ARTIFACT MEN'S SNOWBOARD - 2025
Built with a forgiving flex for double kinks, backyard parks, and urban adventures. The Artifact is a cornerstone of the Rome Board Collection thanks to its jib-happy flex profile and utterly too fun park performance. With the reliable power of Stay Positive Camber, Flax Impact Plates, a pressable flex profile, and the locked-in feeling that only Double Kick provides, the Artifact is a pure park annihilator. Park rats, van dwellers, stair shovelers, and jib kids everywhere know, the Artifact is the truth.
SHAPE
- STAY POSITIVE CAMBER: Powerful and predictable, tried-and-true camber.
- TRUE TWIN SHAPE: Boards built with fully symmetrical spec: sidecuts, flex patterns, camber profiles and nose and tail lengths. True twin boards are great for freestyle riding and progression.
- DOUBLE KICK: Used on freestyle-oriented boards, Double Kick is an aggressive, two-part rise in the board’s nose and tail. Built to lock into presses, ride away from sketchy landings and butter with ease, Double Kick makes park riding more fun.
CONSTRUCTION
- STOMPCORE: Rome's most stable and predictable core, built with 100% Poplar construction.
- TWIN SINGLE BAMBOO HOTRODS: A Rome first innovation, HotRods are thin rods milled into their boards’ cores designed to add additional responsive power. The Artifact has a single pressable and playful bamboo HotRod in the board’s nose and tail for torsional flexibility and reliable all-mountain charging.
- FLAX IMPACT PLATES: Flax Impact Plates are a woven flax mat housed around the board’s insert pack, sandwiched between the core and topsheet material. This horizontal layup works to absorb impact and diffuse it out into the board, built to withstand deep landings, impact in variable conditions and increase the board’s overall lifespan without dramatically changing the board’s overall flex.
- POWERSLIDE BASE: Rome's high-end, durable, ‘faster than you’d expect’ extruded base.
