If you spend the majority of your winter lapping the park and all your savings on glacier-based summer camps, then the CAPiTA Thunderstick Snowboard is what you need. A soft board designed for park junkies, you will get addicted to the poppy camber that presses and ollies at ease. With a lightweight core made from FSC® Certified wood and the XXX[truded] base this board is durable, light, and powerful. Get the right tool for your game with the CAPiTA Thunderstick Snowboard.

FSC® Certified Dual Core™Poppy lightweight Poplar core combined with Beech for increased power and durability.

Forest Stewardship Council FSC® Certified WoodcoresThese cores come from managed forests that are certified for the protection of biodiversity and wildlife habitat; sustainable harvest levels; protection of water quality; and prompt regeneration.

Topsheet

Multitech™ Level 6 DeepSpace™ SilkscreenStrategically layering ink on multiple levels from the top and the bottom, CAPiTA imbues their graphics with a sense of life through depth.

PLT Topsheet Technology™PLT™ technology is exclusive to CAPiTA MFG and magically bonds the topsheet to an already pressed snowboard. This is magical because the rest of the world mashes their topsheet on with glue, heat and pressure during the pressing stage. Doing so causes the fiberglass structure underneath to show through the topsheet. And because nobody wants to spend their hard earned cash on a bumpy snowboard, many companies slather their tops with a thick, toxic lacquer to smooth things out. Not only is that ish heavy and can potentially develop unsightly hairline cracks, it's also really unhealthy for the working environment. The PLT™ machine produces a featherlight, smooth, high-gloss finish, without all that poisonous deadweight.

Additional Features

Bitter End Deflection Tuning

Made at the Mothership (100% Hydro Powered Facility)The NH3 natural gas heating system has an ODP (Ozone Depletion Potential) and GWP (Global Warming Potential) of 0, with a COP (coefficient of performance) of 5. This means that for every 1 unit of energy consumed by the system, 5 units of energy for heating and cooling is achieved. It's like making the effort to spin a 360, but landing a silky smooth 1800 instead. The Mothership is also designed to maximize the use of natural light during the day by having ample skylights and strategically placed interior cutaways throughout the entire facility -- while energy efficient LED lighting acts as supplementary illumination where necessary.

Union Contact Snowboard Bindings 2018

If you're in the market for a new park binding, follow Scotty Steven's advice and get on the Union Contact Snowboard Bindings. With a soft flex and minimal contact area, this binding allows for freedom to ollie, press, and hit features. Stability comes from the Extruded 3D Aluminum heelcups, allowing for greater response. The Multi-Density Thermoformed EVA Bushings are durable and dampen the binding where it's needed. Take those park laps and kill late night parking lot sessions with the Union Contact Snowboard Bindings.

Product Details

Flex

Highback Stiffness (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)4

Baseplate

Duraflex MD BaseFor more of a surfy feel, the Contact MD Base comes Duraflex injection and is the softest out of the MD Base family. Ideal for lighter riders and/or people looking for that playful 'loose trucks" feeling.

Multi-Density Thermoformed EVA BushingsMulti-Density Thermoformed Bushings sustain their function season after season - unlike competitors who use urethane, rubber or other materials that change color and become brittle over time.

Extruded 3D Aluminum HeelcupsThe rigidity and strength of Extruded Aluminum act like a roll cage on a race car - stiffening the entire chassis. The male/female connection with the base provides a seamless response.

Baseplate Stiffness (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)3

Highback

ASYM S2 HighbacksThe ASYM S2 Highback is perfect for all around freestyle and urban snowboarding. This indestructible design is slightly tweaked towards the outside for seamless boot interface.

Scotty Stevens ProThe Scott Stevens Pro model comes with a 0° forward lean highback

All Other Colorways Have a Traditional Union Forward Lean Adjuster

Straps

3D Symmetric Ankle StrapsPre-curved 3D multi-layer strap core evenly distributes pressure, keeping you locked in and on point.

Ultragrip Toe StrapMulti-positional options and thermoplastic anti-slip material keep you locked in and on point - a simplistic, yet highly durable design.

Buckles

Aluminum RatchetsFast in and fast out - this mechanism combined with Union aluminum is superior to any binding ratchet on the market - with the exception of Union magnesium.
