Party Wave +
Directional Freeride Snowboard
We took the fun filled Party Wave and supercharged it. This is a short and wide high tech beast that can handle whatever you throw at it. A lighter wood core, upgraded glass and a lighting fast sintered base mean you expect an even livelier performance from this game changing shape.

Terrain
Park
Resort
Pow
What’s this board’s natural home? Full send in the park? Elbows down on the trails? Or chucking roosters somewhere off grid?
Flex
6.0
Softer snowboards are easier to press and won’t kick your ass if you make a mistake. Stiffer decks are more stable at speed and super responsive edge-to-edge. Choose your poison.
Float Ratio
87
Maximum volume for surfy vibes in the pow, or a smaller surface area for nimble freestyle performance. This number is calculated with length, width, 3D shape and surface distribution.
Outline Shape
Directional
On our more freeride orientated boards the center base is at its most narrow and the uplift is at its highest this creates unparalleled float in pow super fast edge-to-edge transitioning.
Nose Sidebase Uplift
High
The gradual side base uplift in the nose determines how the board will behave on snow. most effected are the edge to edge performance and the uplift generated when riding powder.
Tail Sidebase Uplift
Low
The gradual side base uplift in the tail determines how the board will behave on snow. Any amount of uplift brings all the benefits of Triple Base Technology making our boards more versatile then others.
Camber Profile
Low Camber
Camber profiles are defined from low to high. Higher camber make for more dynamic boards that need to be ridden more aggressively to get maximum performance. Lower camber boards are smoother on lower speeds and in powder. All camber profiles run from nose to tail. higher is not always better...
3D Shape
3BT™ + Sidekick™
Combining the responsiveness of traditional tip-to-tail camber with the dynamic shaping properties of Triple Base Technology and the performance boosting Sidekick feature makes for a 3D snowboarding experience like no other.
Layup & Laminate
Tri-Ax
Lamination
Our three-way fiberglass weave is light, strong and crazy responsive. We use this to beef up the flex pattern on our more aggressive boards.
Woodcore
Ultra
Light Core
A 70/30 Paulownia and poplar blend that offers awesome strength to weight.
Special Sauce
D.S.T.
Super Tubes
Dual Super Tubes, a Super Tube on either side of the board enhances pop and gives the camber more snap.
Base
Ultra
Glide S
A premium, 7000-grade sintered base reserved for our high-end models. Packing more molecules into the P-tex means it’s super tough and hauls ass.
Layup & Laminate
Carbon
Stringers
Our tried and tested carbon layups. We deploy them in different areas to fine-tune the feel of each model.
Sidewalls
Solid Walls
Sidewall
We use tried and trusted ABS sidewalls for most of the collection. For the best flex to strength ratio.
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 potential for edge-catch without sacrificing ollie power or carving performance. From this starting point, we fine-tune each element according to the boards desired riding style.
SideKick™ builds on the concept of Triple Base by increasing the sidebase uplift just outside the widest points of the nose and tail. The tips become more like a hull, boosting float in deep snow and slicing through crud. It also helps the board to roll quickly and evenly from edge to edge.
Supertubes™ are hollow carbon cylinders that are inserted directly into the core. They reinforce the camber, reduce weight and greatly increase pop. By varying their location we can fine-tune the board’s performance further.

Customer Reviews
Nunca antes habia tenido una tabla Bataleon, y me daba algo de miedo comprar una sin probarla antes por los comentarios que habia leido por internet, pero sin duda es la mejor tabla que he tenido nunca. Estoy encantado con ella, muy manejable, juguetona y con un diseño increíble.
This is arguably my new fav board. For how wide it is, it really doesn't have any drawbacks. I'm 6ft, 225lbs and even on the 157cm - it's still very versatile, despite being such a wide board. It did take a couple days to get used to but regardless, it's so good at everything. Deep pow is a dream and I still confidently take it into the park and hit jumps with it. Don't let the shape fool you either, it rides switch perfectly. I can do switch 1s and 3s on it.
I suggest it 100% if you're thinking about it. Now I'm thinking about the whatever for next season 🔥
Decent rider here with experience on numerous boards. This is the only Bataleon I have ridden, but I am hooked on the 3D base shaping . I am 5'10, 200 lbs and went with the 153 cm. I really don't think I am missing the extra length I am used to. I have ridden on firm packed to boot deep pow days here in VT and I am very impressed with its versatility. I have been riding it more directional and stance one back from recommended. It is crazy how you cannot catch an edge.
Honestly, that is the thing that takes some time getting used to. Just send it and have fun! Awesome, fun, all around board. I may be trying to sell some boards!
I love the party wave for riding on my own, and it’s great for teaching snowboarding too. It is a directional board but riding switch feels the almost the exact same as riding regular. Very nice taper on it and great side cuts for those chest to the snow carves. Over all, it’s a wicked snowboard!!
Rides smooth in deep pow and has the feel of surfing waves, makes hitting side walls and wind drifts epic
