The CAPiTA Mercury is a true all-mountain powerhouse, designed to be your daily driver for every style of snowboarding. Renowned for its versatility and strength underfoot, it’s a trusted choice of CAPiTA team rider Kevin Backstrom for its ability to perform in any condition.
From natural side hits and resort laps to deep powder lines, the Mercury delivers consistent control, float, and responsiveness. Its freeride-focused camber profile is paired with a lightweight, high-performance core and engineered carbon reinforcements for added pop, stability, and precision.
Built with environmentally responsible materials and construction methods, the Mercury combines advanced technology with a refined ride feel—pushing performance forward while respecting the mountain. It’s designed to inspire confidence across all terrain, redefining what an all-mountain snowboard can do.
Board Type: All Mountain-Freeride
Flex: 6.5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Mid-flex snowboards offer the ideal balance between playfulness and performance, making them a versatile choice for all-mountain riders. Responsive enough for confident carving and stability at speed, they also provide the forgiveness needed for presses, butters, and more relaxed riding. Whether you're exploring the entire mountain or progressing your skills across varied terrain, a mid-flex board delivers dependable versatility in all conditions.
Shape: Directional
A directional snowboard is designed to perform best when ridden in one primary direction. It typically features a longer nose and a shorter, more compact tail, improving stability, control, and float in varied conditions, especially powder.
This shape is ideal for freeride and all-mountain riding, offering strong performance at speed, smooth carving, and confident downhill control.
Resort V2 Directional + Flat Kick Tech is an all-terrain shape designed to balance performance and versatility across changing conditions. A raised camber platform through the inserts delivers dependable edge hold and stability at speed, while elevated contact points improve float and control in powder.
Flat Kick tip and tail arcs allow for quicker, more responsive turn initiation, creating a smooth yet energetic ride that performs confidently from groomers to deeper snow.
New Age Progressive + Death Grip sidecut is designed for precise control and versatile performance. The Progressive sidecut blends multiple radii to support each phase of the turn, delivering smooth initiation, confident edge control, and strong drive through the exit.
Integrated Death Grip technology adds a reverse sidecut arc in the board’s midsection, creating an additional pressure point for enhanced grip and stability throughout the turn. The result is a balanced, responsive ride suited to both freestyle creativity and freeride performance.
Laminate: Holysheet Tri/Bi and Magic Bean Resin with 4x25mm Caronflax Amplifier
HolySheet fiberglass construction uses engineered weaves designed for high tensile strength and low elasticity. By increasing the roving count without adding weight, it improves overall strength, responsiveness, and durability.
For peak performance, tri-axial fiberglass is layered above and below the core, with carbon additives interwoven into the laminate. This advanced construction enhances stability, ride quality, and durability while significantly reducing overall weight.
The Magic Bean resin system is a plant-based formulation with high bio-content, designed for low-impact production with no waste or greenhouse emissions. It cures at lower temperatures while delivering excellent strength and durability, allowing for a thinner, lighter wood core that increases energy return and overall responsiveness.
Carbonflax is an advanced composite that combines natural flax fibers with carbon strands for enhanced snowboard performance. It blends carbon’s responsive energy return with flax’s lightweight feel and natural vibration damping.
Together, these materials create a durable, balanced reinforcement that improves stability, smooths out chatter, and boosts energy transfer across varied terrain.
Topsheet: PLT Technology - Digital, Screen, and Gloss/Matte Print with Pearlescent Underlay
PLT Technology™ bonds the topsheet directly into the pressed snowboard, eliminating visible fiberglass texture on the surface. This creates a smooth, seamless finish without the need for an additional lacquer layer.
By reducing extra materials and weight, PLT Technology™ also supports a more efficient, environmentally conscious construction while maintaining durability and performance.
CAPiTA combines advanced digital printing with hand screen printing to create vibrant, high-detail graphics. Using 16,000 inkjet nozzles and water-based UV inks, PAM16000 technology delivers exceptional print quality, while hand-screened elements add unique texture and depth to every topsheet.
Core: Hover Core
Hover Core is a high-performance premium core, made of alternating Paulownia and Poplar, that is ultra-light, strong, and offers exceptional dampening properties.
Hyperdrive™ base is constructed from premium sintered polyethylene, engineered for exceptional speed and low friction thanks to its high molecular mass. This results in a fast, durable base designed for high-performance riding in all conditions.
CAPiTA uses advanced laser-guided die-cutting technology to achieve precise base shapes and sharp detailing, resulting in bold, vibrant graphics with exceptional clarity.
Sublimation is a refined printing process that uses heat and pressure to embed ink directly into the base material. This enhances color depth, vibrancy, and durability, producing graphics that remain rich and dynamic over time.
