Rome Design Snowboard 2008 

 THE ULTRA-LIGHT FREEDOM TO EXPERIMENT

When we created the original Design with Jonaven, his push was to have a directional twin with a nose-shaped tip and tail to give him the freedom to ride AK lines switch or throw b/s 1s off spines.   And to do it with power.  The goal in 2008 is the same but the technology has evolved to push the performance envelope.  New core, new laminate and new base result in a faster, lighter board with more pop.  Designed for pow, it's precise responsiveness also makes it a favorite for riders with an early-morning groomer habit.

What the Design thinks is shradical:  untracked bowls; steep spines; untracked corduroy; natural cliff drops; laybacks; pillow lines
