Sierra Says: We all saw the Matrix and we all know how cool the ‘Agents’ are. Well Rome’s Agent is no less awesome. This all mountain freestyle board offers superior design that really brings the word ‘freestyle’ to its true meaning; a more aggressive board for riders who know how they want to ride and don’t know and don’t care what terrain is coming up in front of them. A real, all mountain board, the Agent gives you the best of all worlds.

Rome Says:Whether you get wayward on shred hitting massive park jumps, popping off groomed rollers, rewinding off stumps, or charging untracked lines, the Agent adds stoke to all sides of the collective addiction. With a flex and feel that leaves the creativity up to the individual rider, the Agent will let you define your approach to snowboarding, not the other way around. For clearing ropes more easily, the new Reverse-V carbon stringer focuses your ollie power in the tail without adding any unwanted torsional stiffness.

-StraightTriax 30 Carbon Laminate
-SinterSpeed Base

"Rome Agent (08)" 12/20/2008
Helpful Review?   (2) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Rome Agent
  • Skill:  Intermediate
  • Use:  Boxes,Groomers,Jumps,Powder,Rails
  • Pros:  lightweight, Easy to carve, poppy, Great value, Popular on mountain, Soft, Well known brand
  • Cons:  Too soft, Sluggish

Experience:   The board rides really really really well. I went with a 156 instead of my usual 158-162 for all mtn or 152-154 for jibbing. The middle of the road I figured made the most sense. What I found was that this board does a lot of things really really well. The light core lets it spin like nobody's business while the impact plates really help with the landings. The carbon laminate and core profile creates some serious pop while also letting me rail down the hill. Buttering is ridiculously easy on this board, ridiculously easy. Setting the board on edge is easy and the board is super stable at speed. I expected it to ride more like a door at speed, but it rode icy groomers like a champ! My only quibble was as I spun it, my edges seemed to catch a lot easier than I would expect for a park board. Of course I did a really shitty job detuning them, so I attribute it mainly to that and the fact that the swing weight is really low so I was probably over spinning. Overall it's definitely a park board that rides all mountain well (say 65% park, 45% mtn) but for the average soul, you would never know that it couldn't shine maching some GS turns.

Experience:   One of my best snowboard friends AA turned me on to this snowboard. The Rome Agent is one of my favorite types of boards because it is soft enough to do butters, jibs and fun little tricks. Unlike supper Jib Boards, the Agent has some snap and sturdiness for sizable jumps, going mach speeds at squaw and for me as i get fatter!

"Rome Agent '09" 3/19/2009
Helpful Review?   (0) Yes    (0) No

  • Name: 2009 Rome Agent
  • Skill:  Advanced
  • Use:  Boxes,Groomers,Jumps,Powder,Rails
  • Pros:  Durable, lightweight, Easy to carve, poppy, Stable at high speeds, Strong edgehold, Soft

Experience:   Awesome board! I switched over from the Burton Custom to experiment with new boards and I'm so glad I did! This board is so light it's ridiculous! In combination with the Rome 390 bindings it felt like I was only wearing my boots while on the lift. The board is super poppy and much lighter than I expected (considerably lighter than my Burton Custom). The impact plates are awesome! On my Custom, my knees use to start feeling it after hitting about a dozen kickers but with this board I can go on all day with no problems at all! Buttering is also ridiculously easy on this board! Bombing down groomers is a piece of cake as well. The base is super fast! Comparable to the Sintered Vision WFO Base on my Custom which is rumored to be one of the fastest snowboarding base in production. Although I have to admit that my Custom was a little more stable at higher speeds, this board can still handle it very well (this is probably due to the Custom being a slightly stiffer and heavier board). I have yet to test it on powder as I bought the board at the end of the season. On top of everything, the graphics are sick! If you're an all mountain freestyle rider, I would definitely check this board out! Demo this board when you get the chance, you won't regret it!
