Expert reviews 1
A steady seller called the benchmark of all-mountain freestyle. Its Resort V1 hybrid camber carries camber's pop alongside rocker's forgiveness, showing high polish on both jumps and groomer carving. It's light and quick to respond, suiting riders who want to sweep the whole mountain fast while mixing in freestyle. Powder float and slashiness are weak, though, and it isn't recommended for beginners.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
Capita's Resort V1 profile — a hybrid construction with positive camber through the insert zone, flat outside the inserts and mild rocker at the tip and tail contact points. It keeps the explosive pop and response that come from camber while the contact-point rocker softens turn initiation.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex (6/10). On snow it's stable but leans toward a locked-in feel. At 17.69g/cm it's light, so handling is agile and pop is easy to draw out on jumps.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Unsuited to beginners, and lower intermediates will struggle too. A board you step up to once fundamentals are in place, and it's unforgiving of mistakes. Optimised for intermediates and above through experts.
Good
- ✓Excellent pop that's easy to get airborne, showing strength on jumps and side hits
- ✓A light 17.69 g/cm makes it nimble to handle
- ✓Good glide and high-speed stability suit riding that charges downhill
- ✓Firm edge hold in carves with stable landings
Not so good
- —The base structure pattern means slashes don't come out well
- —Weak powder performance with insufficient float in deep snow
- —A catchy feel when skidding turns
- —It demands technical polish, so mistakes come with an immediate penalty
