The goal was to ensure that we offered flavors for every snowboarder across the globe - and the result? An all-new experience from your favorite snowboard brand (us, duh!) All of the bells, whistles, and response that an advanced to expert-level snowboarder would expect from the mad scientists in our board lab - just with one fewer dimension. The Placebo is built on a two-dimensional (read: flat) base platform, because not everyone is looking for a 3D snowboard - and that’s okay. So we built a flat board, the Bataleon way.

  • Best for Jibs/Park/Freestyle/Powder
  • Flex 8 (stiffer)
Impact Plates Strategically placed underfoot, these plates distribute pressure from heavy landings and high-impact situations, protecting your board from damage and reinforcing the inserts. Whether you’re hitting big jumps or tackling rough terrain, Impact Plates ensure your snowboard remains responsive and resilient, providing a smoother ride and extending the life of your gear.
HyCap Construction - Full cap construction through the contact zone for energy and precision, with durable polyurethane sidewalls at the tip and tail for added impact resistance.
LightCore 50/50 Paulownia and poplar creates a balanced core that’s lively yet strong.
Ultra Glide S A premium, 7000-grade sintered base reserved for our high-end models. Packing more molecules into the P-tex means it’s super tough and hauls.
Triax Laminate 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.
C.S.T Super Tubes A single Super Tube down the middle of the board enhances pop without stiffening the board torsionally. Great for jibbing.
Carbon Stringers Tried and tested carbon layups. We deploy them in different areas to fine-tune the feel of each model.
