So today I was up at alta I saw somone with what looked to be rockered Lib Tech skis.  They looked pretty sweet.  It makes snse since Lib Tech is one of the only snowboard companies to make a rockered snowboards.  Has anyone else heard about these or have pics or details?

Well, it makes sense to me... because the edge technology increases grip... so a rockered ski would be good because you'd [supposedly] be gtting more grip wit hthe little surface area you have

but they don't call their skis "skis"... they call them "narrow ass snowboards" so it would technically be allright if they did it.

I'm pretty sure their new pow skis use the "banana technology".  And their skis are legit.

haha its the other way around if anything, skis own the rocker design, i guess its the one thing we are ahead in.

id think that a rockered snow board would stay rockered when you stand on it, just push it flat
