The DISASTER is Bataleon’s classic urban assault weapon of mass destruction and wrecks street spots like crack did in the 80s. A true twin in every sense with JIB TBT for stable board slides with great bend and super legit presses. JIB TBT begins under the bindings to reduce the chances of catching on rails so you get away with it more often! The DISASTER is built around a TOUGHCORE to give it a soft flex without sacrificing strength. The rest of the construction is likewise optimized for riding street, rails, walls and other urban features so this baby can take a beating.

DISASTER GULLI EDITION

The GULLI EDITION is the kind of DISASTER that happens when the hammer of Thor meets a dirty bomb. Designed to slay street spots like the man himself and look good doing it. Constructed around a TOUGHCORE to produce a soft flex with-out sacrificing strength and a hardwearing construction that is built to last, even the graphic is hardcore! Presses will be easy and legit and you get a sexy bend on board slides. A true twin snowboard that features JIB TBT for super stable presses and is also forgiving and lively. The TBT begins under the bindings, and minimizes edge catches on rails, which is great because there is nothing wrong with getting away with it! This board won’t make you into Gulli, but it may help!

AIROBIC

A true twin freestyle board that is suitable for the whole park and more. A responsive CORE CORE and a soft flex work with PARK TBT to balance easy and legit presses and stable board slides with excellent edge-to-edge agility. A perfect soft park flex keeps the AIROBIC playful and forgiving without losing its ability to stick a landing. This maximizes fun on the rail lines without all landings having to be over the bolts or else washed out and also makes the AIROBIC a lot of fun for general riding, both on the mountain and in the backcountry. This is one all round fun park shredder!

GLOBAL WARMER

Sorry, the Global Warmer is not a ‘green board’. This board has Carbon and Fiberglass and Polyurethane glue but it does make an awesome snowboard! A responsive CORE CORE and a soft flex make the GW poppy yet forgiving. PARK TBT balances easy and legit presses with excellent edge-to-edge agility and the targeted carbon reinforcement under the bindings produces a board that can press effortlessly and still remain very stable when landing big jumps. It is the missing link, allowing freestyle riders to have just one board instead of one each for rails and for jumps. Snowboarding turned up to 11!

EVIL TWIN

The backbone of Bataleon’s True Twin range, we made the EVIL TWIN even better by softening the core a little. The CORE CORE guarantees that the board remains very poppy and super stable. A true twin shape with TWIN TBT, the EVIL TWIN is equally at home on big park kickers and backcountry booters. It carves like a dream on groomers and thanks to the soft-mid flex the EVIL TWIN can also take on rails and smash powder runs. The EVIL TWIN is the board for total park domination.

BOSS

The BOSS is to the EVIL TWIN what the GLOBAL WARMER was to the AIROBIC: A GTI version featuring turbo ingredients! With a CORE CORE for responsive carving and loaded pop the BOSS also features a true twin shape with TWIN TBT and a soft-mid flex for fun and forgiving freestyle riding. We also added carbon reinforcement to the binding areas for extra torsional stability and turbo pop! The BOSS carves brilliantly, will let you press like a street slayer, but can also stick a Mach speed landing. This board will make you a boss: Everywhere and on everything!

RIOT

The RIOT is the most tech of our true twins: More poppy than an opium farm in Southeast Asia! A CORE CORE keeps the board super stable, making it more than capable of sticking even the fastest and sketchiest landings. Featuring TWIN TBT and a mid-stiff flex the RIOT also includes Kevlar stringers in the nose and tail sections. These reinforce the nose and tail areas to further enhance your pop with ‘volcanic explosiveness’. The RIOT is the twin you need if you ride balls-to-the-wall! Big kickers, massive drops, enormous backcountry jumps as well as terminal velocity piste and powder riding. If you need to keep smiling when things get serious go for a RIOT.

WHATEVER

The name of this model is the best answer to the question: “What is this board good for?” The combination of a twin contact shape with a slightly directional outline gives the best of both worlds by floating well in powder without sacrificing its freestyle feel! Add in a soft-mid flex for ultimate ‘slay anything’ and ‘get better fast’ credentials. A CORE CORE makes the WHATEVER stable and responsive and FREESTYLE TBT perfectly balances rail stability with agile carving potential. The graphics were inspired by our favourite ever cartoon: Screw you guys, I’m going home! The WHATEVER shreds rails, is great fun on jumps, dominates carving on groomers and can fully handle a mellow powder day. What’s it good for? WHATEVER!

THE JAM

THE JAM is a board for committed all day shredders, whether hunting for bulletproof corduroy; perfect jumps or untracked powder fields. A RECATOR CORE delivers max-imum edge stability and an even power distribution, while carbon and Kevlar stringers improve responsiveness and increase the amount of elastic energy that can be loaded for pop. They also reinforce the nose and tail areas like carbon shock absorbers. ALL MOUNTAIN TBT has a higher total upturn and gives great float in powder either forwards or switch, smooth carves and maximum stability at high speeds. A twin contact shape with a slightly directional outline further improves float without losing switch riding potential. THE JAM can deal with anything and will never let you down.

