Key Features

  • 3BT- Lifted points at the widest part of the board provide a smoother, more forgiving ride.- Lifted points at the widest part of the board provide a smoother, more forgiving ride.
  • 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.
  • Supertube 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.
  • Tri-Ax Lamination: Our three-way fiberglass weave is light, strong and crazy responsive. We use this to beef up the flex pattern on our more aggressive boards.
  • Ultra light core a 70/30 Paulownia and poplar blend that offers awesome strength to weight.
  • ❄️ Good powder float
  • 🎿 3BT catch-free profile
  • 🏄 Directional shape

Similar to my Mom, we got her on a men’s board finally and she loves it. Bataleon Cruiser, coming from a Burton Rewind. I was like your little one, her and I started snowboarding together 25 years ago (she switched from skiing) and we still go together almost weekly.

I am not a fan of 3BT. I have a bataleon cruiser that has it, not ideal for when I want to carve harder, supposedly funnels pow better. But the large nose of the cruiser would float fine in pow without 3BT I'm sure. I had a lobster shifter couple seasons back, sold it because soft flex + 3BT really was not my jam at all. Waxing and scraping 3BT is more work too (if you wax by yourself) I personally would pick Jackpot over Evil twin ten times out of ten. Never ridden the Super DOA but coming from a Jackpot, seems like a lateral move? A cambered, mid-flexing true twin...
