Rome Snowboard - Rene Pro 159

Snowboard - Rome Rene Pro 159

Rome Rene Pro is exactly what the name suggests: the fully loaded version of Rene Rinnekangas’ signature board, built for riders who believe the jumps can be bigger, the speed faster and the landings deeper. This is a powerful freestyle board for big jumps, technical park features and creative lines across the mountain. The flex is stiff and responsive, just the way Rene wants it, but the board retains the lively feel needed to react quickly between features.
The Directional Twin shape provides a balanced freestyle feel regular and switch, while delivering stability and control when the board is pointed forwards. Stay Positive Camber loads the board with explosive pop and secure edge hold - traditional, dependable full camber, plain and simple.

SuperPop Core and Directional Triple Carbon Omega HotRods create an ultralight and extremely responsive construction with loads of pop. Twin Flax Walls and Flax Impact Plates reinforce the board for big landings, while Triax Glass keeps it stable as speed increases. Rene Pro is simply Rene Rinnekangas’ trusted weapon when he is charging full on and then some.

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

A freestyle-inspired shape with a slightly longer nose and a balanced feel in both directions. The board works well regular and switch, while providing extra stability and control when riding forwards.

Profile:
Stay Positive Camber:
Positive camber delivers explosive pop, precise response and powerful edge hold. Pure, traditional camber, plain and simple.

Construction:
SuperPop Core:
Rome’s lightest and most responsive core, built with alternating strips of poplar and paulownia. The construction keeps weight low and delivers fast energy transfer with an explosive feel.
Directional Triple Carbon Omega HotRods:
Three directionally positioned HotRods with carbon-reinforced Omega zones provide extreme response, powerful pop and stability at high speeds and during big landings.
Twin Flax Walls:
Vertical flax-fibre reinforcement in both the nose and tail increases strength, loads the board with more ollie power and helps absorb deep landings.
Flax Impact Plates:
Woven flax-fibre plates around the binding inserts spread the force from landings and increase durability without unnecessarily affecting the flex.
Triax Glass Laminate:
Fibreglass running in three directions creates high torsional rigidity, fast power transfer and stability when riding fast and loading the board hard.
SinterSpeed Base:
Rome’s fastest premium base. A high-performance sintered base developed for maximum speed and high-level riding.
Radial Sidecut:
A traditional sidecut with one consistent radius for predictable turns and a consistent feel from the beginning to the end of the turn.
