Bataleon Goliath Snowboard Review

Join me for another tech talk night, here at Comor Sports Whistler. 3D snowboard profiles are all the rave right now! I recently grabbed the Bataleon Goliath, to see how it's Triple Base technology works in the conditions I like to ride. Since Bataleon was one of the first brands in the modern era of snowboarding to really establish working 3D contours, I figured it would be cool to grab their daily driver, and give it the Andreas Schubert test. This board is a classic in the Bataleon line up, and is the perfect all rounder for the person who wants versatility. Its a directional twin, with a medium flex, and a responsive 8 meter turning radius. I was flabbergasted at how well this board floated and steered in the powder. I really had very little expectations of it in the trees (due to its twin shape). But once I got it into my personal powder stash- the Andreas Woods, it became apparent just how well it handled. The more I rode it, the more impressed I became. The dominant camber profile gave it a tonne of snappyness when going over rolling terrain. The Triple Base Tech in the nose and tail made it super fun to steer in the pow, and it initiated turns very fluidly. Despite its twin shape, it floated very nicely. The board feels super light, due to its "dual radial super tubes". These hallowed out carbon tubes, are milled into the core, removing weight and intensifying pop. In addition to this, the wood core uses a blend of 70/30 Swiss paulownia and poplar wood for unparalleled strength to weight ratio. This board is a great all mountain option, that handles everything from park to tree lines. Being a directional twin, it rides switch perfectly, and lands jumps nice and straight, with lots of stability. I rode this board with my Now Select Pro bindings. They were that perfect mid range flex, that matched this board really nicely. The Skate tech in the binding, plus the Triple Base tech in the board, made for a super responsive, and pivotable feel. All in all, this board gets my stamp of approval, and makes for an excellent choice if you're coming to Whistler. Thanks for watching, don't forget to like and subscribe!
