LIB TECH COLD BREW 159 – All-Mountain Directional Snowboard

The LIB TECH COLD BREW is a directional all-mountain snowboard with a strong freeride focus while retaining versatile freestyle capabilities. Its shape combines a long, float-oriented directional nose with an updated tail shape. This configuration helps the board float in powder and remain manageable in variable snow, crud and soft spring conditions.

The slightly wider design supports powerful turns while reducing the risk of boot drag during tighter turns. Magne-Traction® technology uses seven strategically positioned serrations along the edges to increase edge hold and control. The COLD BREW also features the C2 Rocker/Camber Hybrid profile: the central rocker contributes to carving, edge hold and float, while the camber sections provide pop, stability and control.

The construction uses an extended wood core made from 60% Aspen and 40% Paulownia, combined with Tri-Ax/Bi-Ax fiberglass. The Eco Sublimated TNT base is designed for fast performance and low maintenance.

Purpose and Use

The COLD BREW is designed for riders looking for an easy-riding, versatile performance snowboard that can be used across different parts of the mountain. Its design combines all-mountain versatility with strong freeride characteristics and freestyle potential.

  • All-mountain riding
  • Freeride and powder riding
  • Variable snow and crud
  • Carving on groomed slopes
  • Freestyle riding and jumps
  • Resort riding and snowboard trips

Who is it for?

The LIB TECH COLD BREW is particularly suited to snowboarders looking for a versatile and relatively easy-to-ride directional board without being restricted to one specific type of terrain.

The combination of the C2 hybrid profile, moderate flex, slightly wider construction and Magne-Traction® technology is designed for riders who want to ride groomed slopes as well as powder, variable snow and freeride terrain. Its freestyle capabilities also keep the board versatile across different riding styles.

Lib Tech

Lib Tech

Lib Tech is an American cult brand for snowboards, skis, and surfboards, regarded as a pioneer and maverick since the late '80s. Founded by Mike Olson and Pete Saari, Lib Tech is known for its unconventional technologies, artistic design, and eco-friendly production. Each product is handmade in the legendary "Mervin Made" factory in Washington, USA, embodying the philosophy of constantly pushing the boundaries of what's possible.

Key Features of Lib Tech Snowboards:

  • Magne-Traction® Technology: This is Lib Tech's revolutionary technology that dramatically improves edge hold on snow and ice. The wavy, serrated edges of Magne-Traction® act like a serrated knife blade, providing additional contact points along the edge, which allows for unparalleled control and stability in hard conditions.

  • C2X Hybrid Rocker/Camber: Lib Tech has found the perfect balance between rocker and camber. The C2X profile combines an aggressive camber underfoot for power and precision with a mild rocker between the bindings for float in powder and a playful feel.

  • Eco-Friendly Manufacturing: Lib Tech places great emphasis on sustainability. They use environmentally friendly materials like Bio-Beans topsheets, recycled sidewalls, and FSC-certified wood cores. The entire production process takes place in the world's most environmentally friendly snowboard factory, which is powered by recycled energy.

  • Original Power Construction (OP): This construction, used in many models, consists of a lightweight wood core and fiberglass laminates. It offers a dynamic, durable, and lightweight performance that is ideal for freestyle and all-mountain riders.

Lib Tech stands for performance based on its own innovation and a spirit that refuses to conform to norms. The brand is the perfect choice for snowboarders seeking a unique and distinctive riding experience.
