The T. Rice Orca isn't your typical all-mountain board—it's a beast engineered for riders who demand versatility without compromise. Travis Rice's signature design pairs a long, floaty nose with a responsive, poppy contact point and proprietary Whale Tail Technology for lightning-quick short-radius turns. The tight 7m sidecut carves hardpack like a surgeon while the wide platform floats through deep snow and pillows without sacrificing edge hold. Narrow enough to be your daily driver, bold enough to handle Alaska backcountry, BC steeps, or home resort laps all season. This is the mammal that eats all fish. The T. Rice Orca is Travis's vision of pure fun—a directional ripper that crushes powder and carves resort groomers with equal authority. Ride it 3-6cm shorter than your normal board to unlock its full potential. A floaty nose keeps you afloat in deep snow, while the tight sidecut and powerful tail deliver explosive edge control and pop on hardpack. This is the board that bridges freeride ambition and daily-driver practicality, ready for backcountry missions or endless laps at your home mountain. Every purchase supports the Orca Conservancy's mission to protect Southern Resident Killer Whales in the Salish Sea. #BeTheirVoice
