The Surfer has been turning heads since its launch and continues to set the bar for progressive 3D shapes. The wide, hull-like nose generates unparalleled lift – plowing through deep snow, surfing through slush and mowing over bumps. An aggressive side-cut, combined with the extreme swallow, maximizes edge grip to enable you to get your palms down on the hard pack while naturally sinking the tail in pow.

What's this board's natural home?
Full send in the park?
Elbows down on the trails?
Or chucking roosters somewhere off grid?
Flex
4.0
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.
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.
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.
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.
Carbon Stringers
Our tried and tested carbon layups. We deploy them in different areas to fine-tune the feel of each model.
Ultra Light Core
A 70/30 Paulownia and poplar blend that offers awesome strength to weight.
D.R.S.T. SuperTubes
Dual Radial Super Tubes, similar to DST but with four extra Super Tubes (six in total) running parallel to the board radius, delivering extra power to the edges.
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.
Solid Walls
We use tried and trusted ABS sidewalls for most of the collection. For the best flex to strength ratio.
Pre-Cured Carbon Stringers
Precured carbon offers even livelier rebound than our regular stringers. We use it to stiffen the tail and improve drive through turns on performance boards like the Surfer.
