Expert reviews 1
A good-value all-mountain freestyle twin focused on forgiveness and fun. Buttering and ollies come easily in soft snow and switch riding feels natural. Ice edge hold and powder capability are weak, so it's fairly condition-dependent.
Base shape (camber)
Hybrid camber
A hybrid construction where mellow camber runs just past the inserts and then transitions into a considerable amount of rocker out to the tip and tail. It creates a stable yet forgiving character.
StiffnessHigher means stiffer
A medium flex at 6 out of 10. An improved core makes it bend readily while snapback stays alive. That said, pop is weaker than on Capita's other models.
Where it shines
Who it suits
Forgiving enough for beginners to approach, and advanced riders can enjoy it for freestyle. A good-value twin covering a broad range of ability.
Good
- ✓Provides a forgiving ride with no edge catch
- ✓Buttering and ollies are very easy
- ✓Good capability on choppy snow
- ✓The true twin makes switch riding fun, and base glide is respectable
Not so good
- —Insufficient edge hold on hardpack and ice
- —It deflects badly in wet, heavy spring snow
- —Weaker pop than other Capita models
- —No setback, making powder hard to handle
