Board Type: Freestyle-All Mountain
Freestyle snowboards are built for park riders and those who love performing tricks on jumps, rails, and side hits.
All Mountain snowboards are versatile boards that excel across various terrains, from groomed runs to off-piste. These boards offer solid edge control and responsiveness, making them a great option for riders who want one board to do just about everything.
Flex: 3/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Snowboards with a soft flex are forgiving, easy to control, and ideal for beginners or freestyle riders. They excel in playful maneuvers, like park tricks and buttering, and provide a smooth ride on groomed trails or in powder.
Ability Level: Beginner
A beginner snowboard is softer, lighter, and more stable, making it easier to control and manoeuvre while learning basic skills like turning and stopping.
Shape: Twin
A twin-shaped snowboard is symmetrical with an identical tip and tail, designed for equal performance riding forward or switch. It’s perfect for freestyle tricks, spins, and jumps, offering balance, stability, and control in both directions.
Camber Type: Park Mini
CAPiTA's Park Mini profile is the perfect catch free riding experience for children to get used to snowboarding. Featuring a reverse camber in the tip and tail and beveled edges for catch free turns.
Sidecut: Radial
CAPiTA's Radial sidecut uses a single-radius design, enabling the board to initiate and complete a turn along the same arc.
Width: Standard
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments.
Board Construction
Topsheet: Digital Print
CAPiTA creates their incredibly detailed and vibrant topsheet designs using a combination of digital and hand screen printing methods. Their PAM16000 Printing technology utilises 16,000 individual inkjet nozzles to produce flawless digital graphics with solventless, water-based UV ink—delivering exceptional accuracy, quality, and speed. Additionally, every CAPiTA topsheet includes a portion that is silkscreened through a hand screen printing process, adding unique texture and depth to the final design.
Laminate: Micro Glass with Magic Bean Resin
This construction incorporates an ideal blend of bi-axial fiberglass above and below the core, measured for optimal performance, and is laminated with structural additives to fine-tune ride characteristics creating an easy to ride board that offers high degrees of forgiveness.
The Magic Bean resin system, developed over three years, is plant-based with high bio-content, zero waste, and no greenhouse emissions. It requires low production temperatures while delivering high yield, strength, and durability. Its enhanced rigidity allows for a thinner wood core, reducing weight while increasing energy return for a lighter, more responsive board.
Core: Select 2.0 Core
CAPiTA's Select 2.0 Core offers uniform flex and consistency thanks to the Poplar wood used in it's construction.
Base: XXX[Truded] - Die-Cut
The XXX[TRUDED] base is built to last. This high-density extruded material is durable, low-maintenance, and strong enough to handle endless laps, park sessions, and mountain adventures with ease.
CAPiTA uses advanced laser-guided die-cutting technology to ensure razor-sharp edges and exceptionally bold, vibrant colors for their bases.
