Rome Headline Snowboard

All-terrain shred stick clues in a new generation.

2011-2012 Rome Headline Men's Snowboard Key Features:

Hybrid RipIt Camber - With positive camber for most of the mid-body of the board (it ends about 15cm before the contact points), this camber works with Rome's highest-octane technologies and geometries to keep power, precision and quickness directly under your feet. Rocker in the nose and tail add float in powder and help glide into and out of your high-powered turns. This is the perfect choice for riders who like to destroy terrain at speed.

QuickRip Sidecut Technology -This sidecut consists of a mid-section sidecut that is off-set from a sidecut of the same radius in the nose and tail. This mid-section sidecut is joined to the nose and tail sidecut by transition zones that create two mid-board contact points that are located just outside of the binding mounting area. QuickRip lets a board "ride short" at slow speeds by engaging the mid-section sidecut between the mid-board contact points. It also lets a board "ride long" at high speeds by engaging the full running-length sidecut where the mid-board contact points work to improve edge hold.

Impact Core Matrix - A 40% wood composite material is impregnated with wood fibers to create a core that is super durable, environmentally friendly and smooth flexing. This core is ideal for riders who like a board that can take jib and all-mountain abuse.

BST Torque Stringer Technology - Light and strong basalt fibers maximize torsional snap for edge-to-edge quickness and power.

Glass Impact Plates - Rome’s Glass Impact Plates deliver anti-compression strength under your bindings at a lighter weight with a more even flex.

Straight Triax 45 Laminate - When you are looking for response and precision, this is the laminate. 45 degree off-axis fibers deliver a feel that can be defined by one word - power. Spring from edge to edge and lock into high-speed carves.

SinterTrue Base - A combination of wax absorption and abrasion resistance results in gap-clearing speed with solid amounts of strength.
