PTO Review
We know them. Here's how they stack up.
These snowboards span 2 categories (All-Mountain Freestyle, Park). Scores reflect each snowboard's intended use — direct comparison across all dimensions may be misleading.
Team Pro Marcus Kleveland — the intermediate-to-advanced rider who rides freestyle across the whole mountain - park, groomers, side hits and natural features - and wants a stiffer cambered board that spins and lands switch but still carves and holds speed.. 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 | Team Pro Marcus Kleveland | Disaster |
|---|---|---|
| Carving | 7🏆 | 3 |
| Park | 6 | 10🏆 |
| Playfulness | 8🏆 | 7 |
| Forgiveness | 6 | 8🏆 |
| Stability | 8🏆 | 3 |
| Powder | 4🏆 | 2 |
The intermediate-to-advanced rider who rides freestyle across the whole mountain - park, groomers, side hits and natural features - and wants a stiffer cambered board that spins and lands switch but still carves and holds speed. It is for the rider who wants the board Marcus Kleveland rides under his own name, not the softer plain Team.
First-season and early-intermediate riders: full camber at this flex bites on a sloppy landing, and a softer or hybrid board is the honest start. Dedicated jib riders who want a soft, pressable noodle - this is too stiff for that. Powder hunters: a directional twin on a standard waist does not float deep snow. Riders who will not wax a sintered base.
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.
Team Pro Marcus Kleveland is best for the intermediate-to-advanced rider who rides freestyle across the whole mountain - park, groomers, side hits and natural features - and wants a stiffer cambered board that spins and lands switch but still carves and holds speed. 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 Team Pro Marcus Kleveland 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.
Nitro Team Pro Marcus Kleveland 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.
