Bataleon Distortia 2024 Snowboard

A PARK BOARD FOR ALL THE LADIES

The Distortia is exactly the right snowboard for all women who feel most comfortable in the park. Kickers and rails/boxes can be dismantled in the same way. This is ensured by a lot of pop and stability in harmonious interaction with flexibility and manoeuvrability. This year, pro Klaudia Medlova's favourite board comes with a new outline for an even better riding experience. 

Riding style
The Distortia is a snowboard for all park ladies. Soft enough for smooth jibs, but also stable enough for fat jumps.

Shape
There is only one suitable shape in the park and it is called Twin. And of course the Distortia has a Twin 3BT™ with symmetrical tip and tail. This shape offers balance and stability no matter how you jump or land. SideKick™ tips increase edge uplift at the widest points of the nose and tail for even easier turn initiation and less tangling and snagging.

Profile
Twin 3BT™ offers a relatively wide centrebase and only subtle edge uplift. This provides more control during presses or fast approaches. The Medium Camber is perfectly proportioned for flexibility on rails and enough pop for kicker lines.

Flex
The soft-medium flex (4/10) is also optimally designed for park riding. Relaxed jibbing and kicker riding with a relatively soft but stable board.

Construction
The Light Core made of poplar wood and paulownia lies between 2 layers of biaxial fibreglass. This allows for great press and pop characteristics and fast manoeuvrability. The Central Super Tube Woodcore Upgrade has a centrally placed carbon tube on the underside of the core that provides more pop without stiffening the board. Additional carbon stringers give the board even more pop, provide more precise edge control and smooth damping. The sintered Hyper Glide S base is hard and fast and remains so when well maintained.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
