Rome

Mountain Division Snowboard

If you're the type of rider who couldn't care less about the terrain park and would rather be out searching for hidden pow stashes than hitting rails, then the Rome Mountain Division Snowboard was made for you. It has a hybrid profile and directional shape for a ride that rips on groomers and glides over powder.

This true all-mountain slayer starts with Rome's Free-The-Ride profile, which combines camber, flat, and rocker so it floats in the deep stuff just as well as it rails turns on hardpack. Camber from the tail to the front foot insert gives it plenty of pop and edge hold, and then it transfers to flat under the front foot to help load up the rockered nose for float when you get into powder. Turborods carbon rods and a two-inch strip of Zylon down the center add crazy amounts of pop and give it lightning-quick response.

The Airpop Core matrix uses five zones of poplar for a snappy feel that's super-lightweight, but also very strong. Biax glass keeps the flex consistent for smooth, predictable turns. It's finished off with Rome's high-end Sinterspeed base, which absorbs large amounts of wax for several days of high-speed riding.
