The Capita The Black Snowboard Of Death 2027 is a premium all-mountain / freeride snowboard built for riders who want a precise, supportive platform across fast resort terrain, technical descents, and off-piste lines. Its long established position in the Capita range is clear here, this is a directional board designed around control, speed, and confident response rather than a loose or forgiving ride.
The shape is directional with a 0.8” setback, giving the board a naturally composed feel when riding steeper pistes, mixed snow, and freeride terrain. Combined with a Directional 6.5 flex, the overall setup points to solid edge engagement and the kind of stability that suits experienced riders pushing harder through changing conditions.
Capita pairs this layout with its Alpine V1 Directional + Flat Kick Tech profile. This design uses mid-body camber with a flat tail and reverse cambered nose, balancing pop and hardpack stability with added float and landing support in deeper snow. Capita also notes that the camber runs longer through the tail, adding extra power and support, particularly useful for stronger riders and more committed riding styles.
On snow, the Black Snowboard Of Death 2027 is positioned for riders splitting their time between groomers and freeride terrain, but who still want one board that can manage full resort days without compromise. The updated technical package supports that use. A Thermopolymer Hover Core is combined with Holysheet Tri/Tri fiberglass, Magic Bean resin, Fairmat Carbon Amplifiers, and Carbonflax Amplifiers, all working toward a lighter, more reactive construction with added strength and dampening.
Underfoot, the board uses Capita’s New Age Progressive Death Grip sidecut for control and edge precision, while the Hyperdrive Adv XT Base is built for speed and durability. Capita finishes it with Moonshot Omni-Tune base structure and inlaid alloy skid plates at the tail for added durability, impact protection, and stability.
For riders looking at the sharper end of the all-mountain category, the Black Snowboard Of Death 2027 stands out as a serious directional snowboard with the range to handle fast groomer laps, demanding freeride lines, and varied snow conditions in one refined package.

Yes, it is ideal for natural jumps on the slopes and in the backcountry and occasionally in the fun park.
You should wax your snowboard when the base looks dry or white, or after every 3–5 days on the snow for the best performance. Fresh wax keeps your board fast and protects it from damage.
The right size depends on your weight, boot size, and riding style. Check the size chart and product details for guidance, or contact us for personal advice.
