Capita MEGA MERC Snowboard 2023
Behold the consummate anytime, any-place, all-terrain, snow-slaying device: The Capita MEGA MERC snowboard. Inspired by the on-slope versatility of the Mercury series, the MEGA MERC mimics its proven technical design lines while packing a powerful punch of serious construction upgrades. Featuring an FSC® Certified 3D Thermopolymer Starship Core™ including ultralight post-consumer recycled plastics, the MEGA MERC is bolstered by a MEGACARBON™ Array and a MEGALITE SKIN™ topsheet, yielding an exclusive performance to weight ratio for serious descents. For 2022 The MEGA MERC now comes with a factory-direct Moonshot Omni-Tune™ optimizing high-speed performance while riding both regular and switch. Designed for power when you want it and float when you need it, the MEGA MERC is the utilitarian, shred-anything, ultra-premium snowboard you can trust to handle it all.

Suggested Use
- Performance, All-Mountain, Powder, Park
-
Camber / Rocker Style
- RESORT V2 PROFILE
- This revolutionary all-terrain shape provides the best of both worlds. It has a raised camber platform through the inserts to retain high-speed edge hold through variable terrain, elevated contact points to land and float in powder, and Flat Kick tip and tail arcs for faster, more aggressive transitions.
- RESORT V2 PROFILE
-
Shape
- New Age Progressive Directional
- Capita NEW AGE PROGRESSIVE sidecuts are progressive sidecuts, which also incorporate a reverse sidecut arc in the midsection of the board. Due to a reduced effective edge as a result of hybrid camber shapes, this reverse camber arc provides a point of contact to retain control throughout the turn and is affectionately referred to as DEATH GRIPâ„¢.
- 0.5" Set Back
- New Age Progressive Directional
-
Core Material
- FSC® CERTIFIED 3D THERMOPOLYMER STARSHIP CORE™
- Utilizing an advanced electronic sorting system allows us to select mega-premium, reforestation certified, Poplar graded by weight and grain consistency. Comparable to Paulownia in strength to weight ratio, this core retains the poppiness of Poplar, and then achieves a signature feel by adding bonded post-consumer recycled Thermopolymer channels to form an advanced hybrid core. This mega-premium core will blast you into space and beyond.
- FSC® CERTIFIED 3D THERMOPOLYMER STARSHIP CORE™
-
Construction
- MEGACARBONâ„¢ ARRAY
- Mega-wide carbon tape on both top and bottom of the woodcore = four times the power and response of previous carbon additives.
