CAPiTA Mega Mercury Snowboard | 2024

Behold! The consummate anytime, any-place, all-terrain, snow-slaying device: the 2024 Mega Mercury. 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™ that marries ultralight post-consumer recycled plastics with premium grade wood, the MEGA MERC is further bolstered by a MEGACARBON™ Array and a MEGALITE Skin™ topsheet, yielding an exclusive performance-to-weight ratio for serious descents. The Mega Merc has been further enhanced with a new, high-speed MEGADRIVE™ base 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 Mercury is the utilitarian, shred-anything, ultra-premium snowboard you can trust to handle it all.

Features

• 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.
  
  
• NEW AGE DIRECTIONAL - NEW AGE DIRECTIONAL 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 GRIP™.
  
  
• FSC® CERTIFIED 3D THERMOPOLYMER STARSHIP CORE™ - Utilizing an advanced electronic sorting system allows Capita 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.
  
  
• TRIAX HOLYSHEET™ - The 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. Triaxial fiberglass is placed on both the top and bottom of the core providing maximum strength, durability and performance.
  
  
• MEGADRIVE™ BASE - Striving to kit out the MEGA line-up with the most advanced and premium components, the all-new Megadrive™ base is as fast as science can make it. This is a pure race base composed of HMW polyethylene modified with high carbon content and special fluoro additives for lightspeed gliding in a wide range of conditions.
  
  
• MOONSHOT OMNI-TUNE™ - Aftermarket performance stone grind structure straight from The Mothership, optimized for regular and switch riding.
  
  
• MEGALITE SKIN™ TOPSHEET - Super thin yet durable matte lamina for 60% weight reduction over Capita's regular topsheets.
