Rome

Gang Plank Snowboard

Although we'll never deny the benefits of having a quiver of boards suited to specific terrain features and snow conditions, the truth is, many riders can only afford one deck at a time. Realizing this, the Rome Gang Plank was developed for park-to-peak versatility that seamlessly transitions from fresh turns in the trees to spinning off kickers and laying clean presses in the jib park. This twin-shaped deck brings a poppy, yet playful feel to your freestyle riding, providing spring-loaded snap for sending the jump line while retaining enough flex for learning tricks without consequence.

Designed with Rome's FreePop Rocker profile, the Gang Plank is flat throughout the board's mid-section for the predictability and stable straight-line tracking you've come to love from flat boards. Just past the binding inserts, the board transitions to rocker towards the tip and tail for a more forgiving feel without hanging up on landings and turns. Rocker zones creates a bit more float in the fresh stuff, preventing you from bogging down when your mountain gets covered with fluffy powder.

Boosting snap, the HotRods Bamboo Single Barrel is a single rod of bamboo milled directly into the core for explosive pop and increased energy transmission. Since it's placed vertically, the bamboo rod doesn't sacrifice torsional flex, allowing the board to snap enthusiastically without being overly stiff when you're playing around the park. Another cool feature, the Rebound sidewalls are more elastic than traditional ABS, absorbing chatter while preventing premature blow-outs in the case of nasty impacts with rails and freestyle features. Rome also places Basalt Impact Plates directly under the binding zones for greater strength when you're stomping heavy landings.
