PTO Review
We know them. Here's how they stack up.
These snowboards span 2 categories (Freeride, Park). Scores reflect each snowboard's intended use — direct comparison across all dimensions may be misleading.
Kazu Kokubo Pro — advanced/expert riders who split time between resort and backcountry/side-country.. Disaster — park rats focused on jibs, rails, boxes, and presses.. Check the radar chart below to see where each one wins.
Each row compares all boards on one dimension. 🏆 marks the highest score.
| Dimension | Kazu Kokubo Pro | Disaster |
|---|---|---|
| Carving | 7🏆 | 3 |
| Park | 4 | 10🏆 |
| Playfulness | 7🏆 | 7🏆 |
| Forgiveness | 4 | 8🏆 |
| Stability | 8🏆 | 3 |
| Powder | 8🏆 | 2 |
Advanced/expert riders who split time between resort and backcountry/side-country. Riders who want a compact, maneuverable directional board for powder, trees, and natural feature freestyle.
Beginners or intermediates. Pure park riders. Riders who want a forgiving/mellow flex. Budget-conscious buyers.
Park rats focused on jibs, rails, boxes, and presses. Riders progressing into park for the first time. Street-style riders. Anyone who wants a dedicated soft-flex park tool.
All-mountain riders who need one board for everything. Speed seekers. Powder riders. Advanced riders who need pop for big kickers — the Disaster is built for small-to-medium features, not boosting 40-footers.
Kazu Kokubo Pro is best for advanced/expert riders who split time between resort and backcountry/side-country. Disaster is best for park rats focused on jibs, rails, boxes, and presses. The right choice depends on your terrain, ability, and riding style.
CAPiTA Kazu Kokubo Pro has the highest Stability score in this comparison at 8/10. That score compares composure; it does not by itself mean the product is the most versatile choice.
CAPiTA Kazu Kokubo Pro leads Carving in this comparison with a PTO score of 7/10.
Bataleon Disaster has the highest Forgiveness score here at 8/10. Forgiveness is one factor in progression, not a claim that every beginner should choose it.
