Bataleon 2014 Snowboards - New Boss Model, etc - Snowboarding Forum

Wiredsport · 02-06-2013, 10:10 AM

The BOSS is to the EVIL TWIN what the GLOBAL WARMER was to
the AIROBIC: A GTI version featuring turbo ingredients! With a CORE
CORE for responsive carving and loaded pop the BOSS also features a
true twin shape with TWIN TBT and a soft-mid flex for fun and forgiving
freestyle riding. We also added carbon reinforcement to the binding
areas for extra torsional stability and turbo pop! The BOSS carves
brilliantly, will let you press like a street slayer, but can also stick a Mach
speed landing. This board will make you a boss: Everywhere and on
everything!

Left to Right:

Disaster, Disater Gulli Edition, Airobic, Global Warmer, Distortia

Distortia, Boss, Evil Twin, Riot

Omni, Welcome to Springfield

Whatever (5), Goliath

Goliath, Jam, Omni, Camel Toe (this is the 153 - the 158 and 162 are black an red respectively and look mean).

Diggin' it, Bataleon looks sick as always.

this is definitely a big upgrade on all their graphics...except for the gulli, which I think is 70s hideous.

The mirrored bird faces on the distortia is outstanding - wish they put that on a mens board. I never really liked white boards or skulls, but the airobic looks great, too. Boss is kinda rad.

nice. loving my whatever this season

This is definitely the best year yet for Bataleon graphics. More art than graphic...looks like they're taking the Lib/Gnu/Capita route

firlefranz · 02-09-2013, 09:30 PM

Hehe, I hate Lib's and especially Gnu's 'designs'. It's the first year I'm not as stoked of bataleons graphics.

Edit: Distortia looks sick!

Anyone know what the extra set of holes are for on the omni? I'm guessing extra setback for powder.

Triple8Sol · 02-09-2013, 11:27 PM

Well if you look at it, they went a little more wild with the park/freestyle boards, and more clean/simple with the more freestyle/all-mountain/pow boards. Pretty good idea imo.

Yes. The extra backseat inserts are all about pow day setback.
