The Lib Tech Golden Orca Snowboard, Union Falcor Snowboard Binding, and Union Reset Pro Snowboard Boot make up an all-mountain snowboard package where the board, binding, and boot all ride stiff. That match moves pressure from the boot through the binding to the board's serrated Magne-Traction edges, which grip on ice and hardpack. A Hybrid C2 rocker and camber contour and a directional shape with a switch-friendly nose keep the board versatile from groomers to powder. What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"Stiff gear usually punishes me on landings, but the bushings in the binding and the boot soak up the impact, so what I notice is edge hold instead of rattle. That's why I'd put an advanced rider who isn't at expert level yet in this package: the precision is there, and the beating isn't."
