Rome Men’s Mechanic Wide 2021 Rome

When all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail. But, with the Rome Mechanic Snowboard at your service, you get the toolset you need to engineer fun on any terrain, no matter how many hours you do or don’t have on a snowboard. It’s designed to be catch-free and rider-friendly, because looking down at a run that’s at the edge of your comfort zone should feel like possibility, not like doubt in the gear beneath your feet. A little zest and power brought into the core from twin bamboo reinforcement rods means the Rome Mechanic Snowboard is a foundation to build your snowboarding adventures on.

Features:

• Stomp Core: Rome’s most stable and predictable core, built with 100% poplar construction.
• Impact Base: Rome’s newly upgraded ISOSPORT 4400 base material features improved wax absorption, increased durability, and the most bang for your buck.
• Bi-axial Fibreglass
• Bamboo HotRod(s): Thin rods of bamboo are milled into the board’s core starting just inside the insert packs and extending into the nose and/or tail. Bamboo HotRods are very pressable and playful.
• Twin Single: A single HotRod in the board’s nose and tail; pressable yet poppy.

Camber Profile:

Contact Rocker

Flat camber between the bindings with rocker outside the bindings; smooth flexing and pressable.

Shape:

True Twin

A true twin shape is completely symmetrical. If you cut a true twin in half exactly down the middle, you would end up with two identical pieces of board.

This means that the nose and the tail are the same length and the same width and the bindings are centred on the board – i.e. they are equal distances from the centre of the board and the front binding is the same distance from the nose as the back binding is from the tail.

Of course, as you can adjust the width of the position of the bindings you could create a setback stance if you were so inclined but this would be unusual on a true twin given its purpose and might be a strange feel depending on the camber profile (i.e. one foot could end up being over camber and the other over rocker which would probably feel odd).

In addition to this a true twin has exactly the same flex in the nose and tail.
