Rome SDS (Snowboard Design Syndicate) was founded in 2001 by Josh Reed and Paul Maravetz in Waterbury, VT. Reed and Maravetz worked previously at Burton Snowboards in their marketing and product design departments.
Collectively they decided that the snowboard industry was putting out too many average products with large marketing budgets. This sparked the drive to start their own company (Rome SDS) and focus on making superior products not as much on conventional marketing.
Rome produces everything you need on the hill from boards, boots, bindings to full outerwear and apparel. Since day 1 talking about snowboards and snowboarding has been a fundamental aspect of Rome SDS, the on-going conversation that helps Rome grow as a brand is the Syndicate in which they stand for, get involved!
