Bataleon 2012 Q & A - Page 63 - Snowboarding Forum

Himynameissean · 12-05-2011, 10:41 PM

Just got my 157W Goliath today. Very excited for some snow now. Big thanks to Wiredsport with the sizing assistance. I've got just about a perfect +1cm of foot over hang off each side of the board. It's a lot wider than the board I was using last season, but hopefully it won't be to weird of a transition.

Thanks again,

Sean

So stoked guys! Please post up some pics of you and your new Bataleon sticks either here or on our FB page. Our crew loves to see our decks killing it all over the world!

Thanks

I'll post some better pictures when I get bindings and some snow.

Whats up WiredSports,

I'm looking to get a Bataleon and see what all the hype is about. I am looking for an all mountain that excels in pow.
I'm not really a huge park rider, I would rather just hit a few natural jumps/cliffs on the way down. I also have some other park boards incase I decide to. I am thinking of getting a little longer board to float a bit more on the pow.

180lbs
5'7"
9.5 boot

Let me know what you think, I'm open to all suggestions

Stoked for you! Let me know where (what area of the world) you ride and what your current boards are.

Thanks!

Sorry I forgot to add that.

I ride in northern Japan. My current Boards are a Burton 2008 Custom, and a Burton TWC V-Rocker board.

hi everyone, hi wiredsports,

now that the ET has a sintered base, bataleon finally offer what i've been waiting for four years. at least i hope so, as i didn't have the chance to test this years boards. yet i'm not quite sure about what size i should get. i'm 5'11", about 150 lbs, size 9 boot. while i'd like to have a soft board for buttering/playing around all over the mountain i should still be able to ride medium and large kickers. for more aggressive riding, really huge kickers or pow i'll be using my yes limited edition 156.5. now i'm stuck between the 154 and the 152 evil twin...

what would you suggest?

thanks a lot!
