Welcoming the Newest Rome Team Riders

Welcoming the Newest Rome Team Riders

If you have been keeping up with our Instagram this past season, you will have noticed some fresh faces in the crew. Lolo Derminio, Derek Lemke, and Micah Coville all embody the All Ways Down ethos of Rome Snowboards but when put together this season with the existing Rome AM crew it created a clip-hungry powerhouse crew that couldn't be stopped.

Building off of last season's video Particle, we sent a core crew of AM riders to film whatever their hearts desired. Budding riders/filmers Joey Leon and Noah Coville took the reins of the project and really hit the ground running. Folding AM Casey Savage, Pro Maggie Leon, & Quebecois homie Poly into the mix from the jump, the crew took advantage of early season snowstorms around the Eastern US.

Noah tapped younger brother Micah Coville in as well. Having filmed together their whole lives, along with Micah's infectious positivity and willingness to help anyone get a clip, Micah immediately became a staple in the crew. Stepping to feature after feature no matter how burly or sketchy, it became apparent Micah was going to be involved in the project wire to wire.

Having nearly a month on the road before Christmas (seriously, these kids were hungry), the crew made it out to Ohio where they linked up with Midwest silent killer Derek Lemke. With style to make any street spot look like a park rail and his near-clinical approach, Derek was on a tear from spot one. Living and breathing street boarding, Derek would spend the drive from spot to spot on Google Maps looking for more.

After the New Year, young ripper Drake Warner joined longtime friend & new teammate Derek as well as the rest of the AM team on the East Coast. Vibes were high, snow was plentiful, and kickouts were shockingly few and far between. Seemingly able to do any trick switch as good as regular and an uncanny ability to land almost everything within 10 tries, Derek did some serious damage to the east coast.

As snow started to dwindle, the crew turned their attention toward the Great White North. It was also around this time when newest pro addition Lolo Derminio jumped in the crew. This hard charger brought a much needed late season boost of down-for-anything attitude that gave some extra juice.

It isn't too often these days where you can add a rider to an existing crew and have them integrate without a hitch, let alone three. These three new team additions were all motivated by their love of street snowboarding culture and were able to effortlessly work their way into the Rome crew. On full display in our newest street project dropping this Fall: catch Lolo Derminio, Micah Coville, and Derek Lemke alongside Noah Coville, Maggie Leon, Casey Savage, Poly, and Drake Warner. More info on that soon....
