CAPITA Defenders Of Awesome 152 snowboard

The Defenders of Awesome series has a big reputation and these boards back it up. As winners of the most coveted design award in snowboarding for an unprecedented six years in a row, this highly sought after series has now won a Transworld Good Wood Award every single year of its existence. That's an undefeated record, folks! The DOA features a next-generation hybrid-camber design which delivers the pop and response of a cambered board with the predictability of reverse-camber. With construction technology like Fortress™ Kevlar Bound Sidewalls advancing these boards beyond their modest retail price, the DOA series stands proud as the ultimate go anywhere, do anything freestyle deck.

Board Type: Park Laps and Everywhere Else

Camber Type: Hybrid Camber Profile 

Positive Camber in the centre of the board with flat camber from the inserts out to the contact points. This board rides with the pop and great carving skills of a camber board but you won't dig your nose and tail contact points in quite as hard which means less unexpected bails after landing your tricks.

Flex: 5.5/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)

Great Medium flex that can hit big jumps, press rails and ride all over the mountain.

Shape: Twin

Built for multi directional riding, spinning and jibbing. Ride it forwards, backwards or upside down.

Core: DS Select RFC Sustainable DualCore

The best pieces of Birch and poplar wood are chosen for this core. The Birch is lightweight while the poplar is strong and placed under the inserts. It gives you all the power you could ever want while remaining light enough to spin on and off rails.

Base - Sintered

Fast, durable, and are consistently the dominant first choice of pro snowboarders worldwide. 

Additional Features

Carbon Fibre Beams- Carbon Fibre is laid parallel to the edge along the length of the board for more pop and power without any added weight.

Fortress Kevlar Bound Sidewalls - Kevlar is laid up above the sidewalls for extra control and power in your turns.
