Rome Agent Rocker vs. Rome Postermania - Snowboarding Forum

KHARV · 02-27-2013, 10:17 PM

I finally have the money to get a new board and I was hoping to get some input from you guys. If I get either of these I was thinking about a 156, I am 5'6", 160 lbs, 9.5 size shoe. Any comments or recommendations about either of these boards?

Thanks for any help

what kind of ridding and where do you ride? both of those are up on whiskey militia for cheap incase you didn't know.

Yea I saw that on Whiskey. I like to ride the whole mountain and take runs in the park through out the day

ride mostly on the east coast but that may change in the next year

The agent is probably a bit better for all mountain and will be solid in the park. The postermania should be better in the park but still good on the rest of the mountain.

agreed, both will excel in park or all-mountain, but the agent has more lean toward the latter while the postermania enjoys the former more.

really depends on your thing. if you like riding the mountain and really just take laps through the park on the way down, i'd take the agent. a board with a heavy freestyle slant kind of sucks when riding through variable mountain terrain (with exceptions). you'll have more overall fun with this.

if you're the type to spend an entire day at the park, unstrapping and walking back up, etc. i'd take the postermania.
