Het Capita Mercury Snowboard uit 2021 levert futuristische prestaties in de moderne tijd en is het favoriete board van freeride / freestyle stijlmeesters Kevin Backstrom en "Rocket Man" Arthur Longo. Een samensmelting van ruimtetechnologie en op avontuur geteste prestaties hebben geresulteerd in de Mercury, een ongelooflijk veelzijdig board voor elk terrein dat ongelooflijke kracht en controle biedt wanneer je het wilt en zweeft wanneer je het nodig hebt. Met een revolutionair freeride camberprofiel en het toepassen op een superlichte en hoogwaardige kern, samen met ontworpen koolstof en een milieuvriendelijke constructie, heeft Capita een snowboard gemaakt dat je naar nieuwe planeten brengt terwijl je nog steeds voor ons zorgt. Het snowboarduniversum verandert voortdurend en de grenzen worden altijd verlegd, dus heeft Capita een board ontwikkeld dat de norse zwaartekrachtsverbanden zal verbreken, je ideeën over wat een snowboard kan, vernietigen en je naar de "final frontier" brengen.
Rider Type: Resort
Camber Type: Resort V2 Profile
The Resort V2 Profile gives you the best of both worlds. Raised camber through the inserts to retain high speed edge hold, rocker at the contact points to reduce catch and enhance float in powder, and flat kick tip and tail for faster, more aggressive transitions.
Flex: 6.5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Stiff enough to plow through the powder and hold a strong edge, but soft enough to be forgiving when you need it.
Shape: Directional
This board has a setback stance and slightly directional shape, giving you better control going forwards but still allowing you to ride switch with ease.
New Age Directional
This board features a progressive sidecut which incorporates a reverse sidecut arc in the middle of the board. Due to a reduced effective edge as a result of hybrid camber shapes, this reverse camber arc adds an additional point of contact in the centre of the board (aka Death Grip), allowing you to retain better control through turns.
Core: FSC Certified Panda Core
The Panda Core was engineered with a focus on all-terrain technical freestyle riding. Featuring the same lightweight, poppy, smooth Poplar and Paulowia wood as Capitas Superlight P2 Core enhanced with inlaid bamboo power rods, this high-density core is strong enough to handle any kind of terrain while staying super light.
Amplitex V-Tech Amplifier - Amplitex is a natural Flax fibre woven with carbon strands, giving you the reactive energy of carbon with the lightweight dampening properties of Flax. These two fibres are placed in 4 x 30mm strips, working in unison to reinforce the board while flexing uniformly and remaining light, durable, and extra snappy.
HolySheet Fibreglass + Magic Bean Resin - HolySheet glass has a higher glass to weight ratio than normal fibreglass, giving you more stiffness with lower weight than a traditional layup. This is impregnated with a high performance, environmentally responsible, plant based resin that provides a powerful and dynamic ride that's better for the planet.
Base: Hyperdrive Base
This exclusively formulated sintered base is designed for the most depraved speed junkies, bar none. Ultra high molecular weight, ultra high density polyethylene, custom engineered with super secret special additives. That's a one way ticket to a face meltingly fast ride.
