i have been a riding libtech/gnu sense 92' ive had atleast 7 mervin boards up untill they went magnatrac "not a fan" althought the bran New "Attack Banana limited" is prob the sickest board i have riden, it has the best of everything being you can do park,rails,jumps,glades,pow,groomers,backbowls & deep powder and the 159cm rides and floats like its a bigger board but still rips like a smaller freestyle board. its got dialed down version of magnatrac, banana tech,ec2 tech
i am also a big fan of neversummer boards and have had my fair share of these as well threw out the years, i think both NS/Lib are the best all around boards to rip big mountain type terrain. we just spent the last two weeks ripping 50" of fresh up in the mountains and cant wait for the temps to get a bit better to get back up in the POW.