OMNI

The OMNI is an internationally acclaimed, award winning freeride cruiser because it is awesome! The RECATOR CORE facilitates the delivery of power to the edge. This makes the OMNI very stable even at the highest speeds. FREERIDE TBT features a large uplift at the board’s widest points. This gives excellent float in powder and super agile edge changes. The nose side base sections tilt at large angles to further enhance the TBT, creating super floating powder wings! With a setback stance plus BACKSEAT INSERTS you can drop your bindings all the way back on those bottomless days, reducing back leg burn and improving float. If you like freeriding, shredding the whole mountain and perhaps don’t mind a little freestyle thrown in but you demand the best and most versatile, you need to make it an OMNI!

A RECATOR CORE delivers power equally along the edges, making the CAMEL TOE very stable for a board with an overall soft-mid flex. POW TBT is TBT taken to the max for crazy powder surfing! The broadest and highest TBT wings plus insane side base angles on the nose section makes it prac-tically impossible to submarine! A stubby tail, gentler TBT angles and a set back stance puts more weight automatically over your back foot, making float easier and giving your turns a ‘gas peddle effect’ for maximum powder clouds. Unlike other powder specific boards this board will also perform when taken to the slopes...

There is nothing ‘girly’ about the DISTORTIA except for the female specific PARK TBT for ladies’ lighter weights and a narrower outline for ladies’ smaller feet. PARK TBT is good for all types of freestyle riding. It pops like a cambered board, but presses like a rocker and is very forgiving. A true twin board with a responsive CORE CORE and a soft-mid flex keeps the board playful and super poppy without losing stability at high speeds. The DISTORTIA is an all round park destroyer for girls who shred. You know when we make a board it has to perform with crazy pop and have high performance, regardless of any gender issues.

DISASTER GULLI EDITION

159W

TRIPLE BASE TECHNOLOGY

A 3D base shape, combining full tip to tail

camber and rocker that actually works and

improves your ride in all conditions. Since the

earliest days of snowboarding there has been a

continuing search for the ultimate snowboard

shape. We like to believe that somewhere

around the turn of the milenium we discovered

that holy grail and we have been polishing and

refining our idea’s ever since.

Over the past few seasons there have been

many new ideas in snowboard design, with the

majority relating to their camber. A traditional

camber snowboard is raised off the ground

between the feet such that the snow contact

edge forms a curve under pressure. This allows

the rider to carve, but it also causes the widest

points of the board to dig into the snow upon

turn initiation. A rocker or reverse camber board

has it’s central portion on the ground and the

widest points at its nose and tail raised. This

solves the problem of the edges digging in and

this is what makes rockers so forgiving to ride.

However, when the edge is under pressure it

is no longer pushed into the snow outside the

bindings, making rocker boards twitchier to

carve. There have been numerous attempts to

extract the best of both worlds and to somehow

marry rocker’s fun to camber’s performace.

Call us arrogant but these attempts were all

rather a waste of time because the patented

Triple Base Technology used in Bataleon

Snowboards had already achieved this almost

ten years ago by combing a rail to rail concave

with a tip to tail camber.

TBT seperates the nose and tail sections

sections down its width into 2 sidebases and

one center base and combines this with a full tip

to tail traditional camber. The side bases in nose

and tail start their uplift in the binding area and

then gradually increase their angle towards the

widest points of the board.

Along the edges in nose and tail (side bases), a

Bateleon board is pressed to already have the

shape of a traditional camber board when that

edge is under pressure. Therefore the board

does not need to flex to initiate a turn and it

carves smoother becuase it does not snap back

to a flat state after pressure is releases. Because

TBT boards retain a full tip to tail traditional

camber in the centre base section they can

store up mad pop for ollies so you don’t end up

riding a wet towel.

It’s hard to believe that the ultimate shape,

marrying the best of rocker and camber in one

board with no negative side effects, is already

out there. And has been for more than 10 years.

This does not mean that we just ride it without

improving. We now have 7 different flavors of

TBT for you to choose from. All specified to a

certain type of riding. All better than anything out

there. But don’t believe us!

Triple Base Technology divides the

nose and tail in 3 sections. A left

side base to go left, a centre base to

go straight and a right side base to

go right.

The turned up sidebases make

initiating turns faster with less effort.

The increased uplift starting from

zero at the bindings to maximum

at the widest point puts the control

under your feet.

As you go into the trun the grip

increases out from your binding

to a full traditional edge grip over

the entire effective edge when fully

commited.

The uplifted sidebases make your

board forgiving when going straight

but the edge is still there when put

on edge.

Because the board is flat between

the bindings with full tip to tail

camber down the entire centre

of the board you keep all the

performance and control of a

traditional camber board. The

angled sidebases give you all the

playfullness, foregiveness and

powder float we have come to

appreciate from rocker shapes.

