Rome MT. Pow 154 SNOWBOARD REVIEW 2016

TESTER: Gary Hansen

BOARD: Rome MT. Pow 154

OVERALL IMPRESSION FROM  1 TO 10:  9

OVERALL COMMENTS: Ultra-light Skatey Surf Slasher. Euro Blast to revert whiteroom all day! Softer flex for low speed fun but handled suprisingly well on the Sundance and Gros Ventre groomers. nice regular camber feel out the back of the board. Fun Forgiving, and Slash worthy.

RATE THE SHAPE FROM 1 TO 5:     5

SHAPE COMMENT: Sick, cant wait to get the 154 or larger one on my Pow Zone!

RATE THE FLEX FROM 1 TO 5:     3

FLEX COMMENT: Medium flex, torsionally also medium. easy to engage a turn at any speed. Maybe a little soft for Jackson and me at 175lbs riding the 154, but one hell of a fun feel!

RATE STABILITY THROUGH TURNS:    2

STABILITY THROUGH TURNS: its light, its turns fast. and it is a little loose with the short contact and the 3D beveling up front. Classic tail centered riding and shortened edge contact. Designed I am sure to ride ultra short and nimble.

RATE THE GRAPHICS FROM 1 TO 5:    2

GRAPHICS COMMENT: Subdued. mellow almost. but someone who rides this board is not looking at the topsheet, they are looking at the shape and outline!

RATE THE POP/ PLAYFULNESS FROM 1 TO 5:    3

COMMENT ON PLAYFULNESS: softer at Jackson. Super poppy and playful. Fun but easy to over load energy in these small contact boards!

RATE FLOAT IN POW IF AVAILABLE FROM 1 TO 5:    3

COMMENT ON FLOAT IN POW: not Sure but I bet that big spoon does alright!!
