The Stale Fish 2025 is a versatile freeride machine developed by Rome in collaboration with Norwegian powerhouse Ståle Sandbech. Designed for confident to expert riders, this board is built for anyone who wants to play in powder while keeping performance dialled across the whole mountain.

Engineered with a directional shape and rocker in the nose, the Ståle Fish delivers effortless float and agile manoeuvrability in deep snow. Its lightweight Pop Core crafted from poplar and paulownia is reinforced with carbon and bamboo to maximise energy, snap and responsiveness. Whether you’re drawing long, surfy turns or threading rapid, technical lines through the trees, this board reacts instantly to your inputs.

A traditional camber section under the back foot provides strong edge hold and power on firm snow, making it just as fun to carve groomers as it is to dive into powder stashes. The moderately stiff flex (7/10) adds stability at speed, perfect for riders pushing their freeride limits.

In short, the Stale Fish 2025 stands at the top of Rome’s all-mountain lineup, powerful, playful and built to ride it all.

Tech:

• Directional Shape (15.5mm taper): Super easy to turn, with tons of float when it’s deep.
