Get ready to conquer any backcountry adventure with the Orca Techno C2X Splitboard, the brainchild of legendary snowboarder Travis Rice. This high-tech splitboard reimagines Travis's award-winning directional power fish design into the ultimate backcountry weapon. The Orca boasts a lightweight Paulownia and FSC®-certified Aspen core wrapped in a powerful cocktail of technologies. Unidirectional carbon fiber delivers unmatched stiffness and response, while 30° carbon Mega X and magnesium fiber bands add explosive pop and torsional stability. Eco-sublimated graphics and a rugged, fast sintered base ensure lasting performance and minimal upkeep. The long and floaty Orca nose effortlessly slices through powder, while the powerful poppy tail with "Whale Tail Technology" maximizes splitboard performance and ensures powerful landings. Tight, 7-meter trench-gouging sidecuts provide exceptional carving capabilities on any snowpack. When it comes to size, the Orca is the perfect balance - tuned widths allow you to float through pillows of powder and stomp big drops with confidence, while also eliminating toe drag in variable conditions. The board is short enough to be nimble and lightweight on the ascent, making it a dream to maneuver in technical terrain.
C2X Rocker/Camber Profile - Utilizing a shortened rocker section between your feet, with lengthened camber towards the tip and tail. Mervin's C2X profile provides unrivaled stability and landing gear while maintaining float and precision on powder and hardpack.
Control / Precision / Float
Splitboard Construction (SC) - 5% Aspen, 95% Paulownia. In addition, the tip/tail have been slimmed down to make the board lighter.
Eco-Sub Poly Top Sheet - Sounds technical right? It just means the top sheet is made from sublimated polyester material that's great for vibrant yet durable graphics, which means a long lasting image.
Sintered Knife Cut Base - This highly durable base has excellent wax retention thanks to its high porosity.
Karakoram Ultraclip 2.0 - Redesigned Karakoram Ultra Clips 2.0 are lighter weight, clamp tighter and have a smaller footprint than the original Ultra Clip. They are also adjustable so you can maintain even compression as your splitboard ages.
Mervin Made: EnvironMENTAL Construction - Core materials are sources from fast-growing, renewable forest products. Water-based solvents used for cleansing instead of petrochemical-based solvents. All wood sawdust is recycled as a soil additive, plus scrap wood is donated to a local Mood Wood company that packages it as kindling and resells it.
Handbuilt in the USA - Every Lib Tech board is handmade by snowboarders with jobs in the USA.
1 Year Warranty - Covered under manufacturer warranty for 1 year from the time of purchase. Warranty includes structural defects only and DOES NOT cover impact damage, abuse, misuse or normal wear and tear.
Magne-Traction Serrated Edges - Strategically placed bumps that create added contact points along each edge for increased grip and control in all conditions. Turn ice into powder.
Birch Internal Sidewalls - Rugged, lightweight, vertical end grain Birch internal sidewalls add pop and durability.
UHMW Sintered Sidewalls - A Lib Tech innovation that is twice as sintered as most industry sidewalls. This ultra high molecular weight (UHMW) material increases durability, response and control for easier riding.
