Such a great board!!!
Great for jibbing the mountains, powder and cruising.
Very stabil on fast turns.
I was really struggling decide on a binding. I rode a bunch, and these ones were tge creme de la creme! I tried my current set up with the new union force and it felt dead, but these bring it to life!
Best ankle strapnin the game, nice highback, great footpad.
Only issue i've had is the screws tend to loosen up after the first few runs so I have to tighten them down midday.
I have and will continue to recommend bataleon bindings!
Only got to use it once before the season ended at Bear Mountain. It’s super comfortable and fun for a Beginner/Intermediate like me who’s looking to cruise and hit up parks at the end of the day. Very versatile and can’t wait to try this on real snow next year.
Very lively and springy board, likes to ride aggressive and has a fun shape. Took it in some super deep Montana snow and it worked magic, 3bt really helped and the board ate pillows and cliffs. But when I rode it in harder packed kinda icy snow the 3bt felt very washy and took a while to get used to. (It was really fun for butters tho). The board works well in the park but it definitely takes getting used to coming off a classic shaped board. last thing is the construction sucks. Has so many deck stretches and a couple rail shots already after only a month of having it. Boards super sick but dk if I will be buying Bataleon again
My favorite board ever!!!! So fun and easy to ride is my favore forever, next time I'll try to get the gi.balgod edition just becuas probably is stiffer for the speed.
It rips but isn’t the best on hard pack and icy conditions but soft cruisers or smashing powder this is it!
This board is super fun for a good pow day. The high nose takes a lot of the work out of staying afloat and helps me get more laps in a day. Looking forward to some spring slush with this thing!
Is this it? Has science gone this far? It's warm, cuts wind, keeps you dry, and looks stellar. Price is a bit steep, but the quality is worth it. Love the zippered pockets.
What's not to love? True twin underfoot, wide waist, plenty of pop, responsive, and looks clean.
This is a do everything board, but it isn't a quiver killer. If you view the mountain as a massive jib, this is the board that will take you where you want to go. Don't think too much. Mind off, enjoy the party wave.
I've been snowboarding for 31 years. I feel like I'm a kid again on this board! I'm an advanced female rider on the east coast. This board is AMAZING. It's just so light and easy to turn. I brought it through steeps, trees, the park, and moguls. It was just amazing. I even called in sick to work today so I could go ride it again. I haven't tried it on solid crazy ice yet but I don't think that will be a problem. I haven't been this excited about a new snowboard since 1994.
I'm 5'6 125lbs and I'm riding the 148.
Bought it as a gift but I’m very impressed by the quality .
Almost wanted to keep it … but I normally don’t use a sleeve.
Seeing the quality I ordered 2 more 👌
Lightyears back I had a pair off B’’s SL boots , one off the first with an articulating cuff. The years after, rinding serveral brands, I never found a comparable boot ….. until now.
Trying to put them on in the shop was a nightmare, but on feet the felt better and better. Normally I would have asked half a size larger, the shop advised it, but somehow I knew that the super thight fitting was the better choice. ….
The first day on snow my feet where hurting a little bit, normal by breaking inn the liners. But from day 2 till now there getting better and better …. super comfortable.
On feet the boot feels a bit more flexible, but once strapped in (Astro FW) they really stiffen up.. Stiff enough for carving but surprisingly surfy/forgiving in powder,. So I found my new favorite shoe, thank you Bataleon!!
Only downside siide, is putting them on, that’s not easy and it takes some time. But the reward is huge, you don’t want to take them off anymore.
Great people to deal with
The 3D tech gives me so much confidence to push my limits. The board looks fantastic and performs fantastic.
A perfect lightweight and non bulky Sleeve to protect your board while traveling and to store it for the summer months. Fits my board perfectly and is easy to put on.
Must have to protect your edges fits snug on a 165 wide. Wish i had had before my travel bag ripped from baggage handlers
Everything I want it to be and The Wallie arrived just as fast as my Disaster did! About 3 days!
I love your company. My experience with buying new snowboards is great. Customer support in case of an issue is on another level. I got a new board, it arrived in a few days, nicely packed. It is actually my 3rd Bataleon board and my 2nd Ewil Twin (my favourite so far)
Great product. It’s my first snowboard gear and I enjoyed my new bindings from Bataleon.
This board is something every snowboard should strive to be... it can become almost anything you want it to be due to its versatile ride. It rides so smooth, switch is effortless and somehow feels very twinish when doing freestyle, shittts on powder, board has amazing drive when you lock the knee and push from the tail, carves very good which is surprising for how soft the board is.
The flex on this board is for sure softer than a 6, its honestly close to my evil twin. The design of this board is something else though. Where the carbon is put in the board, it really helps keep the board stable in specific areas yet the board is so playful, tbh all bataleon boards are very freestyle oriented but duuuuude this board feels crazy.
bataleon... idk how you did it. Youve managed to make a board that encapsulates freestyle and freeride so perfectly. The biggest difference between this and a symmetrical twin, this handles pow and backcountry like a champ.
If you're looking for a stiff board try something else like the beyond medals but if you want a good medium flex board that makes everything fun, buy this.
Baught my Beyon Medals 4 weeks ago. Nice riding but board is easy to damage compare to other brands. Contacted Customer Service and they replied it was usual wear and tear. I don’t consider wear and tear when you are basically not moving and your board get damaged.
Personally it was my last Bataleon. Will continue to buy other brands from now on. My kids have other brands, they ride park, are a lot more hard on their boards ant theirs are less damaged!!!
The size small is a small fit for a 147cm board. Too bad I had to stretch it all the way to close. Even though it says that it fits 143-150. Would want to return it but it will take some time.
