Lib Tech's all terrain freestyle snowboard specific geometries met with overwhelming success in '09 board tests...Banana Tech- "rocker between your feet" -- and Magne-Traction -strategically located serrated edges- are revolutionary departures from traditional ski based, one pressure point, camber snowboard designs...Both designs are premised on the fact that snowboarders ride with two feet on one board in a wide, stable freestyle stance...Magne-Traction improves edgehold, and Banana completely reworks the snowboard pressure map...full edge contact is maintained but edge pressure is now focused between and at your feet, the board is pre-bent into a natural turning arc and the tips and tails are less weighted for lift, deflection and catch free jib insanity...Banana-Mag snowboards are easier to ride everywhere for everyone... The Future is Bananas! * Banana Tech lets you stomp your rocker flat, giving you full tip to tail edge contact, board control and pop. * Naturally pre-bent rockered mid-section gives you carving and ice biting edgehold. * Firm tip and tails add pop, stability and float easily in powder.

porters i need help! rome 390 boss or flux rk30?

[PortersLars]

@sk8border95 what type of terrain are you going to be riding more? the Urethane highback is amazing but its better for park riding while the Rome will be able to handle the park and outside park equally as well.

[sk8border95]

@PortersLars well i ride a lot of park but i also like to hit the runs on those fresh pow days

[PortersLars]

@sk8border95 I would point you towards the 390 boss first over the Flux.
