Lib Tech Golden Orca Snowboard—Travis Rice’s powder predator with freestyle precision and float

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"The Golden Orca is the board I grab when I want to charge but also keep it playful. It floats effortlessly thanks to the big nose, but the power kink tail gives it a lively, freestyle feel on takeoffs and landings—even riding switch. On groomers, the C2X profile grips hard and carves beautifully. It feels like the perfect blend of freeride power and freestyle fun."

Who It’s For

Advanced to Expert Freeride and Freestyle Riders:

The Golden Orca is for riders who want a quiver-killer that blends deep snow float with freestyle versatility. It’s built for those who ride aggressively, love carving steep lines, and want the ability to spin and land switch in pow.

What It’s For

Powder, Big-Mountain Freestyle, and All-Mountain Riding:

With its long floaty nose, C2X hybrid camber/rocker, and switch-friendly power kink tail, the Golden Orca dominates powder, steeps, and side hits. It’s equally confident trenching carves on hardpack or launching freestyle tricks in natural terrain. Volume-shifted for shorter sizing, it’s built to ride 1–3cm smaller than your regular board length.

Why We Like It

Float Meets Freestyle Power:

We like the Golden Orca because it blends Travis Rice’s freeride DNA with freestyle creativity. The Firepower construction keeps it lightweight yet lively, while the Magne-Traction edges bite into icy slopes. It feels just as at home in Natural Selection-style big lines as it does cruising your favorite resort.

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.
