Flex
How easily does this snowboard bend under pressure? A soft flex is great for fun maneuverability while a stiff flex is better for aggressive high speed hill bombing.

I bought this board last year, after finally replacing a board that was over 10 years old. I am absolutely blown away this board handles powder like a champ, and on those days when we don’t have powder, I can rip it up on the corduroy as well. Super impressed. Awesome all around versatile board. NIce work!!!

Alright I've now riden mervin for 30 years. My quiver is 100% mervin and the 2024/25 LIB RIG camber/early rise Is the most stable and confidence inducing board i have ever ridden. I feel so locked in with this board. The early rise makes turning a sweet dream. And the camber, especially at the rear and dig in and pivot or halt to a stop on a dime. I can go faster then I have ever gone and it wants more! I'm not worthy ! Thanks mervin/lib and Austin! DREAM BOARDS!

This boards my favorite in the quiver. Side cuts that rip turns, great pop and a nose that floats anything!
