The DPR is a developmental project realized. Lib Co-founder Pete Saari and crew spent 10 years developing the Double Dip to freestyle perfection. The DPR takes all those sidecut, shape, profile and geometry refinements and learnings and applied them to this directional freestyle resort minded dream stick. The DPR is focused making the most of your local resort terrain every day with an eye on agile trenched carving, trick progression, switch landings and ripping pow days when they come your way. The early rise nose is forgiving, initiates turns effortlessly and floats pow. A mild camber brings the board to life and adds powerful pop in the tail. A radial sidecut with mini mag and equal nose and tail widths make this a very user friendly freestyle stick in the park or blasting side hits. Handcrafted at Mervin this is a fine tuned well built modern classic ready to take and make the most out of every turn, hit and line on the mountain all season long.
Flex: 5-6/10
Shape: Directional Twin
Bend: Early Rise Directional Camber - Early rise for catch free freestyle, easy carve initiation & float
Core: 75% Aspen/25% Paulownia Core - Aspen, our favorite FSC certified fast growing, light, lively, strong wood core material. It’s natures fiberglass! Paulownia, fast growing environmentally nicer light and strong and smooth riding wood core material
Fibreglass: Triaxial/Biaxial Fiberglass - Triaxial 0° x 45° x 45° oriented fiber combination creates the perfect balance of torsional responsiveness and overall flex performance. Biaxial 0° x 90° fiber orientation builds in pop, stability, control and forgiveness/ease of ride.
Base: Knife-Cut TNT Base - The highest density UHMW and FASTEST base material without wax. TNT features our unique dual-layer thermal fusion “phase alteration” process which aligns the molecular chains into an engineered crystalline structure. The titanium layer reflects light and heat keeping the base at or near snow temperatures. The crystal layer is the fastest base material without wax making it a very consistent sliding surface in a wide variety of conditions and wax wear lifecycles. Wax to conditions as normal…board will remain fast even as wax wears. TNT produces optimal graphic reproduction with our proprietary water based eco sublimation process. Easy to maintain easy to repair.
