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.
Boss
Serious fun.
If you’re serious about growing your bag of tricks then look no further than the Boss. It’s our most advanced true twin shape, packing a Swiss Paulownia/Poplar woodcore infused with AirRideTM dampening technology for explosive pop out of transitions and buttery smooth landings. Top spec glassing and a central carbon SuperTubeTM gives you all the extra stability you need for high speed take-offs – which is handy, because the base is fast as hell.

What's this board's natural home?
Full send in the park?
Elbows down on the trails?
Or chucking roosters somewhere off grid?
Flex
6.0
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
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.
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.
AirRide™ is an additive we include within the woodcore of select models, which dampens vibrations and makes riding smoother at high speeds. It’s like having a suspension system in your snowboard.
Construction
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.
Super Ultra Light Core
Our lightest core features an 80/20 blend of Paulownia and poplar for the ultimate in featherweight response.
C.S.T. SuperTubes
Central Super Tube, a single Super Tube down the middle of the board enhances pop without stiffening the board torsionally. Great for jibbing.
Carbon Stringers
Our tried and tested carbon layups. We deploy them in different areas to fine-tune the feel of each model.
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.
