Product Details
Rocker Type
Stay Positive Camber – Rome innovated the concept behind this camber back in 2010 and ran it for several years in the Anthem SS-- possibly a bit ahead of its time given the anti-camber craze of those times. This design features positive camber through nearly all of the running length of the board. The result is nearly all the responsiveness of positive camber, but with smoother turn initiation and a touch more float in powder. Great for all-mountain responsive snowboarding.
Flex
Response Rating – 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Shape
True Twin – A true twin snowboard shape is ideal for riders who want to ride switch and do some tricks. The nose and tail are identical and the flex is evenly distributed throughout the entirety of the board. True twins are perfectly symmetrical.
Core
AirPop Core Matrix – Five zones of ultralight woods and air channels combine with snappy poplar for maximum lightweight response.
Laminates
TurboRods | Reverse Radial V – Rome's TurboRod technology puts pop-enhancing rods inside of sleeves for more dynamic response in the tip and tail. Because the rod moves independently from the sleeve, it is able to load more energy and increase pop. This arcing pattern starts under the bindings and bends towards the middle of the board at the contact points in the nose and tail. This maximizes the focus of rider energy into the center of the board for ultimate ollie pop, with only a little added torsional response.
Z-Tech 1.0 Laminate – One of the most advanced, exotic materials in the world, Zylon is lighter, stronger, and more poppy than carbon. So when Rome lays it down the centerline of their boards, it adds a big kick of response. The 1.0 is a 1-inch wide version for a healthy dose of added response.
SuperlightBiax Laminate – Rome's ultra-lightweight biax pattern helps provide an even-flexing, fun, torsional feel; perfect for boards with the otherworldly pop found in Rome's TurboRods.
Base
SinterCarbon Base – For our fastest boards, we take a high-end sintered structure and add carbon to it to increase the speed. Carbon additives reduce friction with the snow, which makes you go even faster.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain snowboards are designed for exploring the whole mountain. They are your go-to for a snowboard that will do anything. They feel at home on groomers, powder, park runs and almost anything in between. The vast majority of snowboarders choose all-mountain boards for their great versatility. If you’re just getting started or unsure of exactly what you need, an all-mountain snowboard is a great choice. 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.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Camber

Rocker Type
Camber Camber is the traditional profile for snowboards, and still popular among high-level park and pipe riders because it offers maximum energy and pop. A cambered board has a smooth arch underfoot and touches near the tip and tail when unweighted; when the rider’s weight is added, it provides a long, evenly pressured running surface and edge.

Flex Rating:
Very Stiff
More
Flex Rating
Very Stiff The amount a snowboard flexes varies significantly between boards. Snowboard flex ratings are not necessarily standardized across manufacturers, so the flex may vary from brand to brand. Many manufacturers will give a number rating ranging from 1-10, 1 being softest and 10 being stiffest. Here at evo we have standardized the manufacturers' number ratings to a feel rating ranging from soft to very stiff. Generally you will find flex ratings of 1-2 as soft, 3-5 as medium, 6-8 as stiff, and 9-10 as very stiff. Flex ratings and feel may ultimately vary from snowboard to snowboard.
