Hey guys and girls, help support the channel by using the links in the description. It makes a big difference and helps me focus more on making videos, thanks and happy shredding!
great video!! Thanks! I'm totally non biased regarding what board I buy, and I am looking for the best board for the way I ride. I would consider myself an advanced rider, but I don't do much park. I need a board that is stiff enough that feels stable at fast speeds, but I still love doing butters and side hits ALL the time. I've been researching for weeks and this is one of the best videos I've seen. Do you know anything about the Jones mountain twin? If so, Which would you choose for buttering and stability at high speeds? Thanks!
Thank you for clarifying the standout features for these Lib Tech boards. I've spent hours on evo trying to figure out what would best suit me. Longer vids like these are the best btw. The more detail the better
@@ChrisEyres If there's any Orcas left in Whistler by November, that would be the ultimate choice. I want something that's going to perform well in powder but won't suffer as an All Mountain board. Mervin boards really do seem like they're in a league of their own.
Bought a skunk ape last season love it as a guy who has big feet and was booting out on most rental/demo boards. I also picked up an orca for this season absolutely stoked to take it out on a powder day!
I've got the stump ape 162. It is the Widest board I have ever ridden. you can carve so deep that your face will be inches away from the snow and you won't boot out. I am 6 ft 2" with size 12 feet 200 lbs. This is My all time favorite board. Turns super quick and lands EVERYTHING. super stable. So hyped on this board!
That’s exactly what I did. Rode it for the first time on an indoor slope a couple weeks ago and it was sick. Can’t wait to get it out on the mountain this winter.
Can you guys make a video on stance and where the bindings should be and or show the advantages of the different settings/stance being further front or back ....
No Climax? It’s such a rad board! I love mine! Lib Tech was a company I bought my first board from in the early 1990’s, I’ve been a loyal owner ever since of that company
@@ChrisEyres not only did I do the link below thing. But I used the end section to link both of your channels and video. If anyone wants a sneak peek at the Gnu top sheets send them over to me lol. The shout out to ya starts after 7:35 Here is the link ua-cam.com/video/lKrIAKWKWWk/v-deo.html
It's refreshing to find knowledgeable sales guys. Well done! Maybe you can suggest a new board for me. Looking for a POW board. I currently ride a Jamie Lynn C2 and tend to prefer it to my TRS. Both are 156/157 and I"m 5'11" 170-180#'s, and an expert rider. Tried C3 as well and it's awesome when you're hard charging and really driving the board, but C2 is more stable and allows you to kick back and ride the board without constantly having to drive it. Riding a lot of powder and my boards just don't have the necessary float when it gets deep so I need to add a dedicated powder board to the quiver. Looking for directional, set back stance (probably), wider nose/narrower tail, but I haven't had the chance to try a short/fat pow board yet. What would you recommend? Possibilities I'm considering include the Orca, Mullair, Hovercraft, Storm Chaser and others.
Good question. I have the storm chaser and love it in the trees but it really suffers on big mountain. We just rode down a volcano the other day and it was hard work. The orcas are great but my friends have had some issues with delamination. The mullair looks great though I've tried it, they also have an orca mullair called the funguy that you should check out. I've tried the hovercraft a couple times and really like it. Great for powder and carving, fast speeds. Would def give you the float your looking for
@@ChrisEyres Thanks for the reply and the recommendation. As I understand it, the more traditional longer boards are better in the chop and hard charging, whereas the short/fat boards give more of a surfy, playful feel, and may be better in the trees. This makes me lean towards an Orca or Hovercraft, but I'll have to try a short/fat board to see how I like it. My buddy's got a Hovercraft and last time we were riding deep pow I had to struggle to stay afloat but it was a breeze for him. That's what finally made me decide I needed a pow board. He offered to let me try his and I should have taken him up on it so I'll do that. Being in W Washington, I'm confident if I had a problem with a Lib board they'd take care of it. I'd love to find an GNU Impossible to pick up as well. That board rocks!
