW Tip/Tail Impact Deflection – tip and tail impact protection: located at the tip and tail of the snowboard. Their purpose is to better distribute and absorb impacts that occur, for example, upon contact with hard snow, ice, or obstacles. They thus help protect the most exposed parts of the snowboard from damage and increase its overall durability
- Reinforcement: biaxial and triaxial fiberglass
