Flex

SoftStiff

Softer snowboards are easier to press and won’t kick your ass if you make a mistake. Stiffer decks are more stable at speed and super responsive edge-to-edge. Choose your poison.

Features

Technology

At the heart of every Bataleon is a combination of 3BT™ and positive camber. It’s an innovative solution to the profile puzzle that minimizes the potential for edge-catch without sacrificing ollie power or carving performance. From this starting point, we fine-tune each element according to the boards desired riding style.

3D shaping

SideKick™ builds on the concept of Triple Base by increasing the sidebase uplift just outside the widest points of the nose and tail. The tips become more like a hull, boosting float in deep snow and slicing through crud. It also helps the board to roll quickly and evenly from edge to edge.

Construction

Supertubes™ are hollow carbon cylinders that are inserted directly into the core. They reinforce the camber, reduce weight and greatly increase pop. By varying their location we can fine-tune the board’s performance further.

Construction

Glassing

Tri-Ax Lamination

Our three-way fiberglass weave is light, strong and crazy responsive. We use this to beef up the flex pattern on our more aggressive boards.

Woodcore

Light Core

50/50 Paulownia and poplar creates a balanced core that’s lively yet strong.

Base

Ultra Glide S

A premium, 7000-grade sintered base reserved for our high-end models. Packing more molecules into the P-tex means it’s super tough and hauls ass.

Sidewalls

Solid Walls

We use tried and trusted ABS sidewalls for most of the collection. For the best flex to strength ratio.

Tech

D.S.T. SuperTubes

Dual Super Tubes, a Super Tube on either side of the board enhances pop and gives the camber more snap.

Layup & Laminate

Carbon Stringers

Our tried and tested carbon layups. We deploy them in different areas to fine-tune the feel of each model.

Inserts

+2 Backseat Inserts

Backseat inserts are an set of extra inserts 4cm behind the bottom inserts. This allows you to set your bindings all the way back, so you can keep floating on those deep pow days. By shifting your weight more back on the board the nose stays up and the pressure on you back leg is reduced.

AMAZING RIDE

Bought this board for my son, and wow what a huge difference in his riding ability coming from a competitor brand to Bataleon. I myself have been riding Bataleon 3BT for over 12 years and got my son to switch to this board and he is in love with it. Edge to edge carving is seemless and the control he has on pow/groomers is amazing. Also purchased the Bataleon Bindings to go along with this board. Great combo.

The speeding bronco. Better hold tight to them reins.

You better be a good driver, because this thing loves to ride fast. O man does this thing love to move. It just wants to go go go. If you don't ride control it, it will control.

Couldn't be happier. I love this board.

Great Stability

I bought this board to try something different from what I’ve been riding (a directional all-mountain board with camber/rocker/camber profile). I am 5’’5” and weigh about 150 and went with the 152 N. It is about an inch wider underfoot than my old board. I can feel that it takes a bit longer to engage and disengage my turns …but I like that I got a new board with a different feel to it. The transitions between turns aren’t as quick , but I can hold my turns longer. Where I think this board really performs is in fresh powder and through mashed potato snow and tracked out un-groomed conditions. It powers through crud with stability and very little chatter. It’s stable, yet floaty in powder. I’m able to ride switch pretty comfortably when needed. I’d recommend this board if you’re looking for something that will put down long, stable trenches on groomer days., and it will be my go-to on powder days. I will ride my other board if I want something for shorter, quicker turning and carving tricks.

I live in the Pacific North West and have had 5 days on mountain with this board, I couldn't be stoked.

It's stable at high speed, and when going through uneven, chopped up snow.

Ive rode it in knee deep powder from the top of the mtn to heavy mashed potato towards the base and this thing shreds it all. It rides fast on the groomers, isn't catchy on cat tracks and has great hold when icy.

I'm an aggressive rider and this has suprassed my expectations.

Beyond happy with his board.

I Has been a great ride! perfectly nimble and balanced, also doesn't hurt that it looks great!

I use it mainly for groomers but great as an all mountain board!
