Bataleon has taken their ongoing collaboration with Beyond Medals to a new level for this season. Taking cues from the Goliath and Whatever, they have designed a completely new board with an elongated nose and squared off tail. This fresh shape was developed together with Tor Lundström to best fit his fast aggressive riding style. This a serious tool no matter the conditions.

Profile: Camber
Terrain: All-mountain/Powder
Response: Responsive

Features:

• Bi-Ax Lamination: A traditional two-way weave that is light, strong and playful; it keeps the board snappy without adding torsional stiffness, which is great for getting creative.
  
• Ultra Light Core: A 70/30 Paulownia and poplar blend that offers awesome strength to weight.
  
• Hyper Glide S Base: Standard sintered base that’s durable and fast – and even faster when you keep it waxed.
  
• Shock Walls Sidewall: This is Bataleon's Urethane infused sidewall technology. ShockWalls smooth out your ride and are more resistant to impact.
• D.S.T. Super Tubes: Dual Super Tubes, a Super Tube on either side of the board enhances pop and gives the camber more snap.
• 3BT: 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™: 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.

Profile: Medium Camber

Camber profiles are defined from low to high. Higher camber make for more dynamic boards that need to be ridden more aggressively to get maximum performance. Lower camber boards are smoother on lower speeds and in powder. All camber profiles run from nose to tail. higher is not always better...

       

Shape: Directional Twin

Boards that need to excel both on the slopes and out of bounds are shaped with evenly proportioned center and side bases and a medium uplift striking the optimal balance for freestyle and freeriding.

Flex: 7 (Scale 1 - 10)

Power. Precision. Control.

Base: Sintered

High-end base material that is harder, more durable, and faster than extruded bases.
