Great board overall
This board gets the job done, it holds it edge well on the groomers and it’s a lot of fun in the park. Lib tech is the goat

FREESTYLE / ALL MOUNTAIN - TWIN
20 years of Skate Banana!
”It feels like yesterday that we turned snowboarding upside and elevated the fun meter to include an entirely new “hybrid’ rocker camber category with this sweet, grippy, slippery good times all terrain plantain.” - Pete Saari
“The rocker between your feet counterintuitively fulcrums tip and tail pressure to your contacts creating a dynamic camber and stability on hard pack and pure float in the pow” - Mike Olson
“The Magne-Traction® serrated edges with the grippiest teeth between your feet add knobby tire moto mountain bike edge hold and control in the soft pack and act like little grippy mini precision ice skates on firm snow and ice.” - Steven Cobb
Since we launched it, the Skate Banana has won countless contests, awards, stacked NBD clips, prevented over 15000 scorpions, inspired countless imitation variations and miles of smiles.
If you are new to the game, the skate banana is the most fun, user friendly, resort minded, ATV freestyle board ever to hit the slopes. Our 20 year model stays true to the original revolutionary award winning “Banana Tech” rocker/camber hybrid contour that redefined modern snowboard design. This fun, easy to ride, high performance dream stick rips hardpack, carves ice, jibs, and floats effortlessly in powder. Loaded with features like an FSC® certified Aspen/Paulownia core, sintered knife cut base, Magne-Traction® serrated edges, this is the perfect board to progress on whether you are just getting started, know the game and love good times or are a pro like Brandon Reis stacking clips.

This board rips everything from the park to deep powder! The banana technology makes this board super fun and playful anywhere you take it. Jibs like a king, carves with great edge hold, and blasts off side hits with loads of pop. Super surfy on slashes and really feels like a skateboard on snow. Match a soft/medium binding with it, set back just a tad, and you are set!

Board can float in the powder and also handle a decent amount of flex. My banana can mob and still hit the park. Board has never disappointed and is always fire.

This snowboard lived up to the hype and then some. I took it out to the Rockies for the first time this month and I could not have had a better time. I would highly recommend the Skate Banana it provided me an unforgettable snowboarding experience and I can’t wait to go snowboarding on it again!
