JP has been shredding on Bataleon Snowboards most of the winter but at Bataleon we really like our team-riders to first take our boards featuring our patented Triple Base Technology, thru a solid test period before we sign the multi-million dollar contracts.

“Hey Guy’s, thanks for hitting me up. Definitely stoked over here as well. The year in the states has been great, many days of landing and turning in the pow. YEAH 4 IT has been in the vocab a lot this year.

I have been riding the Goliath 53 pretty much all year and it has been my favorite Bataleon deck. I’m used to riding a wider deck in the pow and even-though the Goliath has a normal waist width that board has been treating me right. At first I was a little hesitant on the Triple Base but after a couple laps it was super easy to realize that the technology has something going for it and that something for me is better edge response and floatation in the pow. Now I am backing the Triple Base 100%.

This year I have been filming for “Guns Out” Variety Pack Productions. It has been going well with lots of snow and good shreds to ride with, the film it heading in the right direction to be fun and progressive movie. As for now on April 8th it is currently snowing here in Utah so hopefully we can get some more pow kicker sessions in before spring hits us full force. I will keep everyone over there updated as to what is going on.” -JP