Chris Eyres about 2 and a half hours south of Whistler in Washington. Baker is my home mountain but I ride 10-15 days a year in Whistler, hoping for more this year
I'm wondering how the t rice pro compares to the jones mountain twin for 2020. Do they perform similarly in the park? Similar flex? Both sound pretty stable at speed.
thats a good question, i havent ridden the mountain twin myself, but i know the t rice very well, its a fantastic all round board for sure, no complaints. it seems to do everything about 7 or 8/10
Hey guys, awesome video! ..Im 185 and 6' feet... feet size 13 US. mostly riding resort, groomers, bit of carving and bit of pow, when its possible. You think the Stump Ape would be a good choice for me, or even Orca? THNKS!!!!
Not too much, does depend on the brand values etc. Burton's edge tech: Frostbite, was recently voted worst... But if you don't need it, then it doesn't matter. Conversely Lib Tech has the most aggressive, which most people like but some find too much. So I think it can depend on where you are riding
Hi Chris. I like the T Rice Pro HP blunt version. Would you recommend it for all mountain but learning freestyle elements spins, jumps some butters maybe or should I get something softer like gnu headspace? I am early intermediate rider I rode Assassin 2016 model and felt great on it. I actually like the new Assassin and Huck knife pro. Which board from the 4 I have mentioned would you recommend? Thanks. Great videos
Thanks! Yes I'm editing the GNU atm, will have Capita, Nitro, Burton and Jones. So many good boards for Whistler, you looking for a charger or a more playful board?
@@ChrisEyres Thanks for replying man! more playfull, we get mixed conditions in NZ so it's got to handle choppy crud too! I got size 12's so need a good wide.
Hi Andreas, i appreciate your videos. I got the Cold Brew last season as a total beginner with the Salomon District HPS bindings and a Salomon Hi Fi Boot. Could you maybe tell me what you think about this setup because I have the feeling it just does not go well together in the first place. Also i think it Is really targeted for freeriding rather than learning and the Cold Brew does not really like being on the slopes most of the time. It is stiff and hard to initiate turns on, i think. I got the feeling, the local store I went to, really just wanted to sell me the most expensive setup they had rather than giving me something according to my needs. Super frustrating ..Again, Thank you so much for these kinds of videos.
I wanna see the short and fat. Is it good for powder? And how is it in the park, Rails/ big jumps? How will this wide surface influence my airtime, may if there is wind i dont land anymore..?
Would I be correct in saying that the Ejack Knife is the c3 camber instead of the c2 that the video says? If that is the case is that why the magnatraction is more mellow? Also do you think the Lib Tech Ejack Knife or the GNU Mullair would be better for a intermediate rider? Thanks for any advice anyone sends my way.
I've been riding a banana for the last 5 years, in that time I have moved from a beginner to an intermediate, I am looking for something a bit more stable at speed but also still allow me the forgiveness of a rocker. I am after directional as I typically just ride resort, I stay away from the park. I am weighing up between the Cold Brew or the Orca, any thoughts? I'll be in Whistler for my 3rd visit from the UK at the end of January.
I have lived here on and off for ten years! I work in the summer and do videos in the winter. I was working with snowboardprocamp until I blew my knee out a couple seasons ago
I'm 6'3" tall, 190lbs, size 14 boot. I'm new to snowboarding but im descent on a wake board so im catching on quick. What snow board, boots and bindings do you recommend?
It is really up to you. But get a wide board for sure. 14s are obviously pretty big but there a lot of great wide boards out there. for boots you really have to go into a store and try some on, don't just buy online. Find a comfy pair and just hang out in them as long as you can, 10 minutes, an hour, a day. Whatever they will let you do and if they still fell comfy then go for it
Hey Chris and Andreas... I am 6'0 and 180lbs.. which size of the orca would you recommend? 153 or bigger? and maybe a question for andreas.. how it the orca compared to the yes 20/20? edgehold / floating etc.
Looking for a board that's nimble through the trees floats in the pow can lay a hard carve and land jumps with stability I'm 6foot with size 12 foots and weigh 220
Ended up with a burton flight attendant , I own three pairs of est bindings and feel obligated to ride a channel board . One year I will break that trend !
They are both well made snowboards! I have tried neither so I don't really have much of to say, I would go box knife personally, c3 profile, but not sure why they went with sintered base on the scratcher and the "eco sublimated sintered" on the knife.
great video. Quick question about the Cold Brew, im about 185 lbs, 5'10". Size 10 boots. Which size do you think would be best? I was thinking a 159 would be best but it doesn't come in that size. Thanks!
