Rome Mod Rocker Snowboard 2016

Mods and Rockers never got along in the British youth sub-cultures, but with the Rome Mod-Rocker all tension have settled and it leaves you a prime board for anything you decide to conquer. Winner of the 2016 Transworld Good Wood award this board has all the modern features for riders who want a powerful and responsive snap without sacrificing the float you want for those powder days.

The profile is a flat base with rockered nose and tail that lets you stomp cliffs, scream through back bowls, and jump like a punk through the park. It is stable enough to reach Mach 5 speeds with control but soft enough to flex those 5-0s down your favorite urban rail. The AirPop core Matrix consists of poplar wood to add strength and durability, but vary density’s throughout the board to make it extremely light and a section with milled out-channels that have been replaced with TurboRods: carbon double barrel rods, for improved pop and flex and helps reduce vibrations for a groovy feeling. Step into the modern age for all-mountain freestyle and let bygones be bygones.

CORE:

Airpop Core Matrix - Poplar for strength and pop. Five zones of super low-density wood for lightness. Air channels for even more lightness.

BASE:

SinterCarbon Base - Carbon additives reduce friction to make the base fast as hell. A highly porous sintered structure absorbs wax for a baseline of gap-clearing speed.

CAMBER PROFILE:

Freepop Rocker - Flat in the mid-body of the board and rockered in the nose and tail.   For all-mountain freestyle riders and pow surfers, this camber line combines equal parts fun and float, with just enough power for cranking a few turns.

EDGE TECH:

QuickRip Technologyr - Power at high speed, fun at low speed. rip is made up of two sidecuts with the same radius that intersect near the bindings providing extra grip, power and control no matter what speed you are going.

THE INSIDES:

Turborods - Carbon Double Barrel - Two parallel HotRods designed to give rocker boards more pop all around—for ollies, nollies and power off the edges.

Superlight Biax Laminate - An insanely light biax pattern keeps the torsional flex smooth and fun, complementing the added pop and response in boards with TurboRods.

Z-Tech 1.0 - A one-inch strip of Zylon for increased ollie pop without increasing much overall stiffness.

THE OUTSIDES:

Good Vibes Sidewalls - Dampens chatter at the point where you initiate and exit turns for better feel and response on terrain. this sidewall absorbs impact more effectively which increases its strength.
