Description
The 2025 CAPiTA Mercury is back and ready to be your daily driver to all things snowboarding. Known for its all mountain versatility and incredible power underfoot, it is no wonder why CAPiTA team rider and style master Kevin Backstrom makes it his board of choice every year. You can be sure to have complete control over your snowboard in any condition, whether it's hitting natural kickers on resort to floating effortlessly in powder.
Taking a revolutionary freeride camber profile and applying it to a super lightweight and high performance core, along with engineered carbon and environmentally responsible construction, CAPiTA have created a snowboard that will take you to new planets while still looking after ours. The snowboarding universe is ever-changing and the limits are always being pushed, so CAPiTA have developed a board that will break the surly bonds of gravity, destroy your ideas about what a snowboard is capable of, and take you to the final frontier.
-CAPiTA likes to keep it fresh. The colours/graphics on the base are THEREFORE RANDOM -
- Rider Type: Resort
- Camber Type: Resort V2 Directional 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.
- Sidecut: New Age Progressive - 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: Hover Core - The Hover Core is so light it essentially floats across the snow. Thin cut, low-density, Paulownia strips are combined with 7mm Poplar beams to create an ultralight and intensive response in the board.
- 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 25mm 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.
