A terrific board, I took it on a trip to Andorra and got a lucky powder day. Board went really well in powder and felt nice and floaty. It also excelled in normal resort conditions and carved on groomers and slush alike. A great one quiver board with a surfy feel in powder. As the names suggests, it will work in Whatever the conditions.

Honestly one of the most fun playful boards I’ve ridden.

I’m an advanced rider. The 23 whatever looks amazing in person and the quality of the top sheet seems improved from some older bataleon / lobster decks.

I have about 15 days on it this season. My first 3 days ridding it at big white in BC, we got 18 inches of pow. I pushed this thing hard in out of bounds powder bowls, steep tight trees with knee deep pow and it really surprised me… the shape and 3BT really compensate for it being a true twin camber(the shape is directional but it rides like a twin) in powder. I put a half inch set back and had some very minor back leg fatigue after 5 hours of slashing and charging deeps. Impressive considering this is where this board would struggle in my mind.

Went out a couple more times on groomers with the wife. It’s a fun carver, but does get a bit of chatter at really high speeds (soft flex) but never where I felt out of control.. just feels lively under foot.

It did take me a couple attempts to get the hang of carving with 3BT .. that said, if you know how to carve and get the board on its side, it snaps edge to edge really nice and quick. It accelerates out of a carve pretty good… but 3BT is a bit weird at first and I washed out the first couple deep heel side carves I tried to push through my back foot out of the bottom of the carve. That said, it has a sweet spot that once your find it, it will spring you out of the carve with more speed. I wouldn’t suggest learning to carve on this board.. pretty easy to skid turns and it doesn’t lock a carve early (kinda floats into the edge if that makes sense) .

It has a shorter turn radius so I found it excelled in tight quick carves.., but you can definitely lay a trench if the conditions are right. The soft flex and lively camber make it really fun for moguls and trees.

Now the fun part. Freestyle: this board has a ver very easy to access pop. It wants to jump and ollie. I found it pretty stable for landings as well on medium to large jumps (biggest jumps I’m comfortable with are around 15-20). I’m not a BIG jumps kind of rider so if that’s what your looking for .. I’d suggest something a bit stiffer. It absolutely loves side hits and sketchy transitions (3BT lets you not be perfect on landings).

The flex and 3BT make this board so fun to press and butter. I was able to 360 nose roll really easy on first attempt and by the end of the day, felt comfortable buttering over rollers into 180s and Cabaleros. It’s very forgiving, so for me, it gives me confidence to play and try new tricks. It also board slides really well, hugging the feature nice without clapping. The nose press on bataleon boards is something everyone should feel.

Lastly, switch. It rides like a true twin honestly. I couldn’t tell any difference with the carve in either direction. Switch landings felt really good.

I would say it can be a quiver killer if you’re a resort rider that leans more to freestyle. It’s my daily driver, but I like a soft flex and don’t really dig charging down cliffs haha.

Great do everything board, love it!

It so nice for pow ressort and Park. Ilove it

Beautifully built and a joy to ride