TBT gives you both full tip to tail

camber and rocker in one shape

and it actually works.

JIB TBT is great for jibbing and

urban riding. JIB TBT is completely

symmetrical about the nose and tail. JIB

TBT has the biggest center base flat of

all our TBT flavors. The extra centre flat

base width stabilizes your slides and

presses. On the side bases the TBT

uplift begins under your feet for a super

loose and forgiving effect with the TBT

uplift. JIB TBT comes with a very mellow

flat camber to make pressing easy but

still give plenty of pop to your ollies.

TWIN TBT is great for park riding. In

this shape we combine a traditional

smoothly curving tip to tail camber.

Because of a resonably wide center

base flat TWIN TBT retains a large

enough flat base width for easy presses

and stability on rail slides and landings.

TWIN TBT boards feature longer

contact lengths than JIB- or PARK TBT

for more stability at speed. This makes

TWIN TBT suitable for riding all kinds of

parks and terrain. The extra uplift in the

sidebases after the effective edge ends

greatly improve riding in uneven terrain

and negotiating tight transitions

FREESTYLE TBT is the most ‘all round’

TBT shape in the range. Here the

widths of the left side base, center flat

base and right sidebase are divided

into almost 3 equal parts. This rail to

rail bend is combined with a traditional

tip to tail camber profile on the centre

base section. Freestyle TBT comes

with longer contact length to minimise

twitchiness at high speed. Freestyle

TBT is still symmetrical about the nose

and tail for equal performance when

riding switch as forwards. A ‘good-for-

everything-shape’ with fast edge-to-

edge freestyle looseness and great

overall stability.

ALL MOUNTAIN TBT has a slightly

narrower centre flat base section than

FREESTYLE TBT and it’s camber profile

is a bit more aggressive. Together with

a longer flat section under the feet

it delivers faster riding with superb

response edge-to-edge and maximum

stability at high speed. With a very

slightly directional TBT, the board is

optimized to ride forwards, but is more

than capable of performing switch when

neccesary. ALL MOUNTAIN TBT does

what it says on the tin: performs over the

whole mountain. The extra uplift in the

sidebases after the effective edge ends

greatly improve the float in powder.

This flavor of TBT is designed especially

for off piste charging and on piste

carving. The narrowest centre flat base

width maximises edge-to-edge agility

and the widest TBT sidebase wings

with increased uplift angles on the nose

guarantees superb float through the

deepest powder. Like the stance, the

flat section between the feet is set back

to put more turning power over your

back foot making it carve like a dream.

Tapered tail TBT is the final ingrediënt,

allowing you to power out of turns,

lofting massive powder clouds.

POW TBT is TBT on steroids, with

everything maxed out to get that feeling

of surfing powder. The same narrow

centre flat base width as for FREERIDE

TBT, but with both the TBT and the

stance set way back. Insane uplift angles

on the nose sidebases means that you

float effortlessly no matter how deep

it gets. The shorter, tapered tail TBT

works with the camel toe shape to put

the riders weight right over the back foot

without them having to lean and ensures

the most powder possible is put up into

the air on each turn. Unlike most powder

specific shapes ou there POW TBT still

holds its own when you find yourself on

a slope.

PARK TBT is great for park riding and

jibbing with flat center base widths and

lengths in between JIB and TWIN TBTs.

PARK TBT comes with a very mellow

flat camber profile for legit presses. This

combo of sidebase uplift , wide center

base and mellow flat camber makes

PARK TBT perfect for boards that

need high speed park stability but still

retain all the jib capability. PARK TBT is

symmetrical on the nose and tail for the

same ride switch as forwards.

Because TBT boards are pressed with the

shape of a traditional camber board under

carving pressure, no flexion is needed to initiate

a turn. This makes carving easier and our

boards feel narrower and more manoeuvrable

than a regular board of the same width. When

switching edges, the edge grip of a Bataleon

board fades out as the base becomes flatter.

When riding on a flat base the uplifted edges at

the widest points are less likely to catch and the

edge grip fades back in again as the opposing

edge is engaged. These factors add up to give

super fluid edge-to-edge transfers.

On a conventional snowboard, an under rotation

will often result in an out-of-control landing, or

worse, an edge catch to scorpion. TBT is a lot

more forgiving on landings. This is because the

edges of our boards are raised at the widest

points and are therefore far less likely to dig in.

The board therefore tends to automatically track

back to going straight on landings, even when

the rider is off balance, since it is the flat base

section which hits the snow first rather than the

nose or tail side base sections.

Because a Triple Base Board is pre-shaped in

a concave at its wider parts, those parts do not

dig in and plough through the snow, as they tend

to do on traditional camber boards. Less friction

makes for faster and smoother straight lining. No

more worries on flat cat tracks!

