Description The Bataleon Cameleon is the evolution of the legendary Camel Two, the ultimate directional freeride board. Designed to be an incredibly versatile freeride board, the Cameleon effortlessly turns, glides down the mountain, and floats in deep powder like none other. The famous Bataleon 3BT and Sidekick make this directional, all mountain board even better to make your most legendary pow runs even easier than ever, ensuring you have the best day possible, every day. Board Type: Freeride-Powder Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders. Powder snowboards are designed for deep snow. Generally these boards feature a directional shape with a tapered tail for better float and ease of riding. Flex: 5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff) Offering a balanced blend of flexibility and stiffness, mid-flex boards are versatile and suitable for all-mountain riding. They provide enough responsiveness for carving while maintaining some forgiveness for playful or casual riding. Ability Level: Intermediate-Advanced Intermediate snowboards offer more responsiveness and stability at higher speeds, with a slightly stiffer flex for better control on varied terrain and more advanced manoeuvres. Advanced snowboards are stiffer and more responsive, designed for high-speed control, precision riding, and handling challenging terrain or tricks. Shape: Tapered Directional A directional twin snowboard has a symmetrical shape but with a slightly shifted stance, making it ideal for riders who want the versatility of a twin for freestyle, with the added stability of a directional design. It performs well both regular and switch but excels in one direction, offering improved control on varied terrain. Camber Type: Medium Camber with 3BT and SideKick, Medium Nose Sidebase Uplift and Medium Tail Sidebase Uplift Bataleon's camber profiles vary from low to high, each influencing the board’s overall feel and performance. High camber creates a more energetic and responsive ride, demanding an aggressive approach to fully harness its power and excel in precision, pop, and edge hold but require skill to control. Low camber provides a smoother, more forgiving experience, making turns effortless and enhancing float in powder, especially at lower speeds. While Medium camber is the perfect combination of both. No matter the level, all camber profiles extend from nose to tail. However, higher doesn’t always mean better—choosing the right camber depends on your riding style, skill level, and preferred terrain. Every Bataleon snowboard is built on the seamless integration of Triple Base Technology (3BT) and positive camber—an advanced design that significantly reduces the risk of edge-catch while maintaining explosive ollie power and precise carving control. This foundation serves as the starting point, allowing them to adjust each element to perfectly complement the board’s intended riding style, ensuring optimal performance across all terrains and conditions. SideKick takes the Triple Base concept to the next level by amplifying sidebase uplift just beyond the widest points of the nose and tail. This innovative design gives the tips a hull-like shape, dramatically enhancing float in deep snow while effortlessly slicing through rough, uneven terrain. By elevating the edges, it also improves turn initiation, making edge-to-edge transitions smoother, faster, and more controlled for a responsive and confidence-inspiring ride in all conditions. Sidebase uplift in the nose of the snowboard varies from Low, Medium, and High and influences how the board performs edge to edge and how it floats in powder. Sidebase uplift in the tail of the snowboard varies from Low, Medium, and High and influences how the board behaves while riding. It accentuates the 3BT within the board, making them even more versatile. Width: Standard Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes. Inserts: 2x4 Inserts These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk. Board Construction Topsheet: Step Down Rails Top 3D This topsheet 3D effect incorporates a subtle taper along the top of the sidewall, which narrows the top profile. This design not only reduces weight but also enhances the precision of your carves. Laminate: Tri-Ax, Carbon Stringers, D.R.S.T. SuperTubes Bi-Axial fiberglass is lightweight, strong, and playful. This keeps the board responsive while still keeping it torsional stiff. Additional carbon layups are strategically placed to fine-tune the flex, response, and overall feel of each board, ensuring optimal performance tailored to its design. SuperTubes are lightweight, hollow carbon cylinders embedded directly into the core to enhance camber, reduce weight, and dramatically increase pop. Their strategic placement allows for precise tuning of a board’s performance. Dual Radial SuperTubes, D.R.S.T., have six total SuperTubes running along the boards sidecut radius. This is to increase power and response to the edges. Core: Ultra Light Core For excellent strength to weight ratio, this core has a 1:2 blend of Poplar and Paulownia. Sidewall: Flex Walls By using Urethane sidewalls instead of standard ABS, you get a sidewall that bonds the sidewall to the core more effectively creating a more durable and damp construction. Base: Ultra Glide S The Ultra Glide S premium 7000-grade sintered base is engineered for elite performance, exclusively used in high-end model snowboards. Its ultra-dense P-tex construction enhances durability while delivering exceptional speed, ensuring maximum glide and longevity in all conditions. Additional Features: Flex Tail Flex Tail technology features a strip of urethane in the wood core, allowing the tail to flex torsionally. This design mimics a swallow tail, offering better manoeuvrability and control with a freestyle-inspired shape. The Flex Tail provides a playful, surf-like feel for a responsive ride on any terrain.
