- 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.
- 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.
- 3BT Technology Triple Base - At the heart of every Bataleon is a combination of 3BTTM 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, Bataleon fine-tune each element according to the boards desired riding style.
- 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.
- Supertubes - Hollow carbon cylinders that are inserted directly into the core. They reinforce the camber, reduce weight and greatly increase pop. By varying their location Bataleon can fine-tune the board's performance further.
- Tri-Ax Lamination - Bataleon's three-way fiberglass weave is light, strong and crazy responsive. Bataleon use this to beef up the flex pattern on Bataleon's more aggressive boards.
- Ultra Light Core - A 70/30 Paulownia and poplar blend that offers awesome strength to weight.
- Ultra Glide S - A premium, 7000-grade sintered base reserved for Bataleon's high-end models. Packing more molecules Into the P-tex means it's super tough and hauls ass.
- Flex Walls - Bataleon's 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.
- 28 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.