The concaved side edge sections on the nose

and tail float way better in deep powder so you

sink less than on a regular camber board. As

well as reducing the occurrence of cartwheels

due to a submarined nose, you also need less

weight on your back foot, which stops that leg

from burning so bad! TBT means that you can

keep riding your freestyle board when the snow

starts to fall. Or, switch to Freeride TBT and all

these benefits get turned up to 11.

When straight lining, the dynamic base shape

means the only edge section in contact with the

snow is where you want it - between your feet.

Because the edges at the widest points are out

of the snow, there are fewer edge catches and

fewer scorpions. Remember, tilting the board to

only three degrees will give you full edge contact

again so this is most useful when milking as

much speed as possible.

Because the Triple Base has lifted edges over

the whole region outside of the bindings, the

board will not dig in as much as the equivalent

traditional camber board. The reduced pressure

on the widest parts of the board results in fewer

vibrations and allows the edges to remain in

full contact with the snow. This makes slower

turns less twitchy and faster turns easier to

control. The icier the conditions, the more TBT

outperforms the equivalent traditional camber

board.

Without the aggressive side edge sections near

the nose and tail, butters are easier and more

fluid and fewer of them end up with you lying on

the floor.

As the powder gets tracked, the traverses get

longer. TBT helps you to reach the next stash

first because the widest section being raised out

of the snow makes staying on the traverse track

almost too easy. Way more relaxed than you are

used to!

Shorter total contact edges when going straight

means less drag and more speed. Less edge

catches means extra confidence and again,

more speed. In general, more speed. Now there

is no reason you shouldn’t win every race back to

the lodge.

A TBT board is more versatile than a traditional

camber or rocker board. Any TBT board is more

forgiving than its regular camber counterpart

when both are equally stiff. Also, a longer TBT

board can be used for freeriding, without losing

manoeuvrability, or a shorter TBT board can be

adopted for urban riding and jibbing, without

sacrificing control. TBT also allows you to ride a

wider board because our boards feel narrower

than traditional camber ones! TBT combines the

best of cambered and rocker boards, enabling

you to ride all terrains on just one stick!t

When straight lining, you need less effective

edge than in a turn. In fact, it’s better to have less!

The camber and side cut of a traditional board

leaves a tendency for the edges to dig down

into the snow at the board’s widest points. This

causes the rider to alternate between toe side

and heel side pressure to remain in control when

straight lining and this sacrifices speed. With a

TBT board all you need to do is point it and relax!

On Bataleon boards the edges are concaved

at the widest parts of the board, making

straight lining less twitchy so you rarely need to

compensate for edge catches.

Conventional snowboards lose speed in

transitions because the widest part of the

nose digs aggressively into the transition when

travelling from horizontal to vertical. In TBT

boards these parts are not even in contact with

the snow and this offers a smoother and faster

line from transition to vert. In the pipe, more

speed up the wall means more air out of the

coping and it is easier to go bigger!

Boards with traditional camber have more pop

than rockers because they can store more

elastic energy, but when you add TBT to the mix

things get explosive. Every board comes pre-

loaded with extra pop thanks to the concave

nose and tail profiles. When flexing the tail for

an ollie the forces are directed and focussed

towards the centre of the tail section where they

seriously pop you out. It’s like snapping an ollie

using a brand new skateboard on fresh concrete.

TBT ADVANTAGES

Made with a pressure bonded wood composite

that is very hard to break, yet very flexible.

Especially developed to reach a soft jib flex

without sacrificing strength.

Poplar core with hardwood reinforcements

along the insert rows. This increases the board’s

core strength and channels stored energy to

deliver more pop.

Poplar core with hardwood reinforcements

along the sidewalls. The inserts maximise

power delivery and precision during turns by

reinforcing stiffness along the edge so the

board twitches less.

Easy to repair and takes a beating! Low

maintenance and still slides well with irregular

waxing, not that we are condoning anything

other than a militant waxing regime (like

Rihanna’s).

Fast as fuck! Great wax absorption and as hard

as nails. These bases come with factory wax

already infused. Top up regularly to get the most

out of it.

Bi-ax laminates over and under the wood

core include fibreglass layers aligned in two

directions at 45 degrees to the edges. This

creates an easy and forgiving flex, which

allows you to really feel the terrain.

Tri-ax laminates over and under the wood

core include fibreglass layers aligned in three

directions (two at 45 degrees to the edges

and the extra one along the boards length).

This generally increases the stiffness and

stability of the board to deliver maximum

precision in your riding.

Hammer edges are thicker, tougher, stronger

and more durable than your average edges.

That’s good when they are up against metal rails

and concrete stairs, but it is also useful when the

powder is not quite as deep as it looks!

Thinner lightning edges enable you to carve with

more feeling and precision and they weigh less.

The 4x4/16 insert pack allows for a wide

range of stances and is great for rocking

them extra wide.

The 4x2/20 pattern allows you to attach your

bindings with scientific precision.

