Shawn Dumont, one of the designers here at Rome got to spend some time in Germany with the Rome Europe crew. He took some time to chat with Monkey, aka Stuart Horsham, one of our UK Rome shreds for this edition of Locals Only. Less than surprising, during the interview they drank a few brews and were removed from the hotel against their will
Some pretty awesome art shows up here at the Rome Snowboard Design Syndicate every now and then. Sometimes it’s in digital format, drawn on a cardboard box, or drunkenly scribbled on a napkin.
