Bataleon Goliath Snowboard

Versatility for Any Conditions

The Bataleon Goliath snowboard is the board that started the 3D revolution. Its versatility is evident in all conditions—from freestyle to advanced freeride. Perfect for experienced snowboarders looking for a universal solution. The Goliath offers exceptional edge performance, making it the best choice for those who desire versatility and precision on the slopes.

Characteristics

What distinguishes Bataleon boards is the unique shape of the base known as Triple Base Technology, or 3BT for short. This technology combines the responsiveness of a traditional camber with the dynamic properties of Triple Base and Sidekick. Sidekick enhances the Triple Base concept by increasing the rise of the edges and base just beyond the widest points of the nose and tail. The tips of the board become more like a boat hull. Riding a board with this type of base creates a 3D riding experience. In the Goliath model, the rise of the side edges and base at the front and back of the board is minimal.

The gradual rise of the board's nose affects its behavior on snow, making edge-to-edge transitions easier, reducing the risk of catching an edge, and improving riding comfort in powder.	uuu	The gradual rise in the tail determines how the board behaves on snow. This rise makes the boards more versatile than others, making it harder to catch an edge.

Advanced Technologies

• Tri-Ax Triple Laminate: The tri-directional fiberglass construction is lightweight, strong, and incredibly responsive. It enhances flexibility in more aggressive boards.
• Ultra Light Core: A wood core made of 70% paulownia and 30% poplar provides excellent durability while reducing the board's weight.
• Ultra Glide S Sintered Base: A high-quality sintered base class 7000, reserved for top-tier Bataleon models. A higher particle count in P-tex (the type of polyethylene used for making bases) makes the base exceptionally durable, absorbs wax well, and is incredibly fast. However, it requires more frequent waxing to maintain its properties.
• 28 Inserts: High-quality German stainless steel A-class inserts ensure a secure connection between the bindings and the board. They can withstand many years of changing binding positions on the board.
• Carbon Stringers: Carbon fiber inserts that are stiff, dampen vibrations, are resistant to overload, and maintain their properties even after prolonged use.
• Additional 2 Rear Inserts: One pair of additional inserts has been placed on each side, allowing you to position the bindings further back on the board when riding in deep powder. Shifting your weight more towards the back of the board helps lift the nose above the snow surface.
• D.R.S.T SuperTubes: Super Tubes, or hollow carbon cylinders, are integrated directly into the core. Double Super Tubes, similar to D.S.T., but with 4 additional Super Tubes (a total of 6) positioned on both sides of the board, parallel to the edge radius, enhance pop dynamics and give more spring to the camber.
• Medium Camber Profile: In Bataleon, camber profiles are defined on a 3-point scale from low to high. A higher camber makes the boards more dynamic and requires more aggressive riding to achieve maximum board performance. Boards with lower camber are better at lower speeds and while riding in powder. All camber profiles in Bataleon run from the nose to the tail of the board. Higher does not always mean better...

Camber - characterized by an upward bend in the center, providing excellent edge grip and dynamic pop.	Directional twin - resembles a traditional twin, as the turn radius is the same when riding both directions, but the board's nose is slightly longer than the tail.
