Customer Reviews
Bought the 149 for my son along with a pair of 390 Bosses. It was time for him to get on a cambered board. He loves this thing. He’s laying trenches like his old man (I’m on a Ravine Select) and is riding fast which only a cambered board can deliver. From powder to park and everything in between, this board seems to have it. Shout out to the Angry Snowboarder for the recommendations.
This board absolutely shreds, park board yup, pow performance amazing but it truly comes to life in speed, edge and flex. You can lay this thing out with ease and super responsive for chop, glop and bumpy terrain. This is by far my favorite board in my over 30yrs of riding and being completely submersed in the industry. I'd say a must have but just try one and it will sell itself.
I have only a few days on this board but so far it has been a blast. My park board is a 154W and I wanted another board that could carve well and would hold up on the steeps. So, I bought the Freaker in 157W. I weigh 165 lbs, my boot size is 10.5, and I have M/L Rome Vice bindings mounted. This board holds an edge very well, and I can get very low in my carves without dragging toes or heels on the snow. Occasionally it takes some muscling around on steep, bumped up trails, but I knew this going in with the recommended weight range for 157W. The Freaker is very stable, predictable, and confidence inspiring at speed. You can feel the two hotrods at the tail of the board driving you out of each carve, and the softer nose helps when the trail gets choppy.
Got this board and way more response and easier at the park
The Rome Freaker is an all mountain slayer. Carves up groomers, tears it up in the tree, luv it in the bumps. Be a Freak!
