Rome Mod Snowboard - 2008
The Rome Mod Snowboard's true twintip shape lets you spend half your time riding switch, and its Air Core matrix gives you a ride that's torsionally mellow and longitudinally snappy. Using Rome's PowerAmp technology, the Mod's core combines bamboo inserts and carbon stringers for insane amounts of pop so you can load and ollie this snowboard onto handrails or over ropes for quick powder runs. Air Core technology reduces this freestyle board's overall weight to give you easier spins and a more reactive ride all over the mountain. The Mod Snowboard's carbon sintered base gives you crazy glide by creating a static charge between your base and the snow. Hardened impact edges withstand all the abuse your jib sessions can deliver.
Bottom Line: Ditch your outdated freestyle ride and go new-school on the Rome Mod Snowboard.
Leave your mark on The Wall.
Best Board Ever!... for a day

i bought this board in the fall for my first semester of college in Vermont. I took it up to jay peak, and was buttering around on it. after the first day of riding i started noticing that the nose was De-laming and was eventually going to break off. (there was NO park open the first day so you can't even blame impact damage!). i ignored the problem until the nose flapped around when i rode it.
Rome's warranty happily replaced my board and my first day out on my new deck, i was bonking in the park and i dented an edge in and caused the entire tail to delam.
this board is the lightest, sickest board, with the best pop that i have ever ridden. it is definitely flexible enough for anyone and still slays on kickers.
this is without a doubt the best board i have ever ridden but rome needs to start focusing on durability. i have seen more romes snap or break than any other board company (and i have personally snapped 4 of them). come on rome, get your shit together

Rome Mod Insane Light, Insane Pop

I bought this board in a 156 last season, and I'm getting another one this year-- it's THAT GOOD. Compared weights to my homey's Burton Custom X 156, and they weigh exactly the same-- crazy!! For a twin-tip, it's a firmer flex, but by no means stiff. The butter zones are PERFECT for nose presses and 5-0s but you can still straight line out crazy shit with confidence. Not very good in pow, but hey it's a twintip. SUPER FAST, SUPER LIGHT, SUPER FUN. More versatile than the Agent or Artifact.
is this a stiffer or softer board and what kind of park riding
is this a stiffer or softer board and what kind of park riding is it intended for?

this baby will jib anything and presses are super easy. this board is extremely flexible, but offers pop instead of dead flex, so it kills on kickers, in trees, and when you need to hop some fences

cyrus has got to be completely wack... this board is made for park and it does well on mountain... but he was right about the medium softness... but u can hit anything on the park which the board would work best in but still go to the mountain and freeride... i know it may say allmountain freestyle but it is used in the park more
