Rome Detail, $360

Here’s what the testers had to say:

“Pretty fun, versatile park board. Better on boxes than on jumps.”
“This board would be really fun for jibs and buttering around. It felt a little unstable at high speeds, other than that it’s super fun.”
“I really like this board, fun on jumps and rails and fun to cruise.”
“This board was so comfortable riding switch. Making turns felt beautiful. I had no luck pressing it on the rails though.”
“The board was so smooth on boxes and rails. It was fairly effortless to ride.”

I HATED HATED HATED this board… good wood is a joke. it's only good ON the rails and boxes, but on the snow, it sucked. it was nothing special. would be more ideal for urban street sessions where you just drop in, go straight, jib, and land. that's it.

LOVE LOVE LOVE this board, been seshing it for 3 years now and don't plan on switching anytime soon. Definetly a park board, so if you need one board for the entire mountain then this deck is not for you. I personally have multiple decks for depending on the days conditions, so it is more a matter of how much you are willing to invest in the best for each. BEST park deck for sure, so easy to press and spin out of boxes, and I have had no problem stomping spins on kickers, so if you are interested in working on your park steeze then invest here! Rome also has a superb warrenty program, they have replaced this deck twice no problem. Good investment for a park deck.
