Rome Snowboard - Mens Viper 162W

Snowboard - Rome Men’s Viper 162W

Rome Men’s Viper is for riders who see the whole mountain as a playground. It can lay down deep carves in the morning, slash powder after lunch and finish the day with sidehits and park laps. Viper is designed as a true omnivore for whatever terrain you find yourself in. The goal was to create a dependable one-board quiver without making it overly demanding or difficult to ride.

Viper has a moderately responsive medium flex that feels secure at speed, but is never so stiff that it loses its playful freestyle character.

The Directional Twin shape creates a balanced feel regular and switch, with a little extra nose for better float and drive through uneven snow. Directional Diamond 3D in the nose helps the board roll smoothly into turns, while Directional Double Kick in the tail provides extra support when landing backseat or driving through rough terrain.

Fusion Camber keeps the edge locked in while carving and loads the board with pop for the next sidehit. Bamboo Omega HotRods create a snappy feel with plenty of ollie power, while Triax Glass keeps the board composed as the pace increases. Viper is an all-mountain destroyer for groomers, powder, park and everything in between.

Viper Wide is a wider version that suits you with larger feet. With a wider waist, you minimize the chance of your toes or heels catching in the snow during deep turns.

The snowboard is factory waxed and tuned, ready for the mountain.

Shape:
Directional Twin:
A versatile twin-inspired shape with a centred stance and slightly longer nose. The board feels balanced when riding switch but has more drive and float in your regular direction.
Directional Diamond 3D:
Three-dimensional shaping in the nose reduces resistance in soft snow, smooths entry into the turn and helps the board float when conditions get deep.
Directional Double Kick:
A two-stage tail that adds power in presses, support during deep landings and better control when the snow becomes uneven.

Profile:
Fusion Camber:
Camber delivers pop, response and secure edge hold, while small rocker zones at the contact points create a softer and more forgiving feel.

Construction:
Stomp Core:
An all-poplar core that provides stability, durability and a predictable flex for all-mountain riding.
Bamboo Omega HotRods:
Bamboo reinforcement with carbon Omega zones. Bamboo provides a playful and forgiving feel, while carbon adds more snap and response.
Triax Glass Laminate:
Triaxial fibreglass creates stability, torsional rigidity and quick energy transfer from edge to edge.
SinterStrong Base:
A durable and fast sintered base that combines good glide with relatively simple maintenance.
Tri-Radial Sidecut:
Three linked radii create a smooth and progressive turn feel, providing control without making the board overly aggressive.
