SB or TRice for 09?

Hi Im 5'11 155 lbs and im looking to get a lib board for next season. I mostly ride groomers with the occasional day when we get powder. I ride way more freeride than in the park but next season I'm going to be doing both about equal.

So I'm pretty much looking for an all around board and im looking it at either the 156 SB or the 157 TRice, but I also heard the new TRS is a good board.
Which board do you guys recommend? I've heard good things about all of them, but there seems to be way more hype on the SB... Heard its great in park and pow, but I have heard mixed opinions about how it handles at speed on groomers. Any advice is appreciated Smiling

Next seasons TRice has banana tech, as does pretty much every board in the Lib line up - problem solved:

i was in the same boat earlie

i was in the same boat earlier this season. i was looking at the same two boards, same size, everything. i am also around 155-160 lbs and everyone was tellin me to go smaller on the lib tech's - story short, i got a 152 skate banana and its everything you could want in a snowboard. i live in michigan so we get a lot of hardpack/ice - this board will never lose an edge. i also made a trip to steamboat this year - this board is nuts in the powder. i didnt even have to set my stance back. if you are looking for a board that does it all, and most of all is fun to ride - get the skate banana!
