My friend was on batalla and they were made in the epic planks factory. Apparently epic planks was also housing a meth lab. So the batallas took forever to make and epic planks got meth mouth

"we are not part of Epic Planks and we don’t have the same construction, factory, etc. One of our owners is a former member of EP, but our company is not associated with EP.... while there are numerous companies building their own skis in the USA, there are very, very few that are building OEM for other small brands. It is absolutely slim pickings and the product you get is lower quality and higher price than what you can find overseas. This has been the reality that we found." ~NS

I am sure there's a backstory with EP, and I am sure it is financially based ... ie not making money or more money elsewhere....

Epic Planks are from my home town of Grand Rapids, Michigan and noticed yesterday, while at a local brewery their collab ski. Super sick looking ski.

Batalla have just finished building their own factory. Big things to come don't worry. The all mtn twins are some of the sickest skis I've ridden.
