Lib Tech Son Of Birdman Snowboard 2026
Overview
The Son of Birdman is a versatile and powerful snowboard inspired by the classic Birdman shape. This directional board features a long and low rockered nose for effortless floatation and a directional camber profile for added pop and control. Its big silhouette is perfect for taller riders, and gives it a nice versatile profile that is very stable at speeds and is just as comfy in the backcountry as it is ripping the park.

- Tlingit held a spiritual connection with all things, humans, animals, and the earth were all alive with spirit. Since time immemorial, Shamans were able to bridge a connection between spiritual realms, and were powerful healers for our people. A soul catcher was used to bring a lost soul back to the physical realm to heal.

Features
Original Power Plus Construction (OP+) - 75% Aspen, 25% Paulownia - light, environMENTALLY nice, and strong.
Bi-axial Fiberglass - This 2-way fiber orientation is engineered to provide maximum snap while decreasing chatter.
Tri-axial Fiberglass - This 3-way fiber orientation is engineered to increase snap and decrease vibrations for a smoother, more stable ride.
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.
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.
Traditional Edges (No Magne-Traction) - Powder-specific boards don't necessarily need Magne-traction because they are generally much wider than standard snowboards.
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.
