Rome SDS was founded by Josh Reid and Paul Maravetz. Reed and Maravetz worked together in marketing and product development at Burton. They felt the need to start their own company when they began to feel that the snowboard industry was putting out too many mediocre products that sold only because they were used by an Olympic snowboarder and marketed heavily. The two felt that companies had stopped caring about snowboarding. Thus, in late 2001, the two launched Rome SDS.
