Fat boy from 12 Boards

I absolutely love the bike and use it nearly everyday.
I’m 67 years old but it’s a bit like going back to having dirt bikes in the mid seventies! Also 12 boards was easy to deal with. A great shop.

Adding another to my collection, best layer for 1st or 2nd layer.

Good quality

Belts are amazing, better price than direct from Exway (Don't deal with Exway) these belts thicker and more durable than the OEM ones too! Highly recommend.

Bent Metal Transfer Men's Snowboard Binding 2026 | Red

Seriously Underrated

These bindings are seriously Underrated, and Bent Metal are now gonna be my go-to bindings for the next few seasons.

I've been riding for 3 decades, and most recently have had Burton Vita's and Cartels, Now's, Joneses, Union Ultras, Nitro Phantoms and Team Pros, Rome Katanas and other stuff I have lost track of.

These Bent Metals have the response and support of a stiffer binding, the dampening to rival my Nitro Phantoms (with that fancy air injected foam and airbag in the heel) and yet are better straps and dampening WITH control, than my Union Ultras - which now, I will be selling.

And they also allow me to move around on board, for when I want to get surfy carvy.

They were not wrong when they said you get dampening AND underfoot feel - with most bindings, you lose one as you gain the other.

You also get the mini disc for microscopic, millimetre perfect stance adjustment.

The straps are super comfy and conform nicely around my boot, crating no pressure points, and the dampening allows my clapped out feet to ride for just that little bit longer, compared to the rest of my binding quiver.

For anyone thinking of these as an outlier potential options to your standard Union Forces or Rome Katanas or Burton Cartels - these are better in many, many ways.

Take the risk, and get yourself a pair!

Great service from twelve board store, lots of communication and superfast delivery, first bracket board Iv had and i love it, nice and stable but with good turning, dad bod wheels are smooth and roll over anything and the blue wheels match nicely to the board for a neat looking outfit, very happy with the loaded board!

Exactly what i orderes

Awesome fit!

This helmet is AWESOME! The perfect fit, easy clasp, and fab colour have made my daily bike commute safe and more fun! There’s a risk buying equipment online however this has exceeded my hopes, PLUS the handy hole for sliding it onto the lock is a great design feature I didn’t;t know I needed. Wishing I had brought the magnetic light to go with it. Would def buy again.

The 2027 Lib-Tech Apex Orca II is the top of the line, ultra lightweight and snappy dream board for Travis Rice. Taking everything you love about the floaty, fun to ride Orca and adding a switch friendly power kink tail, you can have peace of mind when you need to ride out of sketchy situations or land a floaty back one switch or get the needed power and pop to bust a last second ollie over any obstacle in your way. With futuristic looking unidirectional carbon and the all new 'Anti Matter' 3-D tip and tail for less swing-weight, everyones favourite apex predator just evolved into its final form.

* Due to the volume shift on this board, we recommend you ride this board 3-6cm shorter than your normal board. *

Board Type: Freeride-Powder

Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders.

Powder snowboards are designed for deep snow. Generally these boards feature a directional shape with a tapered tail for better float and ease of riding.

Flex: 6/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)

Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding.

Ability Level: Advanced

Advanced snowboards are stiffer and more responsive, designed for high-speed control, precision riding, and handling challenging terrain or tricks.

Shape: Tapered Directional

A tapered directional snowboard features a shape where the tail is narrower than the nose, providing enhanced control and stability in deeper snow. This design improves floatation in powder and allows for smoother turns, making it ideal for freeride and backcountry riding. While it excels in one direction, the taper helps the board naturally guide you through challenging conditions.

Camber Type: Orca C2x Directional

Lengthened camber in the nose and tail with a shortened rocker in the nose offers extreme control, precision, and float all over the mountain.

Width: Standard

Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.

Inserts: 2x4 Inserts

These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.

Board Construction

Topsheet: Eco Sublimated Bio Beans Topsheet

This topsheet is made using an eco-friendly sublimation and adhesive that are both strong and environmentally friendly.

Laminate: Unidirectional Carbon, 30° Carbon Mega X, Magnesium Techno Fiber Bands

Light and strong carbon fiber running tip to tail offering stiffness, pop, and power. The addition of 14 strands of Carbon fiber 30° creates a more torsionally rigid board and high magnesium contend glass fiber offers more tensile strength without being too heavy.

Core: TP - Techno Pop Construction Core

The lightest, most environmentally nice, and liveliest construction Lib Tech makes. Made of 30% Aspen, 25% Paulownia, and 45% Recycled PET Plastic Bottles.

Sidewall: Birch Internal, UHMW Sintered Sidewall

Durable, high-impact ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene. It delivers exceptional impact resistance, superior resilience, and a smooth, damped ride.

Base: Sintered Knife Cut Base

This base is made of a fast sintered material with a die-cut base to reduce waste.

Additional Features:

  • Magne-Traction

Seven strategically placed serrations along the edges of the board grip onto the snow and hold a strong edge in any condition.

  • UHMW Tip/Tail Impact Deflection

By removing the edge around the nose and tail and replacing it with UHMW material, you no longer need to worry about running your nose and tail into objects and damaging the edge. This makes it easy to repair and reduce swing weight.

  • Lightweight Spin Slim

By tapering the tip and tail of the board you get a board that is lighter and offers less swing weight.

  • Anti-Matter

3-D carbon reinforced and spin weight reducing absence of material in the tip and tail.

LIB TECH ORCA II & GOLDEN ORCA

Lib Tech 2027 Snowboard Collection

Lib Tech snowboards are built by Mervin Manufacturing in Sequim, Washington — the only major snowboard company still handmaking boards in the United States. While every other major brand shifted production to Asia, Lib Tech stayed. The result is tighter quality control, faster innovation, and boards built by the same riders who test them in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest. The 2027 Lib Tech range at Twelve Board Store includes the T-Rice Orca II, T.Rice Apex Orca II, T.Rice Golden Orca, Lib Rig, and DPR — covering everything from progressive all-mountain freeride to freestyle performance. Every board carries Lib Tech's patented Magne-Traction® edge technology, eco-responsible construction, and the handmade quality that only comes from the last snowboard factory still operating on American soil.
At Twelve Board Store we've been selling Lib Tech for over 20 years. Our team has ridden these boards in Australia and overseas — if you need help choosing the right board for your riding style, call us on 03 9421 2293 or visit us at 435A Bridge Road, Richmond.
