debbi, a bit equal really, Rome maybe a bit more pop and universal, Yukon a bit stiffer and more of a freeride in comparison, but only just. Both boards are wide and good for powder days, but decent edge to edge speed so ok on hard packed piste. Rome maybe better in the park.
Apart from a few crap hire boards I have only ever been on my Flow Infinite 163, which is probably similar to above but not quite as wide, and even a bit stiffer

I bought the Yukon in the end for £40 on ebay - it finished before the Rome board and as i won it I did not go for the Rome, it is a bit battered but ok for powder days, I think I need to get that spider chappy on here to do a bit of repairs thoough.

rayscoops, bargain !

Sounds like a good deal - I think the Yukon is essentially a wide Timeless, which is a superb powder board, I love mine.

debbi, yes bargain, firebug, I tried the TMS for a few runs at the Mondial and I liked it too, a bit more flexible than I thought it would be but it held its edge well, and when set on its edge it just carved a nice arc, easy and not a struggle to turn.

debbi, Montalbert in La Plagne ski area (hence you need to book Paradiski for NY). 20 m from the chair lift and 50m from Boredsurfin. We bought in 2005 but this will be first xmas and NY we spent there as Emerson arrived 9 Dec last year. Still I did get to spend my maternity leave in mountains on a board.
Book NY and we get to ride Romes together!
