But when you really get moving, it can start to get a little wobbly. But it’s quite stable at reasonable speeds, for its flex. Great for high-end beginners and intermediate riders in that sense. No real personality like the others but consistent and smooth. Easy to initiate turns and a smooth turn from start to finish. Not as lively/springy as the Standard and Ghost (other boards from YES) but has a nice smooth even turn radius. It does have an extruded base vs the sintered base on the Typo – and I do tend to prefer a sintered base if the powder is a little wet/sticky, but otherwise I think the Libre would just tip the Typo in powder. However, it has a Directional Volume Twin shape (a little more volume in the nose vs the tail, which should help with float – also featured on the Standard and the Ghost) and has more rocker in the tip and tail than the Typo – so I’m going to say very subtly better than the Typo in powder. Like the YES Typo it only has a 5mm setback and felt like it would be similar to the Typo in powder. ![]() I didn’t have any fresh powder to speak of really, on the day I rode the Libre, but based on the general feel and on specs, I think it would be good but not amazing in powder. Luckily there wasn’t anyway immediately coming down at that stage and luckily, there was a bit of a bank on the other side that stopped it going too far – but it still must have been a funny site watching me sprint after the board! First time that’s ever happened. It felt on the heavier side overall, compared to most 2019 boards.įunny Story: Whilst I was taking pictures of the Libre, it managed to slip out of the snow and went careering across a groomer. *based on a small sample size of 24 boards that I weighed. Icy patches decreased and soft patches increased as the day went on. Conditions: Icy in a lot of places, especially first thing but even first thing there were some softer patches. ![]()
