Description
2026 Lib Tech Son of Birdman Snowboard
Inspired by Lib Tech's friends at Trickstar in Japan and the original banana contour Birdman developed by Mike Olson and Steven Cobb, the Son of Birdman puts a modern poppy directional camber spin to a proven favorite stick. The long and low “floatation device” nose with early rise is unsinkable and provides effortless float in soft snow conditions and surfy carving fun in hardpack. A directional camber puts pop and power in the tail and control at your feet. Son of Birdman is a magical compliment to your twin freestyle board and could quite easily replace it. Float past your friends on the cat trip, blast over your homies on the side hit and hack, slice, slash, and spray slush and pow cookies long after it’s tracked out.
