• Specially treated pure wood veneer topsheet with a unique tactile feel that is 220gm lighter than the standard process.

HOLYSHEET™ TRIAXIAL FIBERGLASS

• HOLYSHEET™ Fiberglass configuration features fiber weaves with a high tensile strength and low modulus of elasticity.
• With a higher roving count in the same weight of glass, you can have a stronger and more responsive board without adding extra weight.

Magic Bean Resin

• This advanced resin system has a bio-content of 60% renewable, agricultural raw material and is produced with no waste or greenhouse emissions.
• In production, it has a low-temperature requirement with a high yield output.
• Poppy, powerful, and extremely durable, MAGIC BEAN™ resin yields much stronger and more rigid qualities allowing a decrease in the wood core thickness.

Additional Features

By the most experienced crafters.

• At The MotherShip™, the renowned tradition of snowboard manufacturing in the Austrian Alps runs deep.
• Capita's craftsmen meticulously press each board with a bespoke, computer-controlled, recipe of ingredients to deliver an optimal ride experience.
• Freshly pressed boards under go hand inspection before moving on to the grinding and finishing stages.

Machine precision meets hand inspection.

Thermal Insert Drilling

• Unlike other snowboard factories that rely on a human hand and a standard drill for tapping board inserts, which can be prone to imprecision and generate excess scrap, The Mothership stands out with its newly developed automated thermal insert drilling technology.
• This advanced system utilizes thermal scanning to identify the precise location of each insert and taps them with robotic precision.
• The result is a precise insert connection that instills confidence in a higher-performing product, guaranteeing a solid binding-to-snowboard connection.

Factory Tuned

• Beyond the production floor, we have taken NFC capabilities to the next level.
• Now, you can connect with your board by simply scanning it with your phone.
• This NFC interface enables you to register your snowboard, streamlining the customer service process and granting exclusive early access to new product information, drops, and CAPiTA team videos exclusively for NFC-registered users
