Rome Lo-Fi 1985, $450
Rome Lo-Fi 1985, $450Here’s what the testers had to say:
“So fun to ollie and play around with. Rides great in the park so I’d say it’s a super versatile all around board.”
“Tons of pop. I don’t like a lot of boards but this one was sweet! Super stable and got tons of that air.”
“This board was so fricking awesome on jumps!”
“It was surprisingly maneuverable though.”
“Rides like a bigger board in an awesome way. The reverse camber makes it easy to jib and press but the board handles jumps. 2 thumbs up!”

We apologize. Those stats were for the regular Lo-Fi, which comes in a 140, 144, 147, 150, and 153. The 1985 reverse camber version does only come in a 143, 146, and 149. Check the table for the updated specs. Reverse camber boards are made to be ridden a bit smaller too. Cheers!

I am 5"7" , 120lb and usually ride a 149. Should I downsize to a 146?

i don´t know, i usually ride 148 and was also wondering if i should downsize to 146.
but many people that i asked told me that it´s just crap to downsize if it´s a revers chamber!
I would like to hear other points of that!