The 4x2/22 pattern offers maximum precision in

your binding position with 22 inserts for a large

The 4x2/24 pack is the ultimate in flexibility.

Maximum precision, maximum width options,

maximum PARTY!

Everyone knows carbon is the hot shit right

now. Super strong, super light and super dope.

Carbon stringers under the wood cores in our

boards save weight and work in extension to

add strength, reinforce targeted sections and

focus pop depending on their alignment to the

fibreglass.

Basalt stringers are from volcanoes you

know? When put under the cores of our

snowboards they work in extension to

increase responsiveness. They also help us

to fine tune the lay ups for more pop without

torsional twitchiness.

Backseat inserts let you drop your stance all the

way back to let you keep shredding your trusty

stick on the deepest of deep days.

on our policy.

OUTLINE SHAPE VS CONTACT SHAPE

Outline shape refers to the outline of the board

(imagine drawing round the edge). This can be ei-

ther twin or directional, where directional means

that the nose is longer than the tail.

Contact shape is the shape of the board that is in

contact with the snow when a rider stands on it.

Therefore a board may have a directional outline

shape but a twin contact shape. In that case, the

nose is longer than the tail, but the portions of the

base in contact with the snow are the same in

both directions. A board like this would feel like a

freestyle board to ride, but handle uneven snow

better.

EDGE BEVEL

All our boards leave the factory with a 2-3

degree edge bevel. Together with the TBT shape

this means you get an ultra smooth ride straight

out of the plastic. No more de-tuning your

beautiful new board! As well as being a pain to

do, detuning reduces carving performance so

skipping it gives you a better ride.

MAINTENANCE

TBT boards can be maintained using Stone and

Belt grinding. Bataleon boards can go through

the machine as normal, but two out of the three

feeding wheels need to be removed to allow

the TBT base to pass through unhindered.

Experienced tune up shops already know about

this, but when you hand in your board for a tune

up make sure your shop knows what they are

doing. If necessary, point them in the direction of

the maintenance instruction videos, which can

be found on our website.

PARK 03

TBT snowboards are way more versatile than

rocker, traditional camber and flat boards. This

makes categorizing them far more difficult. Even

when we place a board in a certain category, it

is not limited to just that style of riding, that’s just

where it excels. The board will still handle well

in other categories and that’s why we give you

‘Terrain Scores’; so that you can see the range

of conditions in which the board will perform.

Below is an example for a board that is sick for

all round freestyle, with very good park abilities,

good for powder riding and is satisfactory on

jibs.

Our flex-o-meter uses a scale from 0 to 10,

where 0 is softer than the class geek and 10 is

effectively a barn door. In the flex rating you will

find three numbers. One for the nose flex, one

for the flex between the bindings and the last for

the tail flex. For example, 5-6-5 rating denotes

a board with medium flex that is slightly stiffer

between the bindings. This type of flex allows

boards to simultaneously press well and be

stable at speed. Happy days.

A soft board will feel more playful under your feet

and is generally better for riding rails and doing

butters whereas a stiffer board will be more

stable on landings and at high speeds. However,

please note that the lifted base sections on a

TBT board make a stiffer board feel more poppy

than a traditional board of comparable stiffness.

Try it out for yourself!

FLYER

The FLYER is meant for all kinds of snowboarding and riders of all ability levels. Whether you cruise park and piste with your buddies or take on big mountain riding and fearsome backcountry kickers, the FLYER can tackle it all.

Built around the VERYLIGHT CORE: A poplar wood core, which is enhanced with Paulowina wood. This makes the core super light but it remains strong enough to beat all of our break tests. We gave the core a mid flex and used core profiling to produce a flex pattern that is slightly so"er outside the bindings than between them. The core is wrapped in BI-AX laminate layers. These are aligned along the board’s length and between its edges above and below the core. They create an easy and forgiving flex that permits you to directly feel the snow under your feet. BI-AX lami-nate layers do not increase torsional sti!ness so the FLYER has a mid flex along its length, whilst remaining torsionally so". This allows it to be super responsive, charge at high speeds and give very stable landings, all without sacrificing its forgiving nature.

We also added some extra layups: V-shaped carbon stringers on the nose and tail connect their centres to the heel and toe edges under the bindings. These further increase torsional sti!ness outside of the bindings as well as storing extra elastic energy and focusing it right on the very back centre of the board when ollieing. The further back the pivot point of the ollie, the more elastic energy can be loaded into the tail and the higher the resulting pop! We also included cork

stringers that run the full length of the board, between the inserts and the edges. These dampen vibrations and help to distribute power along the edge evenly. This is especially useful at high speeds and during icy traverses when cork reduces edge chatter and twitchiness. The result is a board with a mid flex, both torsionally and along its length that is as solid and stable as a much sti!er board.

