Bataleon Stallion 172W Snowboard

I would ride a horse.. if it was a snowboard

The Bataleon Stallion has already established itself for the big guys. It's extra wide for bigger feet, but thanks to the new SideKick™ Tips it can be ridden aggressively like a narrower board.

Riding Style
The Stallion can ride the whole mountain and towards the sunset. And on its way, it takes on every kicker or powder run with ease.

Shape
A versatile board like the Stallion needs the Freestyle 3BT™. The nose is 1 cm longer than the tail. This results in more float plus more grip. The new SideKick™ Tips increase the edge uplift on the widest points of nose and tail for easier turn initiation, more float and better handling in rough terrain.

Profile
The centre base of the Freestyle 3BT­™ is a bit more narrow than on Twins. The edge uplift is medium. Along with the dynamic camber, this makes the Stallion a versatile and responsive all-mountain freestyle board.

Flex
The hardest flex (8/10) in the whole range is perfect for ultimate aggressiveness no matter what terrain.

Construction
The Super Ultra Light Core is the lightest 80-20 Swiss paulownia and poplar wood blend for the lightest strength to weight ratio. C.S.T, Central Super Tube wood core upgrade has one centrally placed hollow carbon rod milled into the bottom of the core to enhance pop without stiffening the board torsionally. The sintered Ultra Glide S base is hard and fast, but wax it good! The AirRide™ core additive dampens vibrations and makes riding smoother at high speeds. It’s like having a suspension system in your snowboard.

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.
