Lib Tech T-Rice Orca 2025
This is Travis Rice's one board quiver. From resort groomers to the deepest Japan pow day, the 2025 Lib Tech Orca rides it all. The Lib Tech Orca features a long floaty nose, combined with powerful, poppy contact maximizing short radius "Whale Tail" Technology. A tight 7M trench gouging sidecut. Enough width to allow you to really put it on rail on hardpack with no toe drag and to float pillows like a dream, but still narrow enough to be your daily driver all season long. Take it to Alaska, drop Japan or Canadian pillow lines or blow minds shredding the home resort all season. The 2025 Libtech Orca is a mammal to eat all fish.

Size Guide: Ride it short. The Orca has been designed so you will get all that stability and float of a much bigger board in something 7cm to 10cm shorter than a regular board. The Orca is as wide as a whale. Most average weights between 60kg and 75kg will look at the 153cm, 75kg to 85kg the 156cm and so on.