@@joseboardtista68 ohhhh, I'm prob not the best guy to ask, but out of these I would go for the cold brew. It's cheaper than most here and it got their c2 camber, so kinda forgiving, plus magna traction for any icy stuff he might encounter
Hey Chris + Andreas, great video thanks for this. I ride a T. Rice Pro (2015) and have been riding 2008 Cartels on them (still!). I need some new bindings and mostly ride off piste/backcountry, trees, and groomers, and almost 0 park. Looking for something as or more responsive/aggressive as my old Cartels. So what should my new setup be for my TRP -- Malavitas? Genesis? Genesis X? Union Force? Union Falcor? Union Atlas? Rome Katana? Now Drive? Help!
Bindings, my only weakness. Andreas and I both ride Now Drive, he has for the last few years and swears by then, hence why I (and Kevin) both have them. Andreas' riding sounds similar to yours, no park... They have that Skate Tech Technology to help turn, I think it kinda works but need to try some without to really get the feel cause I'm used to them. Hopefully Andreas sees this and can give you his two cents. Good luck
Hope I can work something out, Comor Snowboards has the ones I've done already plus Nitro (should be up tomorrow), Yes and Capita. I would love to get more hands on with the brands you mentioned, have to reach out to a different shop
Hey there My name is Pascal I'm 183cm and my weight is 87kg or 171 lbs I'm interested in buying a skunk ape I'm an all mountain rider but love the powder and riding fast on and off the track What could you tell me is a good size and board for me Is the skunk ape something to buy for me
Hi, thanks for the message. The skunk ape is a good board but not my favorite. It is however a great option for people with wide feet. What is your foot size? I have had toe and heel drag before and it's a pain.
You could ride either. Travis Rice is about 200lbs and rode the 53, so you could def go for the 47 and it would be great. But if you are looking for extra float or the mountains you ride aren't very steep then maybe the 53 but I would lean towards 47. Hope this helps
@@ChrisEyres idk i have it and dont rly know about it too much, i bought it cause im shorter and it was in 146 size, and i liked the profile and shape of it
@@jakubkost7330 not sure what year model you got but this year's looks cool, for the libtech style. Their website says it's a scaled town trice, which was my daily driver last year, and I have really enjoyed it.

Hi, thanks for the message. The skunk ape is a good board but not my favorite. It is however a great option for people with wide feet. What is your foot size? I have had toe and heel drag before and it's a pain.
i'm 5'6, 160lbs, should i get a 147 for the orca? or 153?
You could ride either. Travis Rice is about 200lbs and rode the 53, so you could def go for the 47 and it would be great. But if you are looking for extra float or the mountains you ride aren't very steep then maybe the 53 but I would lean towards 47. Hope this helps
@@ChrisEyres Thank's Chris, you're awesome!
@@ChrisEyres Hey Chris what's a good setup with the orca? any recommended bindings/boots? Thank's man!
Skunk ape is the board for me I’m fat with a 13 boot.
I’m glad you know exactly what you want!
Where is the skate banana???????????

Chris I've missed you where have you been!!
Absence makes the heart grow fonder! I've been taking a break, but back with a vengeance
Think he just got out of jail for somthing
Any thoughts on the JL short fat?
I haven't been able to see that up close yet but looks like a fun board
No double dip?
Banana Magic BM ?????!!!!!
Sorry no Banana Magic here
TRS?
Didn't have every board as it's just transitioning from biking up here.
where the wayfinder
Out here with us in Japan: great board for powder, hard on pump tracks in the trees. That was our impression!
What about the Skate Banana?
I was told by @bananadude we weren't allowed
No TRS!?!?!
No rocket?!
What about t.ripper?
We just covered what was in store unfortunately, but it's a mini t rice no?
@@ChrisEyres idk i have it and dont rly know about it too much, i bought it cause im shorter and it was in 146 size, and i liked the profile and shape of it
@@jakubkost7330 not sure what year model you got but this year's looks cool, for the libtech style. Their website says it's a scaled town trice, which was my daily driver last year, and I have really enjoyed it.
