• Carbon Omega HotRods: The Rene-Gade is Rene Rinnekangas’ pro model, built for mind blowing freestyle antics and high-energy ripping. This directional twin features the unique Directional Triple Carbon Omega HotRods for high-speed stability and ollie power. Built on our SinterSpeed base for high-octane riding and complemented with the predictable feel of Stay Positive Camber and Twin Flax Walls, this board is truly one of a kind.
• Flax Impact Plates: New for this season we overhauled Rome's industry leading Impact Plates. Now with a full woven flax construction and a new shape that covers and reinforces the insert pack. Flax Impact Plates are designed to make boards more durable. Flax Impact Plates help absorb impact and add increased strength without changing the board’s flex pattern.
• Triax Fiberglass: Fiberglass running in three different axes, built for torsionally rigidity and added snap.
• Superpop Core: Rome's lightest and most responsive core, built with alternating strips of 10mm strips of poplar and 20mm strips of paulownia.
• *Wide: recommended 11.5+ men's snowboard boot size*

Profile: Stay Positive Camber

Powerful and predictable, tried-and-true camber

The side profile of camber looks like a rainbow. Tried and true, camber has been the dominant board bend in the snowboard industry for almost 40 years. Adopted from the bend of alpine skis, camber snowboards deliver precise turning and edge control, with spring-loaded pop due to the bend in the board, providing better jumping characteristics. Advanced riders tend to prefer this bend, especially for hard carving and high-speed riding. Even when it comes to softer park snowboards, camber boards deliver exceptional pop and control.

However, they are not as forgiving of mistakes and can be more difficult to learn or progress on than a rocker or hybrid bend.

Shape: Directional Twin

Directional twins are a combination of true twins and directional boards, combining the best elements of both designs to create one versatile board that can do it all.