FREESTYLE TBT is the most versatile of the TBT profiles. The centre base (non TBT) section features a traditional camber profile and has a medium width to balance edge-to-edge agility with flat base stability. The side base TBT upli" begins outside the bindings to give a longer contact length between your feet (without TBT). This improves stability when sliding on a flat base. FREESTYLE TBT is symmetrical about the nose and tail for equal performance when riding switch as forwards so it represents a ‘good for everything’ shape: Fast and forgiving edge-to-edge looseness as well as great overall stability. The FLYER features a true twin contact shape, FREESTYLE TBT and a centred stance. This makes it feel generally just like a twin. However, the nose of a FLYER is 1 cm longer than its tail, with the 1cm being added to the tip region that never touches the snow. The extra length includes transitioned TBT, which li"s the tip even further, making the extra length feel a whole lot longer and improving float. So when you find yourself crashing through a trashed powder field, a bombed out landing or cruddy spring snow, a FLYER won’t let you down.

The FLYER features LIGHTNING EDGES, which are our lighter and thinner edges and give your carves more feeling and precision. The inserts are centred and have a PARTY PATTERN: 24 holes give the largest range of possible stance widths and ultimate control over the exact binding positions. We also included BACKSEAT INSERTS so you can drop your bindings all the way back on those bottomless days. This puts weight automatically over your back foot, reducing back leg burn and increasing float. Finally, the FLYER has a sintered base for maximum hardness and higher top speeds.

The graphics are classic and simple. A matte and gloss black topsheet and a black base with transparent sections that allow you to see the core. The FLYER is intended for all round riders who always aim for powder when it is available, but who are happy to ride the rest of the hill when it is not. One board for riding everything: From park and groomers to backcountry kickers and open faces.

NORTH

The NORTH is a freeride cruiser that can step it up to handle even the gnarliest terrain. It also has an all new very special feature: The ‘split’ option!

The NORTH is constructed around the VERYLIGHT CORE: A poplar wood core that is enhanced with Paulowina wood to make it super light but allow it to remain tough as hell. It stood up to every single one of our break tests. We gave the core a so"-mid flex and used core profiling to produce a flex pattern that is slightly so"er outside the bindings than between them. The core is wrapped in TRI-AX laminate layers. Two layers are aligned at 45 degrees to the edges, while the third runs the length of the board from tip to tail. The addition of the third axis increases torsional sti!ness and responsiveness as well as further enhancing high-speed stability.

We also added some extra layups. Two straight carbon stringers run the full length of the contact edges, joining the board’s widest points. These add nothing to a NORTH’s torsional sti!ness but increase sti!ness along the length to an overall mid flex. When combined with the TRI-AX lami-nates, the result is a board that has a mid flex both along its length and torsionally. The NORTH remains lighter than a normal board of the same spec because we can use a thinner core with-out sacrificing strength thanks to the carbon reinforcements. In addition, the carbon strips store up extra elastic energy, which delivers big pop and they contribute to an even power delivery along the full contact edge. We also added two cork stringers that run the full length of the board between the inserts and the edges. These dampen vibrations along the edges, especially useful at high speeds and during traverses, when the edges of a NORTH are far less likely to twitch or chatter.

Finally, the NORTH includes a 2 cm wide strip of bamboo down the very centre of the board. Bamboo is very strong, flexible, has good return and is a renewable material. The bamboo con-tributes towards making the NORTH super poppy, but it has another use! You can split your NORTH for touring! There’s nothing new in splitting a board, but when you split the bamboo strip in the centre of the board, the near perfect alignment of bamboo fibers along the length of the board ensures that the newly revealed sidewalls remain impervious to water without needing further treatment! This means you can split your board as soon as you get it or ride it as normal for sometime and then split it! This o!ers the best of both worlds for anyone interested in trying a split board without wanting to take the hit on a ready prepared one or wanting to D.I.Y. it!

The FREERIDE TBT used on the NORTH has a narrow centre base (non TBT) section, giving it a high total upturn at its widest points. The result is even better float in powder as well as more ag-ile carving. FREERIDE TBT is also directionally optimized, with the length of the TBT sections o!set by the same amount as the stance. The nose side base sections also feature larger angles to fur-ther enhance the TBT by creating super floating powder wings! The centre flat section is set back in line with the stance and the tail TBT is shorter and shallower. The total width of the tail is also a couple of millimeters narrower than the nose. This produces a ‘gas pedal’ e!ect, where the board powers through and accelerates out of turns! While this is hardly noticeable for general riding (the NORTH is still excellent for riding switch), it becomes very noticeable when cranking a turn in powder, as the ‘gas pedal’ ensures a larger powder cloud that makes you look like a freeride superstar!

The NORTH features a 2 cm setback stance as standard that accommodates the longer nose TBT section, a precise insert pattern with 20 inserts for a good range and maximum precision on binding placement, together with optional backseat inserts so you can put your bindings all the way back on those bottomless days. This puts most weight automatically over your back foot, reducing back leg burn and increasing float. The NORTH is directional in both contact and outline shapes and optimized for backcountry riding.

