This is the 151cm Fiction, GNU’s freestyle and park board, in the women’s fit. Mervin lists it with: Directional twin all-mountain shape: Provides anapproachable design for freestyle progression and easy riding across varied terrain; Original Banana hybrid contour: Combines rocker between the feet with mild camber at tip and tail for catch-free progression, pop, stability, and control; Magne-Traction serrated edges: Deliver predictable edge control and enhanced grip on icy and variable snow conditions.
Length is the first thing to get right on a snowboard – it is matched to rider weight and boot size, not to height alone, and a board cut at 151cm rides differently from the same model two sizes up. Mervin also notes: G Lite 1 wood core: Made from FSC poplar and paulownia for a lightweight, strong, and lively ride. Check the size chart against your own weight before ordering.
Lib Tech and GNU are both Mervin Manufacturing brands. Mervin has been building snowboards since the 1970s and runs a zero-hazardous-waste production process it has made central to how it operates.
