PTO Review
We know them. Here's how they stack up.
T1 — intermediate-to-advanced park riders who spend their days jibbing rails and hitting mid-sized jumps, and want a forgiving twin that catches less.. 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 | T1 | Disaster |
|---|---|---|
| Carving | 6🏆 | 3 |
| Park | 9 | 10🏆 |
| Playfulness | 8🏆 | 7 |
| Forgiveness | 7 | 8🏆 |
| Stability | 6🏆 | 3 |
| Powder | 3🏆 | 2 |
Intermediate-to-advanced park riders who spend their days jibbing rails and hitting mid-sized jumps, and want a forgiving twin that catches less. Riders on larger boots who need a mid-wide or wide fit a standard park board can't give them.
Powder chasers and all-mountain chargers — the centered twin and eased camber sink the nose and get loose at speed; take the directional Alternator instead. Beginners still linking their first turns. And riders who only want the softest, cheapest jib noodle — the Cheap Thrills x Love presses easier for less.
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.
T1 is best for intermediate-to-advanced park riders who spend their days jibbing rails and hitting mid-sized jumps, and want a forgiving twin that catches less. Disaster is best for park rats focused on jibs, rails, boxes, and presses. The right choice depends on your terrain, ability, and riding style.
Nitro T1 has the highest Stability score in this comparison at 6/10. That score compares composure; it does not by itself mean the product is the most versatile choice.
Nitro T1 leads Carving in this comparison with a PTO score of 6/10.
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.