The construction is completed by LIGHTNING EDGES; our lighter and thinner edges that enable you to carve with more feeling and better precision. We also included a sintered base, to give the highest possible top speeds. The design remains a simple combination of matte and gloss black on the top sheet, but now splitting the board in half lengthways along the bamboo strip. The base graphic is likewise split in half along the boards length with one half being black and the other being a sweet full colour, photo real image, featuring artwork by Taka Sudo. Very eye catching!

The NORTH is great for all types of riding: Just fine for cruising with friends, but take one to the backcountry and this board will really come into its own when things get deeper, steeper and more full on!

SHAKA

The SHAKA is intended to be a fun to ride powder board that gives an amazing ride in any back-country terrain, from the tightest trees to the steepest face and makes backcountry riding less e!ort and more enjoyable. It also has a super special feature to make it twice the board!

The SHAKA is constructed around the VERYLIGHT CORE: A poplar wood core enhanced with Pau-lowina wood strips. These make it super light but allow it to remain strong enough to beat all of our break tests. We gave the core a mid flex and used core profiling to produce a flex pattern that is slightly so"er outside the bindings than between them. The core is wrapped in TRI-AX laminate layers. Two layers are aligned at 45 degrees to the edges, while the third runs the length of the board from tip to tail. The addition of the third axis increases torsional sti!ness and responsive-ness as well as further enhancing high-speed stability. When combined with its unique shape, this construction is just perfect for shredding in any powdery conditions!

The SHAKA employs POW TBT. This is TBT maxed out for full on powder surfing! The narrowest centre base (non TBT) section gives the widest TBT powder wings. Add in extreme side base an-gles on the nose section and the total TBT upli" is huge, making the nose practically impossible to submarine! The nose and tail side base TBTs are set back in line with the stance, making the nose side base longer and the tail side base shorter. The tail features a sweet cut back shape that gives maximum rooster tails! The stubby tail and a set back stance move the centre flat section to back-wards, putting more weight over your back foot. Because of the shorter side base length on the tail, its TBT is shorter, but we also made the upli" angle shallower. The total width of a SHAKA’s tail is a couple of millimeters narrower than its nose. These design features all work together to

produce a ‘gas pedal’ e!ect: The SHAKA powers through and accelerates out of turns, throwing up a shitload of snow!

We also added some extra layups. Two V-shapes of carbon strips connect the toe and heel edg-es at the nose and tail with the centre of the board under the bindings. On the tail this magnifies the ‘gas pedal’ e!ect as well as storing extra elastic energy to enhance pop and reinforcing the tail in general. At the front they distribute any forces more evenly across the nose and stop it from becoming twitchy at high speeds. We also included two cork stringers that run the full length of the board between the inserts and the edges. These dampen vibrations along the edges, which is especially useful at high speeds and during icy traverses.

Finally, the SHAKA includes a 2 cm wide strip of bamboo down the very centre of the board. Bam-boo is very strong, flexible, has good return and is a renewable material. The bamboo makes the SHAKA more poppy than a ‘methed out’ panda, but it has another use! You can now split your board! There’s nothing new in splitting a board, but when you split the bamboo strip in the cen-tre of a SHAKA, the near perfect alignment of the bamboo fibers along the length of the board ensures that the newly revealed sidewalls remain impervious to water without needing further treatment! This makes splitting your board easier than ever and means you can do it as soon as you get it or ride it normally for sometime and split it later! This o!ers the best of both worlds for anyone interested in trying a split board without wanting to take the hit on a ready prepared one or wanting to D.I.Y. it!

A 2 cm setback stance and crazy TBT shape and angles allow you to ride the SHAKA much shorter and so"er than you would ride any other powder board. The ‘spoon’ nose floats like a much lon-ger and sti!er board through even the deepest powder, making it great for riding big mountain lines. The short, cut back tail can turn tightly like a much shorter board, which is great through tight trees. These e!ects work together to ensure that every turn will put the most snow possible into the air to leave you feeling like the man! Powder riding will be even more fun! The construction is completed with LIGHTNING EDGES; our lighter and thinner edges that allow you to carve with more feeling and precision, together with an extruded base for easy repairs. The inserts have a PARTY PATTERN of 24 holes, giving the most stance options possible: Max-imum precision of placement over the widest possible range of stance widths. We also added optional backseat inserts so you can put your bindings all the way back on those bottomless days. This puts most of your weight automatically over your back foot, reducing back leg burn and further increasing float.

The graphics are minimal, featuring a burst of colour and a transparent section on the top sheet and a black base. The SHAKA lets you ride bottomless powder all day with minimal back leg burn and turns on a sixpence during tree runs. It floats so well that you will be able to cover more of the flat on the ride out than any of your friends, leaving less distance to wade! Enjoy your best ever powder day on a SHAKA.

