$600 Advanced to Expert Freeride and Backcountry Splitboard Directional Tapered Hybrid Camber (S-Rocker) The Whiteroom is one part Rome Notch and one part Rome Anthem SS. It has the Hybrid Camber or Powder Rocker that has a little camber in the back and rocker from the front binding up. From there it has more of the shape of the Rome Anthem Series boards like the Anthem and Anthem SS. Then of course the major differences are its split for backcountry riding and has the S-Rocker aka pow rocker so it floats perfectly in the deep stuff. This is a poppy playful and innexpensive entry point into the backcountry world. If you are new to the backcountry know that people die there so go get your avalance training course at your local mountain so you don't join the wrong side of a statistic. We are glad that the Whiteroom isn't just a split Anthem and actually is a new board for the Rome line.
The Good Ride Take on Rome Rome is relatively new but has some of the best people in the industry working there.For example the designer of the Burton custom is now a principle and designer at Rome.Their strong point is that they make exceptional park and all mountain snowboards.They make boots and bindings that are loved or hated but don’t have the rep that their boards have. From what we have experienced with their clothing its well made, fits well and the waterproofing isn’t bad for the price.Their gloves are hit or miss and don’t really have the rep that their clothing does. They have exceptional customer service and everyone at Rome seems to really love what they are doing so if you have an issue it will most likely be handled professionally. Rome hasn’t really been leading the innovation charge the last few years but almost everything they make is well thought out and fun to use.Rome has the average to 100+ day freestyle to all mountain rider dialed out.
