Lib Tech Glider 143 Snowboard
Playful and easy to ride - the ultimate board for progression
The Lib Tech Glider is simply fun no matter what, where or when you ride. Whether you're learning your first tricks in the park, surfing powder or carving on the slopes, the Glider has you covered. The Magne-Traction® provides the necessary edge hold, the TNT base supplies you with the necessary speed and the robust construction means the board can take a lot of punishment.
Riding style
All-mountain freestyle for beginners and advanced riders - want to have fun all over the mountain? This board does it all, from park to piste and powder. The design supports you in any terrain and is perfect for constantly improving your skills as quickly as possible.
Shape
The True Twin shape is perfectly symmetrical for a balanced ride that's equally versatile when ridden forward or switch. The Magne-Traction® technology provides improved edge hold with serrated edges. Especially on icy slopes they unfold their full potential.
Profile
The original Banana profile comes with a rocker between the feet and a faint camber under the bindings. This makes it easy to ride and cruise, but also great for jibbing and gliding in deep snow.
Flex
The soft-medium flex is playful and forgiving. While there is also enough pop to allow for controlled freestyle moves.
Construction
The 'original power construction' OP is a very lightweight, environmentally friendly and durable construction design from Lib Tech. The core of Aspen and Paulownia wood is robust with a lot of pop. The base and topsheet are made from eco-sublimated materials and the TNT base is also very fast with low maintenance.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
