2027 Lib Tech Mayhem Rocket Snowboard
The 2027 Lib Tech Mayhem Rocket is Matt Biolos' surf-inspired all-mountain directional snowboard built for powerful carving, deep snow, and everything in between. Its Early Rise Directional Camber combines a set-back camber and stance with an easy-initiating, extra-floaty nose and powerful tail for effortless turn entry, strong edge hold, and explosive pop. A new floatier nose shape and mid-wide outline provide plenty of planing surface in soft snow while reducing toe drag through deep carves, and the Directional Elliptical Carving Sidecut keeps the Rocket smooth and powerful on hardpack. With a 7/10 flex, lively Aspen and Paulownia core, and rugged Sintered Knife Cut Base, the Rocket is built to carve hard, float deep, and charge the entire mountain.
