Lib Tech Skunk Ape C3 vs Lib Tech T. Rice Pro

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Lib Tech T. Rice Pro leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Lib Tech Skunk Ape C3 has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Lib Tech T. Rice Pro uses cam_rock_cam_rock_cam (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). Both are rated 7/10 flex (stiff).
