Bataleon Fun Kink - 2010

Quick
stats: Recommended for park riding.

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!

Manufacturer's Description:

This board spells F.U.N. Everyone has different ideas of fun. For some of you it’s the bliss of throwing a hardway down some crazy kink, for others it’s popping a nollie frontflip off something stupid and of course there are those that think being strapped down and peeed in the face is fun, but lets not get into that kinda stuff. For all of you that just like shredding with the fun button turned all the way up, the Fun.Kink is your stick. Throw it down a rail, hit a kicker, do whatever. We stopped counting the Dude-this-is-the-funnestboard- I’ve-ever-been-on-raves but that doesn’t mean we don’t love to hear that stuff.

hello, i ride locally usually park and jibbing im looking at evil twin or the fun kink . the only thing i dont like about the twin is the stiffness other then that the board is awesome . in the other half with the fun kink its a directional board is it noticeable ?. can i get your opinion please thank you

The Fun Kink’s still designed primarily for hitting the park, so Bataleon won’t have compromised it’s switch riding by making it too directional. It also has the Freestyle focused TBT, which has a slightlty narrower flat section, this will improve the Fun Kinks edge to edge response. If you want a super soft board with the Evil Twin’s shape, you could look at the Airobic.
