PRODUCT  FEATURES

Mervin Manufacturing is the leading designer and manufacturer of snowboarding and skateboarding products BUILT IN THE USA by people who ride them. Mervin Manufacturing was founded by snowboarders Mike Olson and Pete Saari in 1977. In an industry where virtually every other snowboard company has moved production to China or offshore, Mervin is the longest running and last major snowboard factory in the USA. Based out of Carlsborg, Washington, between the rugged Olympic and Cascade Mountain Ranges, Mervin is a direct link between riding and manufacturing.

The latest innovations to come out of Mervin Manufacturing, specifically Lib Tech’s experiMENTAL division, are Magne-Traction (wiggly edges) and Banana Technology. Designed to maximize control, edgehold and performance with wide sideways stances Magne-Traction is a snowboard specific (two feet controlling one board) design and revolutionary departure from traditional ski based snowboard designs. Magne-traction has received a record 9 Transworld Good Wood awards and 15 Future Magazine awards. Magne-traction makes snowboards work better, easier to ride and opens new levels of high end performance. Magne-traction turns ice into powder.

Banana Technology like Magne-traction before it begins with the premise that a snowboard is not a ski. Banana Technology replaces camber with rocker “banana” between your feet. When you stand on your board, pressure is now applied inward to the edge area at and between your feet as your weight presses out the rocker. The Banana Technology flex pattern is slightly stiffened at the tip and tail to increase pop and stablity on big landings. Magne-Traction is incorporated into the Banana Technology (as it should be on every freestyle snowboard) to improve edgehold and put even more control underfoot at your balance point. The end result is a board that is loose and catch-free, presses boxes, rails and jibs extremely well with the preset rocker, maintains pop with a stiffened tip and tail, and turns easily on hardpack when the built in rocker is put on edge. The built in rocker curve makes the board float naturally in powder and the firm nose and tail prevent the board from folding in chunky conditions. The future is Bananas! On top of its inhouse Experimental Division design team, Mervin works on product design with many of the world’s top snowboarders, including Jamie Lynn, Danny Kass, Travis Rice, Eric Jackson, Mark Landvik, Jakob Wilhelmson, and Barrett Christy.

Snowboarding is easier and more fun for all!
