DESCRIPTION:
Air big and ride out those choppy landings. Feel Rome’s signature bamboo-and-carbon zing that lets you turn the amp dial to 11. Designed for riders with bigger feet, the Riff became a surprise favorite of team riders with average-sized feet for stomping landings in the Revy backcountry last year while filming for No Correct Way.

Strengths: This board can just pop in the pipe, it`s just insane! For ollies, it`s the same! The bamboo stiffness is so stiff that this board can also deliver the goods as a freeride board. Definitely a versatile board that can suits its "all-mountain" title!

Weaknesses: I wish this board would be somewhat a tad less stiffer so that it could give in a bit and allow the rider to get a much better feel of what`s going on rather that the stiff board telling the rider what will happen next!