COLORS

With the tragic events of the past few years, helmeted snowboarders are fast becoming ubiquitous. Even low-profile helmets add a few centimeters onto the size of your head and most hoods are simply not designed to accommodate this. The result is a head that looks like a bubble from behind and a tight-fitting collar that gets all twisted up. We widened the hood so that it comfortably covers a helmet, but we also widened the collar, giving the hood the ability to turn with your head and helmet without garroting you. Now you can finally ride in a helmet without looking like an idiot! Of course the hood is fully adjustable and so can be easily fitted to an un-helmeted head using the drawstrings.

HELMET HOODINI™ BAT PITS™ FREE ZIPS™

We paid attention to our tailoring and seams in order to achieve cuts that are optimized for shredding. Of course, looking good is also important, but what’s the good of looking smart if your jacket doesn’t work for snowboarding in? Snowboarding involves lots of moving and twisting. Badly cut jackets get left behind, becoming tangled and riding up. Bataleon jackets are cut so that they allow you to raise your arm all the way above your head, without the hem rising above your waist. Now you can tweak that method all the way without having to sort your jacket out on the ride out. Don’t get robbed of your afterbang with Bataleon outerwear.

Every rider knows how much it sucks when your vent zips get stuck open on a cold windy chairlift.So we fixed that. We stitched in smart elastic loops that shaped to always push the mesh lining away from the zipper. This makes our zips work every time, don’t get stuck and can even be operated one handed. Get us!

Hidden in the cargo pockets you will find an elastic cord to control the PANT ELEVATOR. Pull this to lift the back of you pants up at the back of your legs. Now you don’t destroy your pants when walking! Just release the cord stopper to go back to the original pant position. No more crazy pant roll ups needed before and after riding...

MIDAS PANT

Our MIDAS PANT is more of a ‘classic’ snowboard pant. The fit is slightly more relaxed and the construction slightly more tech than the LIMA PANT. The more relaxed style fits easily over your boot, without being too baggy. However, they can be made super baggy for the OGs out there by sizing in XL. The cut accommodates generous pockets on the legs together with four large pockets in the usual places: two zipped on the front and two with popper closures on the back. With embossed leather branding, an inside lace belt and chunky belt loops on the waistline, targeted insulation and double layer reinforcement in critical areas. The MIDAS PANT looks great, comes with plenty of pocket space and can offer you comfort even in tough conditions.

The MIDAS PANT is styled to go with the BALDER JACKET but also looks good with the DORA JACKET.

DORA JACKET

The look of the DORA JACKET varies with size. The jacket is cut to a length that covers the waistline of your pants even when the jacket is close fitting. This allows you to go a size down from that which you normally wear for a close fit that still works. Go a size up to get the ‘tall look’ of a longer jacket that is still more fitted than your average baggy jacket. Or stick to your normal size to achieve a fit so nice you would wear the jacket to town

The DORA features all the stuff you would expect from a snowboard jacket: big pockets, adjustable waist and cuffs, a goggle pocket, snow proof cuff Velcro, a media pocket with headphone port and guidance, waterproof zips and a lift pass pocket.

The DORA JACKET is styled to go with the LIMA PANTS but also looks good with the MIDAS PANTS.

LIMA PANT

The LIMA PANT is functional and casual. Fully teched out, but styled on straight cut jeans. The leg is cut straight from the ankle to the crotch and is designed to snugly fit over your boot without having to resort to the dreaded ‘boot cut’ style. A classic five pocket design with an embossed leather patch at the waist, chunky belt loops and an inside lace belt complete the ‘jeans’ styling. Of course, like jeans, the look can be personalized by size with emos rocking XS and gangstas in XLs.

The LIMA PANT is styled to go with the DORA JACKET but also works well with the BALDER JACKET.

The second of our new ‘shred casuals’, the DESA WIND JAMMER is a riding shirt meets coach jacket meets hoody meets snowboard shell jacket. Yes the DESA is teched out to shred in! The outer layer is cut like a shirt, including two chest pockets and popper buttons. It is rated to 10K for waterproofness and breathability. We included some extra features that make it sick to ride in: The hem at the back drops down to provide some protection from the wet and cold when sitting down to clip in to afford protection from the wind and cold. The DESA also includes a cotton hood that is attached to the inside of the collar but looks like you are wearing a hoody under the shirt.

Get a DESA windjammer to get that casual shred look when the weather is less than perfect.

Here is a small selection of tshirts and hoodies based on our board graphics. The quality of the artwork speaks for itself so we concentrated on making sure that the ts and hoodies have good fits – not emo tight and not skier baggy. We made black tshirts featuring the DISASTER and GULLI EDITION graphics and a white tshirt printed with the GLOBAL WARMER “Dead Dictators” board graphic. We also made hoodies: A track grey zip-up hoody featuring the DISASTER graphic and a black pullover hoody with “Bataleon” across the chest in the GLOBAL WARMER font. Our tshirts and hoodies are made properly! This means that a black item will stay black even after a lot of washes. The prints will last without undue fading and the whole item will not turn into a shapeless bag after 3 months!
