Bataleon Snowboard Reviews

Snowboard reviewed by Mikee C - (0) comments.

Like the Pole Tax riots of 1990, the Bataleon Riot want’s to smash everything in sight. Huge booters, halfpipe and hips, you name it the Riot will destroy it. A stiff flexing snowboard macho-man designed for aggressive riders who don’t want to faff around in the mini shred, the adrenaline is pumping and they’re on their way to the pro-line jumps.

Snowboard-Review.com has been a big fan of the Bataleon Evil twin for the last couple of years. It makes freestyle snowboarding so much easier and the Triple Base technology makes takeoffs catch free and landings forgiving. For the 2011 season Bataleon have completely redesigned the shape of the Evil Twin, but we’ll be damned if we can feel the difference. A classic snowboard that smashes the park, but don’t expect much difference from previous years,

The Bataleon Goliath isn’t the fastest board edge-to-edge, but Bataleon’s Triple Base Technology makes the Goliath an incredibly stable and catch free platform to launch big kicker tricks from. No need to worry about catching your toes or heels on big icy jumps TBT keeps your edges free from harm and makes off centre landings far more forgiving than your usual cambered all mountain freestyle snowboard. In its element when ridden on kickers where that camber pop pays dividends.

A suprising little number… well big number actually. Freeride Triple Base Technology sets the Bataleon Undisputed apart from every other cambered Freeride gun on the planet. The Undisputed is stiff enough longitudinally to ride out the most gnarly early morning death cookies. Then there’s the quadraxial glass to keep your edge locked in even when the snow turns sheet ice. Finally, the Freeride TBT makes snowboarding catch free even at frightening speeds and incredibly agile edge-to-edge for such a long and firm flexing snowboard. A snowboard you want in your quiver!

At last the board that people have been asking for has arrived… we’ll kind of. Bataleon have taken their famous Evil Twin shape, slapped a big ‘Rocker’ graphic on the base and kept everything exactly the same. Genius. Next week Snowboard-Review will be selling bricks with ‘GOLD’ written on them, yours for only $30,000.

Take the Bataleon Omni, purge its soul from all materials that have nasty chemicals in them, make the base and sidewalls from recycled PTex and wax it with Soy, the same stuff no Chinese cuisine would be complete without and you’ve got Bataleon’s all new echo warrior the aptly named Project Green.

If you have a ton of gold bullion burning a hole in your high security Swiss bank account the Enemy+++ might be up your street.

A toned down version of the ferocious Undisputed. The Bataleon Omni is a freeride snowboard designed for intermediate snowboarders who want to shred powder and groomers and throw the odd trick into the mix or for Advanced riders who like the idea of Triple Base Tech but don’t want to ride with the aggressive style and pure concentration that the Undisputed demands.

Take the Bataleon Guerilla’s shape and fill it with gnarly materials like Quadraxial glass and Carbon and Kevlar reinforcement and you have The Jam, a snowboard designed to be ridden at ridiculous speeds by aggressive all-mountain freestylers. A nice take on fellow Dutchy Piet Mondrian’s famous compositions on the graphic.

The board of choice for beginners and seasoned shredders alike. With a soft poppy flex, slightly set back stance and of course Bataleon’s renowned Triple Base Technology the Fun Kink makes park snowboarding accesible to all.

The Bataleon Violenza is an ideal snowboard for female riders who want a freestyle snowboard they can spend the day shredding the groomers on, lapping the park or blasting the odd bit of off-piste. Progressive, versatile and forgiving… simple.

Bataleon claim the Distortia is both the Ying and Yang of freestyle snowboarding, that it is both aggressive and forgiving. One thing is for sure, with Twin TBT technology, Bataleon’s Synthduded base, a combination of Biaxial and Triaxial glass and carbon stringers to boot; the Distortia is the perfect board to take experienced female snowboarders to park riding Nirvana.

Those crazy Dutch guys at Bataleon are at it again. Back in 1997 not content with flat bases they introduced the Triple Base Technology, over the last couple of years Bataleon have developed a number of TBT varieties. The Airobic has Bataleon’s Twin TBT which uses the widest flat section at the nose and tail, prfect if you want to avoid slipping out on those single bar nose presses. The Airobic also has Bataleon’s softest flex, perfect for tearing up the mini shred and urban kink sessions.

Effortless to spin off kickers, forgiving on landings, but torsionally stiff enough to ride out the bumpiest of run-outs. The Bataleon Evil Twin is perfect for anyone who loves doing laps of the park or freestyling all over the mountain, an absolute classic!

Soft flex between the bindings and additional carbon stringers tip to tail, result in board with tons of pop and an easy board to press on boxes with forgiving landings. The Distortia is the Evil Twin for women. Definitely a snowboard for advanced female freestylers only.

Great float in powder, a firm flex, set back stance and freeride specific Tripple Base Technology. Bataleon’s best freeride mountain destroyer? Undisputed!

Pack the rest of your boards away, if Bataleon are right you’ll only need to take one board on holiday with you this year. With a forgiving flex, mellow sidecut and 1 inch setback stance the Omni is perfect for Intermediate riders who want to gun the powder in the morning and hit the park in the afternoon.

Carbon and Kevlar reinforced glass, titanium rubber sidewalls and a Nano Hai Lite Speed base, the Bataleon Enemy is the future of snowboard technology today. Leaner than an Olympic marathon runner, and incredibly responsive, the Enemy will take good riders above and beyond. Set back 1/2 an inch for versatility in deeper snow conditions.

A freestyle focused board that’ll kill it all over the mountain. Beefed up with Quadraxial glass and carbon stringers, Bataleon’s ‘The Jam’ is suited to those hitting the bigger kickers in the park, or throwing it down on backcountry kickers with choppy landings.

Tripple Base forgiveness and a soft flex, will help intermediate female riders progress their freestyle riding. The Violenza would be best suited to a girl park rider looking to step up to riding jumps, boxes and rails who has a penchant for My Little Pony and Unicorns.

Laps through the park and short bursts of back country terrain. Bataleon are sure that the Goliath will help you progress everywhere on the mountain. As versatile as a little black dress; but manly and well erm…. a snowboard!

Fun and poppy, but not at all sloppy. Bataleon’s Fun Kink is perfect for those of you who want to jib and spin from the top to the bottom of the mountain. It’s got to be better than my attempt at rhyming!

The Evil Twin on steroids! Kevlar stringers, Quadraxial glass and a super fast sintered base have been thrown into the mixing pot. This board will hold it’s own in the biggest and iciest parks.

Bataleon’s softest offering. The Airobic was buit to lock onto rails, jib everything possible (and somethings never thought possible before) and cruise from kicker to kicker. As park focused as you can get!
