Construction and Materials

It’s under the bonnet you’ll find the secret sauce that makes this board such an unapologetic monster. First off, there’s the SuperPop Core and again, Rome aren’t mucking around with the marketing names. This thing’s the lightest and most responsive core Rome offers and utilises a blend of 20mm Paulownia strips and 10mm Poplar strips.

Next up is the fibreglass bread for this delicious wood sandwich. On both sides of the core are Biax fibreglass laminates that add a little bit more torsional play and pressability back into this stiffer board for some extra creativity on the mountain. Impact Plates help to dampen the chatter and soften the blow of heavy landings while the SinterSpeed Base will have you moving fast than my guts after a late-night kebab.

But the big talking point are the Carbon Omega Hotrods that are milled into the core in a V shape in the tip and tail. These things are like steroids for pop and give the Stale Mod such a turbo charged snap that you actually have a fighting chance in beating gravity once and for all.

“If you’re into spending as little time on the floor as possible then this might be the one for you!”

Roundup

The Stale Mod is the board that the Scandinavian sender straps into when he wants to go bigger than everyone else. Every inch, both inside and out is finetuned for more launch power than a Space X rocket.

So if you’re in the market for a board ready to take on the mars mission that can actually handle spinning on all axis then look no further than the Stale Mod.
