Rome Stale Fish 148 2023 Snowboard

Surfing and carving in any terrain - the Rome Stale Fish

Ståle Sandbech's choice for powder days, the Stale Fish lets you surf through the deepest powder and perfect your carving turns all over the mountain. This board comes with Rome's Directional Diamond 3D shape, for more float in deep snow, improved handling in variable terrain and smooth turn initiation.

Riding style
An all-mountain/freeride board for advanced riders.
This board is perfect for experienced riders looking for a versatile board for high-speed turns on the slopes and in the backcountry. No matter the terrain or snow conditions, this is your resort and backcountry performer.

Shape
The tapered directional shape is perfect for all-mountain and freeriding. The nose is slightly wider than the tail and provides for controlled turns in any terrain. The offset of the bindings in the direction of the tail (setback) makes the nose a little longer for even more uplift in powder.

Profile
The Free-The-Ride Camber profile comes with a positive camber in the tail, a flat camber on the front binding and a rocker in the nose. The positive camber offers pop and good edge hold. The flat section allows for easy and quick turn initiation. The rocker in the nose increases buoyancy in powder. The Diamond 3D profile is essentially a 3D shaped nose. Just like the shape of a spoon, this lifts the contact points off the snow to prevent catching edge and increase uplift in pow. Without compromising stability, pop or grip on hard snow.

Flex
The medium-stiff flex ensures precise control and fast board response.

Construction
The Pop Core includes two zones of lightweight woods combined with poplar wood for a buttery smooth ride with high power flex. The Sinterstrong Base is easy to repair, with good wax absorption. A low-maintenance base for every rider level. HotRods are thin tubes made of carbon, bamboo or fibreglass and are embedded in milled channels in the wooden core of the board. The flex and pop can thus be precisely placed and changed. In the case of the Stale Fish, bamboo HotRods were used to increase stability. New flax walls extend from the front inserts to the nose. They dampen vibrations and ensure durability. 

Snowboard er ofte levert klart til bruk med en vokset base og skarpe kanter. Likevel, "factory tuning" er ikke så veldig holdbar og ditt nye snowboard bør bli ordentlig vokset etter et par dager og vedlikeholdt.
