Product Info

Add in the FSC® Certified Hover Core™ that is light yet strong and boasts incredible dampening properties, and you have an industry defining board. This board is for those who already slay and are dedicated to continually advancing their riding.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Mountain ProfileThe original Mountain Profile design features mid-body camber with a flat tail and a reverse cambered nose. This allows for tons of pop and stability on hard pack while increasing float and landing power, improving the rider's performance in deep snow.

Flex

Flex Rating7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Shape

Progressive SidecutA progressive sidecut consists of two or more radii blended together to accommodate the three stages of a turn. They provide easy turn initiation while offering greater control throughout the turn and maximum power when exiting.

Core

FSC® Certified Hover Core™An energetic core that is extremely light and strong with excellent dampening properties.

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.

Laminates

X-Arcs™ Engineered CarbonComputer engineered pre-shaped, pre-laminated carbon for precisely tuned performance.

Holysheet™ Fiberglass with Magic Bean ResinTriax/ Biax Holysheet™ has higher glass to weight ratio than normal fiberglass for a more powerful and dynamic ride when impregnated with the new high performance plant based Magic Bean™ Resin.

Sidewalls

Full ABS1000 Sidewalls

Base

HyperDrive™ NC12 BaseExclusively formulated, sintered, ultra-high molecular weight, ultra-high density polyethylene, custom engineered with special additives. Rated for the most depraved speed junkies only.

Multitech™ Sublimation + Die-Cut BaseSublimation is an exact science for an inexact process. In sublimation, ink is pushed through a substrate into base material using pressure and heat.

Titanal Base InlayTitanal is a high strength hardened aluminum wrought alloy with excellent compression strength to weight ratios. A perfect top core structural reinforcement, these 20mm Titanal struts resist longitudinal compression.

Edges

360˚ HRC48 Steel Edges

Topsheet

Urethane Topsheet AnchorAdvanced shearing layer for shock absorption.

Multitech™ Level 5 DeepSpace™ Metallic Silkscreen + PAM16000™ Topsheet with Metallic UnderlayStrategically layering ink on multiple levels from the top and the bottom, CAPiTA imbues their graphics with a sense of life through depth.

PAM16000™ TopsheetSpec'd out to the tits with a mind-boggling sixteen thousand ink jet nozzles, PAM16000™ makes our knees weak and our hearts palpitate. She can now spit out solventless, water-based UV inks at twice the speed with the same deadly accuracy and quality.

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

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.
