someone made this thread on the e30 forum, figured i’d see what’s up over here

here’s my setups;

![http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v727/Coldaccord/Snowboards.jpg](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v727/Coldaccord/Snowboards.jpg)

On the left;  
This years. Lib tech magne traction 156 w/ Burton Cartel bindings

on the right;  
Last years. Lib tech Dave Lee 156 w/Drake f60’s

you can’t tell from the pic, but the white one has serrated edges. shit is fucking awesome, I will never buy a non-magne traction board again, unless I’m out west where i’d just have a big powder cruiser

Just curious, but does the magnetraction make that much a difference?

Can you still carve on ice with completely detuned edges? Like they claim? And does it affect slides and other shit?

I am j ust curious, because I know LibTech makes a ski now, and I’m pretty interested in hearing more about this. Because with park skis, your edges are typically completely shot after about a week of riding park. And I can’t turn for shit on ice as is.

and i cant find the pic of my board, but it is a nitro 156 metal with burton boots.

I am going to need a new board for next year though, maybe i will join the lib tech group. Especially if the serrated edges provide that much better ice handling.

yea the magne traction really does make a huge difference. you can really put down a carve on ice. i think this is the direction for snowboarding.

pretty much all lib tech, gnu, and roxy (girls boards put out by the same manufacturer; Mervin, as Quicksilver owns all 3 companies) will have magne traction next year

we will be carrying the magne traction skis next season, too.

i’m also a big fan of the new burton cap strap. feels significantly more comfortable. plus you can ride your ankle strap a little bit more loose since the cap strap really holds you in.

next year, for the p1’s, p1 carbon, c60, and c02, they’re going to have the supercap strap, which is a bit different profile, and has a piece that goes underneath also. just holds the boot in even better

plus those bindings will all have gel pads in the heel. ooooh
