so i was checking out the libtech skate banana and i think it is sick and it would be super fun to mess around on because it is all rockered out. the whole design makes me want to start snowboarding again i can ride one. its got a reverse camber rocker with the magnetraction. how could you not be stocked on this you could butter everyting

hmm this sounds familiar.... o yea thats because i said the same thing last night in a thread.

i agree though, i was looking through some gear guide and a lot of the boards have magne traction now and other new tech that makes me wanna try them out
 
I got a great explanation by the owner of nu-wave sports, a shop that sponsors my buddy. He said that lib-tech realize that snowboards aren't skis, so they started thinking. When you pop in to your bindings on skis, your weight pushes against the camber, and makes the skis totally flat against the snow. When you strap into a board that is cambered the same way, your feet stay toward the outside ends of the board, and therefore, you don't counteract as much of the camber. With the skate banana, Your feet are still in the traditional position that they would be on a board, but since the camber is reversed, your feet counteract the camber, and you are left with a board that has two full carving edges on the ground.
