Expert reviews 1
A freeride-leaning all-mountain board built on a directional shape and hybrid camber, suited to intermediate and advanced riders. Strong pop, fast edge transitions and excellent grip in icy conditions are its strengths, and it's a flagship bestseller in Capita's line. It's optimised for riding the whole mountain fast and aggressively rather than for the park.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A hybrid camber construction with camber through the middle and rocker blended at the nose and tail tips. It provides centre power, ease of edge-to-edge transitions and floating performance in deep snow all at once.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium-stiff flex. An ultralight reactive core combined with triax glass and carbon amplifiers makes it livelier and springier than typical boards.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Strong pop, high responsiveness and a stiff flex suit intermediate and above riders. Beginners may find it hard to handle.

Not so good
