Pow-charging performance meets resort precision in the T.Rice Apex Orca II Snowboard
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying
"I've ridden a lot of directional boards, but the Apex Orca II hits different. The Magne-Traction edge hold is no joke — it turns ice into a non-issue. The Orca nose lifts and surfs through soft snow, and then the fish tail snaps you back into control when the terrain gets technical. It's a stiff board that still communicates well underfoot. Travis knew what he was doing when he merged these two shapes."
Who It's For
Intermediate to Advanced All-Mountain and Backcountry Riders
The Apex Orca II suits riders who can hold an edge and want a board that performs from resort groomers to open powder fields and technical backcountry terrain. It rewards committed, precise riding and is built for those ready to push into steeper, more demanding lines.
What It's For
Park, Resort, and Backcountry Terrain
This board is designed to handle it all — groomed resort runs, pillow lines, heli drops, and trench-carving hardpack. The directional shape and Orca C2x contour make it equally at home charging powder as it is ripping resort groomers with precision.
Why We Like It
Techno Pop Carbon Construction with Orca Hybrid Rocker/Camber
The Apex Orca II is built around Lib Tech's Techno Pop carbon construction — lighter, more environmentally responsible, and livelier than conventional builds. The core blends 30% Aspen and 25% Paulownia with 45% recycled PET bottles, wrapped in unidirectional carbon and 30° Carbon Mega X magnesium techno fiber bands. The Orca C2x contour delivers full contact and control in all conditions, with a lengthened camber underfoot and shortened rocker at the nose for lift in soft snow. Magne-Traction serrated edge technology adds grip on hardpack that a standard edge simply can't match. The sintered knife-cut base and eco sublimated Bio Beans top round out a board engineered for riders who want performance without compromise.

High Performance, Environmentally Friendly
Lib Tech is a collective of creative board sports dreamers who have eliminated any barriers trying to inhibit the Lib Tech dream.

Phantom Glide By DPS Skis
This snowboard is compatible with Phantom Glide, the long-lasting base treatment from DPS Skis. Backcountry technicians apply and UV-cure it before the board ships, so it arrives ready to ride with no waxing needed.
How It Works

Applied By Backcountry Techs
Backcountry technicians treat and UV-cure every board in the shop before it leaves the warehouse, so it arrives ready to ride with no setup required.

Glide That Outlasts Wax
Wax sits on top of the base and wears off in a few days. Phantom Glide bonds into the base, so glide stays fast and consistent from cold powder to spring slush.

No More Wax Days
Phantom Glide replaces scraping, ironing, and shop visits with a quick base cleaning using the Phantom Glide Base Care Kit. The formula is made without PFAS.
