So I have been riding the Rome Lo-Fi board the last couple of years and LOVE it :D It is an awesome all round board, whether it be pow, piste, park, moguls, tree runs, rails it really is the best friend you could have strapped to your feet. It's traditional camber with a nice in between flex, not too stiff and not too soft. Solid for jumps while still flexy enough that you can butter and press whether riding along or on boxes/ rails. Real light with amazing ride ability for more high performance riding as in instructor courses, etc. Also a beast in the half pipe, as I say this board will do anything, wherever you take it on the mountain rest assured it will not hold you back :)
My 2 Lo-Fi's I've had so far have been ridden hard and have stood up well to the abuse sadly eventually coming to a gnarly end....
I learnt to backflip and rodeo on this board, eventually fully snapping the the tail off....
Annnnd this past season Lo-Fi did well to last me as long as it did with numerous cracks in the metal edges started to lift off the surface, came to a gnarly end on my last day in NZ on an encounter with a pesky rock blowing out part of the edge....
Hopefully I will be getting this years model of the board as as you can tell I'm super stoked on it but if not then I will try out something different!! Would def recommend this board teamed with the Rome Maddison bindings which are super comfortable and siiiick :)
