Hello,

Were stoked to announce that we signed with Mark Edlund. Not much introduction needed for Mark  with sick video parts in the finger on the trigger flicks. Marks innovative riding and style fits the snowboards so well that a lot of good things will come from this in the near future!

Heres what Mark had to say after the first few days riding our
Bataleon Triple Base boards.

"The boards are sooo sick! They ride even better than they seem, for real no bullshit. Duude shit feels like it has soo much pop! You can carve up steeper more rough trannies because the contact points dig in all hard, It feels like you can kinda cruise up whatever all buttery. Also its been really icy here (Utah icy that is) because it rained for like 2 seconds and hasn't snowed since, riding icy shit on the boards I feel confident that I can hold my edge, and that I'm not gonna hook an edge at all on a super uneven hard surface, so that part is good, also that makes for some more buttery shuffles!

I like how you don't have to necessarily be on an edge and you kind jus point where ya want it to go. Seems like there you don't have to muscle things as much, at first I was scared to ollie as hard as I could and did know what to expect to happen with that baseshape! ahha. Well as you can see I am more than pleased! YEAH4IT!"
