The Lib Tech Golden Orca Snowboard is the ultimate freestyle evolution of the beloved Orca, merged with Travis Rice's elite high-performance snowboarding dreams. This power predator in both directions features a long floaty nose that loves pow and a directional C2 contour that rips through resort terrain, trenches hardpack carves, and blasts off mountainous side hits. The brand new long floaty switch-friendly power kink tail rides short powerful and poppy on hardpack but floats like a dream through switch freestyle takeoffs and landings. With its golden power beast manifestation, this snowboard is perfect for riders who want to dominate any terrain.
Key Features:
- Directional C2 contour for superior performance in all conditions.
- Long floaty nose for effortless powder riding.
- Brand new long floaty switch-friendly power kink tail for powerful poppy turns.

Where do I start with this deck? First off I would have to say it's the best big mountain all mountain board I have ridden in 33 seasons! C2X is the best hybrid profile/bend on the market because it has more pop and power vs. traditional camrock. The shaping is the most twin of the Orca series so switch and... Read more
Ideal for
- Handmade in the USA by snowboarders for decades.
- Best shaping (C2X profile, directional twinish and Magnetraction) for an all mountain board via the man himself, Travis Rice.
- High end construction with volcanic basalt and a ludicrously fast plaid speed base.
Not ideal for
- Not the best rail or box board but it likes air.
- Not the most stable at speed on hardpack but full camber doesn't float like this.
- Price is appropriate but high.

This is my favorite board I have ever owned. Hands down. If you like to get sendy in the sidecountry/backcountry/off trail, this is your stick. This board is made for pushing your boundaries, with a fairly agressive hybrid profile and a mid stiff flex. 180s, 540s, 900s, 1260s? Have no more fears of landing switch in the deep stuff only...

Ideal for
- Fresstyle POW slayer in BOTH directions.
- Powder hounds that like to keep it funky with sidehits and an occasional lap throught the park.
- Deep snow freestyle.
Not ideal for
- This board is fairly stiff and agressive. NOT for beginners,
- This is a volume shifted board. Meant to be ridden shorter than a "normal" snowboard.
- This board is not a park board.

This progressive board profile allows you to maneuver the mountain effortlessly in any condition. Magnatraction makes the edge hold on ice or crud. I had a chance to ride in deep snow in Utah. It was amazing. I rode it again in California. It handled all the ice under the powder, and as the groomers got tracked up, it handled... Read more
Ideal for
- It is like a Swiss Army knife. It has all the tool necessary to complete the job on the mountain.
- It best for intermediate to advanced riders who don’t want anything to hold them back from progression
- Top of the line technology provides a board with capability to do anything
Not ideal for
- Price
- No other colors?
- More twin than the Orcha

Working with Kat was great! She made the decision process super easy. She made videos of her recommendations and explained the reason behind each recommendation. It was clear that she has the experience to back up her recommendations, and this made me feel comfortable knowing that I was getting the right equipment. we were able to select a new snowboard, bindings and boots that my wife will be getting for Christmas… Thank you, Kat!

Leo was fantastic!
5 /5
Leo curated the appropriate gear for my needs. He provided 2-4 options of skis, boots, bindings, and poles, which allowed me to choose. He was knowledgeable in comparisons and answering my many questions. He made purchasing gear easy, no pressure, and stress free, which buying the right gear for the right price usually is overwhelming for me. Curated was affordable and better priced then other online competitors, I like the return policy, and Leo's willingness to work with me throughout the process to ensure the best set up of gear. I would definitely recommend Leo and curated! I can't wait for some pow to test out the gear.

I've ordered from curated before and had a phenomenal experience. I've been looking to upgrade my gear to increase my skills and David helped find the perfect match of what i'm looking for. He answered any and all questions with not just information about the ski's themselves, but personal opinion which I really appreciated. Looking forward to riding this setup this upcoming season.

Kat was so much fun to talk to, and offered amazing advice. She even gave a video explaining everything she selected and why. Answered my questions, and even watched the items I wanted until I could decide I really wanted them! This was a great experience and I will definitely come back to Kat if I need help in the future.

Better than shopping in a store!
5 /5
I have been looking for skis for this upcoming winter, but honestly, i'm a rookie & had some (alot) of questions. I wanted to learn a little about what gear was recommended to me, and why it was selected- not because I didn't trust it- but, because I like to understand the thought process that goes into it! It's just the way I process things. But, Thomas was patient & happily explained everything to me. I also am horribly inconsistent with my response times, and regardless of when I messaged, he always responded in a matter of minutes. I feel like sometimes when I go shopping in person and someone is helping me, I feel pressured to take their recommendation, and like I have to buy something- so using curated was a lot more appealing to me, and I cannot recommend it enough!

5 /5
Mad respect for Chris who went the extra mile to find me the perfect fit. Every recommendation was followed up with a thorough comparison of all my options and what made them stand out from each other. He even recorded videos, dude. Really, what more could you ask for. And still he’s not the type to try to convince you that somethings great. He just offers up all the facts to let you sit back and feel things out for yourself. Super friendly, reassuring, and will never leave you hanging. I came back to Chris for new recommendations after ghosting him for an entire season and it felt like picking up where you left off with an old friend. Super knowledgeable about the sport and how certain brands will cater to your riding style. Really appreciated that he didn’t recommend the same style of board over and over from different brands. Since he tossed up boards that had a lot of differing features he helped me find something I hadn’t considered before and taught me so much about snowboarding along the way. So if you’re looking for something that will set you apart from the rest, Chris has your back. I ended up going with his top choice for me and I couldn’t be more jacked. Will definitely be coming back for advice down the line, and can’t wait to let him know how much his pick shreds this winter. Cheers mate!
