All about the Bataleon Thunder
All about the Bataleon Thunder
The Thunder is made for high-energy resort rides and turbo-charged powder descents
At the heart of every Bataleon is a combination of 3BT™ and positive camber. It's an innovative solution to the profile puzzle that minimizes the chance of edge grip without sacrificing ollie-power or carve-performance. From this premise, we refine each element based on the board's desired riding style.
The Thunder is a directional board that goes switch smoothly, a true hybrid 3D Freeride board that can still ride freestyle with ease

Camber profiles are defined from low to high. Higher camber makes for more dynamic boards that need to be ridden more aggressively for maximum performance. Boards with lower camber are smoother at lower speeds and in powder. All camber profiles run from nose to tail. Higher is not always better...
A directional shape provides improved performance and stability when riding in one direction, especially when freeriding and on powder.
