The Lib Tech Stump Ape is a wide and short snowboard for the larger man. This powder/resort directional snowboard feels great in the powder and has tons of float. Because the board is wide, you won't have any toe or heel drag even with a larger shoe size. The core is made extra light to provide extra comfort in the chairlift. This board rides 5 to 10 centimeters shorter
Type: Freeride / Powder
Flex: 7 (out of 10)
Construction: horsepower
Profile: C2X
To give the all-terrain boards a perfectly balanced profile, Lib Tech developed the C2 in collaboration with Travis Rice. A mild rocker between your feet with a powerful camber at the tip and tail. Enough pop for the park, precision for the best lines, and float to go wild in the powder. The C2e variation makes the profile a bit more playful, and the C2x adds even more precision.
Shape: directional
A directional board has a nose that is longer than the tail of the snowboard, which provides more control on steep sections and less effort in the powder. The flex of the board is also asymmetrical, with the tail usually being stiffer for better turns and stability. The nose is often made less stiff, allowing for better float. The Stance of the board is positioned more towards the tail, with the amount indicated in inches. Directional boards can be ridden on both sides, but their strength lies in riding the preferred side.
Core: 60% aspen / 40% paulownia
The HP core of Lib Tech consists mainly of aspen, which is a somewhat heavier type of wood. To make the snowboard lighter, there are 2 large strips of paulownia wood in the core.
Glass: tri-ax / bi-ax glass with basalt alloy
Top: eco sublimated bio beans top
Base: eco sublimated TNT
The TNT base from Lib Tech is, according to them, the best base there is. Not because it glides the best, but because it maintains the ease of maintenance of a extruded base while gliding significantly better than a extruded base, moving towards the sintered bases. The base consists of double-laminated fluoro material. Eco sublimated is a very technical story but simply means that this base is made ecologically friendly.
Sidewalls: UHWM sintered / birch internal
UHWM is one of the strongest thermoplastic plastics currently available. This ensures that you don't have to repair your board every time you hit a box, rail, or skis. On the inside of your sidewalls is a thin layer of birch; this type of wood is very strong and flexible, which allows your sidewall to better distribute and absorb the impact's force.
Steel Edge: magne-traction
If you've ever ridden on ice, you know how quickly you can lose control there. Magne-traction cuts through ice and hard snow with 7 wavy bumps. Simply put, your steel edge bites into the ice instead of cutting through it, just like a serrated knife does with bread. But in normal snow on the piste, it provides control and grip, giving you the confidence to maintain speed. You will especially feel this during turns when you apply force or while carving.
