The Men’s Disaster is a best-seller year after year. We do not have a chef on staff, but we believe that the special sauce is in the freestyle-focused features working together in perfect harmony. A true-twin shape, our patented 3D base flavoring, SideKick™ technology, a relaxed positive camber, and a jib-friendly soft flex are blended to make a perfect freestyle concoction for the beginner to advanced snowboarder.
Camber Profile
Low 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...
3D Shape
3BT™ & Sidekick™
Combining the responsiveness of traditional tip-to-tail camber with the dynamic shaping properties of Triple Base Technology and the performance boosting Sidekick feature makes for a 3D snowboarding experience like no other.
Features
Technology
At the heart of every Bataleon is a combination of 3BT and positive camber. Its 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
Glassing
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.
Woodcore
Core Core
Full poplar with hardwood beech stringers to strengthen the boards backbone, reinforce the inserts and increase pop.
Base
Hyper Glide S
Our standard sintruded base thats durable and fast and even faster when you keep it waxed.
Sidewalls
Flex Walls
Our Urethane Poured Sidewalls offer exceptional shock absorption, reducing chatter and vibration for a smoother, more stable ride. Flexwalls provide flexibility and resilience, allowing the board to maintain its integrity even in extreme conditions. With superior impact resistance, they ensure your snowboard performs at its peak, season after season.
Inserts
24 Inserts
A-grade German stainless steel inserts make sure you are locked to your board. These high quality inserts can take years of binding stance switches.
