July 7, 2009 (Tacoma, WA)-Bataleon Snowboards is heading back to Camp of Champions. After last season’s inaugural run, the team couldn’t help but want to go back to the summer’s best shred spot and for Session D from July 11-18, they will get to do just that.
After a long season of riding some of the best powder from North America to Europe, the team elected to finish off the year in beautiful Whistler, BC and ride the biggest private park in the world. Making the trip this year is Utah playboy JP Tomich, Tahoe rail slayer Benny Rice, the mad Englishman Tyler Chorlton and Northwest native Tristan Welch, all led by the raging team manager Julien ‘Larrogs’ Haricot himself.
Camp of Champs massive park should supply the team with ample opportunities to show off the benefits of Triple Base Technology. From blasting off of 85 foot kickers to sliding rails and boxes for days, no one run is the same at Camp of Champs, no one team is quite like Bataleon’s and no one board compares to a Bataleon.
