PRODUCT DETAILS
PRODUCT DETAILS
The Rome Snowboards Artifact is a mellow-flexing true twin that loves to lap the park and jib the entire mountain. The Artifact is built with the predictable yet playful Stay Positive Camber and the freestyle-friendly flex of Bamboo HotRods, designed to load ollies while staying buttery soft. There’s something magic about how a soft-flexing positive cambered board feels on steel or cruising sidehits. Designed to lock into front boards, tweak crails, layback in the mini-pipe or nosepress that rail you’ve been eyeing for years, the Artifact is down.
- Stay Positive Camber: Tried and true, powerful and responsive; Stay Positive Camber is the original no frills way to create an explosively powerful feel. Great for precisive, high octane riding, going sicko mode in the park or simply burying an edge into some corduroy, Stay Positive Camber is the preference for boards that team riders gravitate towards for powerful riding and deep landings.
- Bamboo HotRods: A thin bamboo rod is milled into the board’s core, adding a mellow boost of stability and power. Bamboo HotRods are less powerful than Carbon HotRods and are designed to add a modest amount of responsiveness and power to medium-flexing boards.
- Twin Single HotRods: A single HotRod is milled into the board’s core, symmetrically positioned from the insert packs out into the nose and tail areas. This is the most widely used configuration, primarily used in True Twin and Directional Twin shapes as it creates a predictable boost of power and response that makes any shape ride better.
- Flax Impact Plates: Flax Impact Plates are woven mats of Flax, a lightweight textile with supernatural strength properties, laid between the board’s core, insert pack and topsheet. They add superior strength and impact dampening to a key part of the board, as so much energy is transferred through the inserts.
- Twin Double Kick: Designed to add stability to softer-pressing, freestyle-oriented boards, Twin Double Kick is an aggressive, two-part rise in a board’s nose and tail. This shaping technology is built for locked-in presses and added help riding out of backseat landings that park riders can’t live without.
- PowerSlide Base: A high-end, durable and faster than you’d expect extruded base. Built for taking a beating and shredding everything in its path.
- Radial: Built to complement a variety of all-terrain oriented boards and riding styles, a single radius sidecut is ‘tried and true,’ consistent and reliable. Single Radius is typically used to bolster edge hold on cambered boards.
- Stomp Core: Built to create a stable and smooth feel with a simple construction for progression-oriented boards. Stomp Cores are built with 100% Poplar construction.
- Biax Glass: This layout consists of fiberglass with two different axes, creating a more playful and torsionally dynamic feel. Great for freestyle-friendly presses, and torsional play for sidehits and jibs.

BASE TECH
- Extruded Base - Found on most beginner and freestyle snowboards. Durable and made to be easier to repair and maintain.
- Sintered Base - Absorbs and holds wax better for more custom tuning resulting in faster performance but does require more frequent wax application.
MOUNTING
SHAPE
- Twin - The nose of the snowboard is the same shape and rise as the tail to ride the board in either direction and balanced freestyle riding.
- Directional Twin - The nose of the snowboard is the same shape and rise as the tail with the binding inserts set back for more surface area in the nose and versatility when riding in different snow conditions and terrain.
- Directional - The nose is typically longer and/or wider than the tail for float in powder and downhill riding.
