The Agent is that run that every mountain has and every local knows—that run where you cruise from hip to roller to rope ollie to stump jib to gap to rock drop. It's that run that you lap most days on the hill—or at least those days when there's no pow. If you’re lucky, the run ends at the top of the park where you can spin off some machine-groomed lips and hike the jib line a few times. That run is the Agent
1/1-The design approach that we launched in last year's Agent is back. Every Agent out of the factory has hand-painted elements so that each one is a unique creation and no two are exactly alike-every board is one of one. Joel Brinson, Rome's Art Director for board graphics, explains a little about the 1/1 process:
"You start with a clear topsheet and a black screen print that is different for each length of the Agent. This guarantees that there is some control over the graphic outcome in order to make sure we have killer art on the board that isn't affected by wild brush strokes.
After the black print dries, we pull each topsheet onto the lab table and hit it with an assortment of colors coming from different brush shapes and strokes. Feeling wild? Hit it with the big brush. Feeling mellow? Hit it with the detail brush. No matter the feeling, the graphic is unique on every board."
