Lib Tech Men's Box Knife Wide 2021

The Box Knife is the perfect all mountain processing unit for high speed jib / park performance. It’s playful, intelligent, stable and self-aware. A perfect balance for whatever the day throws at you. With early rise cambers this “jib” board becomes a secret powder manipulating genius. Yang to the Scratcher’s Yin the Box Knife’s balanced approach keeps riders like Denver Orr / Ted Borland snapping the line of progression while amplifying Jesse Burtner’s backcountry brain waves.

Christina “Pika” Burtner explores brain waves and their connection between lighting fast cerebral synapses and the power of a super computer. When your brain is making decisions before “you” do it calls into question the existence of free will and if that’s the case then just give in and let this Box Knife take over.

Camber Profile:

C3 Camber

Aggressive dominant camber zones out to the contacts combined with mild rocker between your feet. Subtle Banana rocker gives freestyle freedom with maximum end-to-end stability for big, high-speed lines. For aggressive, skilled riders. EJack, Jamie Lynn, and Fredi K's favorite.

Shape:

True Twin

A true twin shape is completely symmetrical. If you cut a true twin in half exactly down the middle you would end up with two identical pieces of board.

This means that the nose and the tail are the same length and the same width and the bindings are centred on the board – i.e. they are equal distances from the centre of the board and the front binding is the same distance from the nose as the back binding is from the tail.

Of course, as you can adjust the width of the position of the bindings you could create a setback stance if you were so inclined but this would be unusual on a true twin given its purpose and might be a strange feel depending on the camber profile (i.e. one foot could end up being over camber and the other over rocker which would probably feel odd).

In addition to this a true twin has exactly the same flex in the nose and tail.
