Almost every snowboarder knows someone or has seen someone on the mountain carrying two dangerous harpoons. We’ve observed them affixing a snowboard to each foot. Mike Wilson, Jamie Pierre, and Tory Bland helped us design some narrow ass snowboards specifically tailored to the needs of these harpooners.

NEW! Lib Tech’s experiMENTAL division presents: The reCURVE! Mike Wilson, Jamie Pierre and the Lib Tech ExperiMENTAL division are proud to introduce the reCurve Magne-Traction, camber/rocker combination. reCurve NAS are designed to give you the float of rocker in the pow and crud and liveliness and performance edge hold of camber on hardpack and ice. The rockered tips pre initiate turns and integrate smoothly into the cambered body of the ski as it is pressed out into an arc during a turn. Shorter contact increases edgehold. The reCURVE rides short and agile on hardpack and floats long and easy in pow and crud.

TIM DUTTON WINS KIRKWOOD FWT
Tim Dutton just won the Subaru North American Freeskiing Championships at Kirkwood, CA while skiing on the LIB Tech Freeride NAS!
Timy decided to focus on big mountain skiing a few years ago.  He just turned 22, and finally got his chance to show his skills.  When the World Freeride tour came to Kirkwood, California  Timy was initially told he couldn't get in.  Two weeks before the event he got an e-mail saying he'd been given a spot to compete.  In typical Timy fashion he didn't make a big deal of it.  He just showed up, won $5,000, and walked away.

NAS WINS 2 SKIER'S CHOICE AWARDS!

THE reCURVE: Grabbing onto the year’s biggest innovation in ski shape, the ReCurve combines slight camber underfoot with rocker in the tip and tail. When the camber is flexed, the rocker is accentuated. Equipped with Magne Traction, the camber translates into a solid ride when snow is firm as well.
 
POW NAS: A fat “dead tree” cored ski, the Jamie Pierre-designed Pow NAS is a perfect everyday ride for places like Mount Baker, where the snow piles deep. Sandwich construction, polyurethane sidewalls, and Magne Traction round out
the features.

I was in San Francisco for the weekend attending the Icer Air Exhibition. They set up a hip jump that had a Catapult on the in run, for everyone to get the proper speed. Pretty crazy shredding in the BAY area.-CjA
