Bataleon Fun.Kink Snowboard 2024

The Fun.Kink is the epitome of a modern go-anywhere shape. It has a mellow flex and relaxed camber that encourages riders of every level to try new things and progress with confidence. It’s the perfect blend of technology and fun that represents everything we stand for.

Technology

• Flex (1-Soft, 10-Stiff): 4. 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 (10-Min. Float, 100-Max Float): 57. 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.
• Directional Twin: Boards that need to excel both on the slopes and out of bounds are shaped with evenly proportioned center and side bases and a medium uplift striking the optimal balance for freestyle and freeriding.
• Medium 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.
• 3BT (Triple Base Technology): 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™: 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.
• 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.
• Medium Nose Sidebase Uplift: 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.
• Medium Tail Sidebase Uplift: 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 opur boards more versatile then others.
• Shock Walls Sidewalls: This is Bataleon's Urethane infused sidewall technology. ShockWalls smooth out your ride and are more resistant to impact.
• Bi-Ax Lamination Glassing: A traditional two-way weave that is light, strong and playful; it keeps the board snappy without adding torsional stiffness, which is great for getting creative.
• Core Core Woodcore: Full poplar with hardwood beech stringers to strengthen the boards backbone, reinforce the inserts and increase pop.
• Hyper Glide S Base: Bataleon's standard sintered base that’s durable and fast – and even faster when you keep it waxed.
• Supertubes: 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.
• D.S.T. SuperTubes: Dual Super Tubes, a Super Tube on either side of the board enhances pop and gives the camber more snap.
