2020 Lib Tech Snowboards

This post is a quick overview of all the 2020 Lib Tech snowboards.

First let's take a look at any new boards for the 2019-20 season, and any 2018-19 boards that aren't returning. 

Then I'll look at each board and put them into the categories where I see them best fitting. 

2020 Lib Tech Snowboards

New 2020 Lib Tech Snowboards

The new boards for 2019-20 are: 

  • Lib Tech T.Ras - Looks like it's pretty much identical to the T.Rice Pro but just in a size that the T.Rice Pro isn't available in (159) - and with a different graphic. Comes in just one size.
  • Lib Tech BRD - Essentially the non-split version of the Split BRD. It's a C3 camber Freeride board
  • Lib Tech Dynamo - New C3 Camber freeride board
  • Lib Tech MC Snake Kink - New C3 Camber freeride board
  • Lib Tech Jamie Lynn Short Wide  - New C3 Camber short/wide board (as the name would suggest!)
  • Lib Tech Litigator  - New Ultra Long C3 Camber freeride board. Breaking the trend of going short/wide, it comes in one size, that Lib Tech decided to measure in feet rather than cm (5'7" - aka 170cm). 
  • Lib Tech Magic BM  - this replaces the outgoing Banana Magic - but it's a little different, having a 1" setback, being a little wider and with a shorter contact length. 
  • Lib Tech Glider - New women's Banana rocker freestyle board, essentially a women's equivalent of the Skate Banana
  • Lib Tech No.43 - New Women's C2X All-Mountain-Freestyle board - close equivalent to the TRS
  • Lib Tech Cortado - New Women's C2 freeride board - women's equivalent of the Cold Brew 
  • Lib Tech Dynamiss - New C3 Camber freeride board - women's equivalent of the Dynamo

2019 Lib Tech Snowboards Not Returning 

The 2019 boards that won't have a 2020 model: 

  • Lib Tech TRS Firepower - still offered in the standard Horespower version, but the FP option has dropped out for 2020
  • Lib Tech Banana Magic - replaced, with some tweaks, by the Magic BM
  • Lib Tech Attack Banana 
  • Lib Tech Lando Phoenix 
  • Lib Tech World's Greenest Snowboard 
  • Lib Tech Dough Boy Shredder 
  • Lib Tech Lost Lib Jamie Lynn Mayhem Colab 
  • PLUS various "narrow" sizes of the Skate Banana, TRS & Cold Brew - now replaced by women's specific boards 

All 2020 Lib Tech Snowboards by Category

Lib Tech's 2019-20 boards have been categorized below. This is according to the SnowboardingProfiles.com categoies which won't necessarily be the same as how Lib Tech classifies them.

Of course these are broad categories - every board is different - but this is a rough guide. 

NOTE: Lib Tech previously didn’t do men’s and women’s boards like other companies – rather they had shorter, narrower sizes of some of their boards. But for 2020 they have brought in some women's specific models.

Summary

So there you have the 2020 Lib Tech snowboards. 

Quite a few changes going on with a number or exiting boards, even more new boards, and an introduction of a women's specific line, which Lib Tech haven't done in the past. 

C3 Camber was the biggest mover, with 6 of the 11 new boards featuring C3. That's somewhat offset by 3 C3 camber models exiting, but still an overall trend towards more camber, which I've noticed is the case in the snowboard industry as a whole, at the moment.
