Bataleon Goliath+ vs Nidecker Merc

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Bataleon Goliath+ leans more freestyle. They share a directional twin shape — mostly twin with a slight directional bias—versatile for all-mountain and some switch. Both feature hybrid (rocker/camber) profiles — mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile. The Bataleon Goliath+ is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range. The Bataleon Goliath+ targets expert riders while the Nidecker Merc is aimed at intermediate riders.
