Forum Roost 162W 2027 – All Mountain Snowboard

The Forum Roost is a directional all-mountain board built for riders who want a dedicated powder feel without sacrificing performance on hardpack. Whether you're chasing fresh lines or carving groomers at speed, the Roost is engineered to handle whatever the mountain throws at it — in any condition, at any hour of the day.

The 162W rides on a tapered directional shape with a setback stance and flat tip camber that encourages float in deep snow, while Phocus Camber through the contact points delivers the edge hold and pop needed for fast, precise carving. The PowerCRV™ multi-radius sidecut transitions smoothly from wide arcing turns to tight, reactive cuts. The wood core blends Poplar and Beech for a lively, responsive feel, reinforced by Flylight Plus™ triaxial fiberglass and Booter Boosters™ carbon-aramid struts for added snap and torsional stability. The Forumula8Pro™ sintered base keeps speed high in any conditions. Flex is 8/10.

Who It's For

The Roost is built for intermediate to advanced riders who spend most of their days hunting pow but still need a board that performs when the snow firms up. If you're the kind of rider who goes straight from a powder stash to a high-speed groomer run, this is your board. The wide 162W platform adds extra float and suits riders with larger feet who hate boot drag.

FAQ

• Is the Roost good for park riding? It can handle occasional jumps and rollers thanks to its carbon struts and snappy core, but it's optimized for all-mountain and powder use rather than dedicated park sessions.
• What binding stance does the Roost work best with? It's designed around a setback stance to maximize float — most riders will mount closer to the tail than a twin setup.
