FranceSlayer of mountains
After an initial adjustment period of getting used it, I can say hands down that this board is the best I’ve ever ridden. Locks in the carves all day, eats up uneven terrain, very stable under foot and ultra fast - I swear this thing could ride up hill! No more getting stuck on flat sections, no more being left behind by skiers, and no more washing out on bumps, this thing flies. I would say this board this not suitable for a beginner, or even an intermediate. It’s defiantly geared up for the more experienced rider. The stiffer flex and super quick base doesn’t forgive many mistakes. I would also recommend pairing this up with some stiff bindings. I rode it with some softer bindings at first and it didn’t work, and felt twitchy. But when I put a pair of Burton cartel X on it, it all made sense and was very responsive. Thank you Capita, I never need to buy another board again
United StatesGreat board
An incredible board. It’s my first time snowboarding I used the rentals for about 4 sessions and needed my own, so I bought this one Initially for flat ground tricks but because it’s not a super flexy board (I’m not complaining) I’ve been hitting jumps, bombing hills, I mean going FAST this board holds up great
United StatesAMAZING - I'm a second year rider
My first year which was last year I rode a 2021 Lib Tech Skate Banana which is a rocker dominant board. I felt like it was pretty playful at slower speeds and very maneuverable but man was it to shakey and unstable at high speeds I feel like I could eat it at any moment if I was trying to bomb. I went with the 2021 Capita mercury and just took it out for the first time. There was some Ice but it was snowing a bunch to cover it up. Immediately I noticed how much more stable this was and don't let them say that this board is not as playful at slow speeds because it definitely is. Snappy, poppy and a blast turning edge to edge. So I grew up skating and surfing so my style is definitely more about using the mountain like a skatepark and using anything like a wave and hitting big carves any time I can to get that surf feeling. This board is giving me everything I need and more including that stability I was looking for. I read some reviews about it being "catchy" sometimes and I didn't notice that at all. Im so excited to get back out on this board I dont ever want to ride a different board to be honest. BUY BUY BUY IT IF YOU ARE THINKING ABOUT IT.
United StatesPerfect board
I have had the opportunity to ride a ton of boards, but nothing has yet to compare to the mercury! Perfect board for me.
