Dynamic Camber

Freeride 3BT™ with SideKick™ – 3rd generation Freeride 3BT™ has the added benefit of SideKick. The directional shape has a narrow centerbase with more sidebase uplift area and angle in the nose than in the tail. The tapered shape, sidecut and setback stance are optimized for backseat steering, high-speed traction, and maximum powder float, and the narrow centerbase generates swift edge-to-edge transfer and quick powerful carves.

Flex Rating – 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Directional Tapered Outline

SideKick™ – SideKick™ dramatically increases the sidebase uplift just outside the widest points of the nose and tail. This makes turn initiation smoother, increases float in powder and improves handling of the board in rough terrain.

Sidebase Uplift – High Tip Uplift / Medium Tail Uplift

Light Core – Bataleon's 50-50 Swiss paulownia and poplar woods blend for optimal strength to weight properties.

Triax Laminate – Three-way weave of fiberglass is light, strong, and responsive. Bataleon uses this to beef up the flex pattern.

Carbon Stringers – Carbon is feather light and adds explosive pop, precise edge control, reactive response, and smooth dampening to a board. It is used in different ways to fine-tune a boards ride characteristics.

Dual Super Tubes – Two hollow carbon rods milled into the bottom of the core to enhance pop and give the camber more snap.

ABS Solid Walls – Tried and trusted ABS sidewalls for the best flex to strength ratio.

Hyper Glide S – Bataleon's standard sintered base that's tough and fast -- and even faster when waxed.

Flip Flop Base – Boards with Flip Flop bases have two or more base color variations. Bataleon uses this process to reduce waste.

Backseat Inserts – For the deepest pow days, slam your stance rearward for maximum flotation.
