25/26 season review
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.
A closer look
These descriptions and scores are linked to this review. They may differ from manufacturer specifications.
Board profile
The profile describes the curve of the board when viewed from the side.
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.
How stiff is it?Closer to 10 means stiffer. It does not mean better performance.
A medium-stiff flex. An ultralight reactive core combined with triax glass and carbon amplifiers makes it livelier and springier than typical boards.
