A Rome classic that’s worth considerably more than something dug up in a farmer’s back yard (at least when you’re on snow), the Rome Artifact Snowboard is a softer freestyle ride that balances a forgiving nature with tons of energy. Rome’s Stay Positive Camber and Bamboo PopRods give your ollies extra juice and a PowerSlide base means extra durability for long hours on rails.
