Flex
Flex Rating: (1stiff – 10 soft) 7 moderately soft (Note: Bataleon operates of a flex rating, not measured by stiffness. A more flexible board will have a higher number rating associated with it.)
The Bataleon Violenza Snowboard 2012 features Bataleon's Allmountain TBT™, which is optimized for a more directional ride with a slightly narrowed center base for fast edge to edge transitions. An extended center flat space makes for high speed stability, and all this together makes for - you guessed it - an awesome board for someone looking to explore the whole mountain.
