Construction and Core
Built with an impact core matrix featuring a composite wood technology designed for lightweight, eco-friendly longevity. A 40% wood composite material is impregnated with wood fibers to create a core that is super durable, environmentally friendly and smooth flexing. Ideal for riders who like aboard that can take jib and all-mountain abuse.
Straight Traix 45 Laminate drives all-mountain shredding. 45degree off axis fibers delivers a feel that is defined by power to ensure rock solid grip in your turns and explosion of power from one turn to the next.
Shape
Directional Standard
The Rome Headline Snowboard features a hybrid camber for riders who love pop and powder. Positive camber extends beyond the insert region and engages reverse camber when loaded up for quickness, power and float.
Sidewalls, Edges and Base
A SinterTrue Base is wax absorbent and strong so it is sure to speed up for extended play.
Sidewalls are made of 100% recycled material; eco-friendly to the max!
A mountain edge bevel of -1degree base/-1degree side delivers precision and power while eliminating twitchiness for comfort landing in natural terrain and transitioning from edge to edge.

Terrain
Freeride Freeride snowboards are designed for the rider that spends most of the day off groomed runs and in backcountry terrain. They typically have a stiffer flex and are ridden in longer sizes than freestyle snowboards. Freeride snowboards often feature a directional shape that is designed to perform optimally in one direction. Powder Powder snowboards love powder. Often associated with freeride snowboards, powder boards sometimes feature a wider nose and a tapered narrower tail. The binding inserts, which determine the rider's stance, are often set back on a powder snowboard to help the rider float the tip of the board through the deep stuff. Powder snowboards sometimes also feature rocker, a design element where the tip (and tail) rise starts farther back on the board, which also helps the rider maintain tip float through the pow.

Ability Level
Intermediate-Advanced Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.

Rocker Type:
Rocker

Rocker Type
Rocker A rocker board side profile is the opposite of a camber board, with a smooth downward curvature to it and less edge contact length when the board is weighted. Rocker boards float well in powder and pivot more easily underfoot. They also tend to be less “hooky” at both tip and tail and better for landing spin maneuvers when you don’t quite have enough rotation.
