However, don’t be fooled into thinking that this board is a one trick pony. Thanks to its innovative design, the Agent is equally happy, hitting everything on the mountain. Now to ensure that the board delivers that solid and stable performance on the piste, Rome fit the Agent with a mid-radius sidecut. So no matter if you’re tracking into kickers or just playing around on the piste, you’ve got a predictable and progressive feeling board under your feet.ProfileTo give the Agent that unique ability to take on every type of terrain, Rome utilises theirall-terrain fusion camber. This combines positive camber through most of the running length with a small amount of rocker just before the end of the running length. When loaded, the contact points “roll back” giving the tip and tail a small amount of added rise. This design has the pop and response of positive camber while the small amount of rocker in the tip and tail create a smoother feel and added lift in the pow.InternalsHeading up the Agents high-quality build is the Pop core. This lightweight combination of poplar and two paulownia stringers delivers the perfect balance of all-terrain versatility and freestyle friendliness underlining the board's playful feel. To this, Rome then adds its unique Hot Rod technology. In the case of the Agent, it’s the Bamboo Single Barrel version. This innovative technology places glass fibre tubes running from the insert packs out to the tip and tail. Inside these tubes are free floating bamboo rods anchored under the bindings. These add pop and power to the tip and tail of the board without compromising the Agents freestyle inspired torsional flex. Now to ensure that the Agent delivers the perfect balance of freestyle feel and all-terrain versatility, the structural layers are formed from Rome’s exclusive Straightbiax carbon laminate. This high-performance material replaces the longitudinal glass band with carbon fibre to deliver enhanced pop, again without compromising freestyle flex.BaseTo deliver exceptional performance with increased durability, the Agent uses the high-speed Sintertrue base. This has excellent wax retention, ensuring that you get better performance for longer.Additional informationLengthWaist WidthSidecutTapereffective edgeTip LengthTail LengthMin StanceMax StanceSetbackWeight Range15425.2cm7.93m0cm119cm21cm21cm49.5cm61.5cm0cm115-170lbs / 52-77kg15725.4cm8.19m0cm122cm21cm21cm49.5cm61.5cm0cm130-190lbs / 59-86kg16025.6cm8.30m0cm125cm21cm21cm52cm64cm0cm150-220lbs/68-100kg
