The Artifact is Rome's go-to true twin for riders who live on the park features but want a board that handles laps just as well as laps in the pipe. Stay Positive Camber delivers full traditional camber tip to tail, maximizing edge hold and pop while keeping every press and lock-in snappy. Bamboo HotRods and Flax Impact Plates keep the ride smooth and fatigue-free, session after session. The perfect cult classic for intermediate park riders ready to level up their jib game.

Shape:
True Twin: Boards built with fully symmetrical specs; sidecuts, flex patterns and nose and tail lengths. True Twin boards are great for freestyle riding and progression.
Radial Sidecut: Tried and true single radius sidecut. Reliable and consistent, this sidecut style supports every type of rider through all terrain.
Twin Double Kick: Butter with ease, press for days and ride away from damn near anything. Double Kick makes all types of park riding more fun.
Core:
Flax Impact Plates: Flax Impact Plates are woven flax mats that are housed around the board’s insert packs, sandwiched between the core and topsheet. This horizontal layup works to withstand deep landings, distribute impact in variable conditions and increase the board’s overall lifespan without dramatically changing the board’s flex.
Bamboo Hotrods: HotRods are used in a variety of shape-specific configurations. Each configuration is designed to complement a board’s specific riding style by providing additional responsiveness where the board needs it. Bamboo is pressable and playful with plenty of pop.
Base:
PowerSlide Base: Rome's high-end, durable, ‘faster than you’d expect’ extruded base.
