Rome Shank - 2013
The thought of a reverse camber snowboard with raised contact points always made everybody at Snowboard-Review.com giggle, imagining how ridiculously slippery it would be in anything but powder, we thought. Well Rome built one and it turns-out that we were wrong. The Rome Shank can hold an edge, it does ollie and according to our tester Rob, it’s actually a pretty fun board to ride! It is probably still best to keep the Shank away from icy Super Pipe walls though.
