CAPITA Space Metal Fantasy 149W 2025 snowboard

Women's Snowboard CAPiTA Space Metal Fantasy 149 Wide 2024

The CAPiTA Space Metal Fantasy snowboard is a five-time award-winning board, recognized as the best board of the year in its category, which is already a strong endorsement! Widely regarded as one of the best women's park boards on the market. However, to be fair, calling it a park board significantly limits its potential. For classification purposes, we present it among freestyle park boards, but in reality, it offers much more.

The Space Metal Fantasy is great for carving the slopes, playing in the park, and even floats incredibly well in powder. This highly forgiving reverse camber shape provides lots of fun for intermediate riders looking to speed up their learning and advance to higher levels of riding across various types of terrain.

The Space Metal Fantasy excels in diverse resort terrains and freestyle, thanks to the proven combination of DUAL CORE™ and SPECIAL BLEND FIBERGLASS reinforced with MAGIC BEAN™ resin.

PROFILE:

• ROCKER: PARK V2 - These versatile boards have a freestyle shape. Zero camber between the inserts provides a stable skateboard-like feel, while elevated contact points turn on a dime and float effortlessly in powder.

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

• CORE: DUAL CORE™ - A lightweight and responsive poplar core combined with beech for added power and durability.

• FIBER: SPECIAL BLEND FIBERGLASS - Biax / Biax – an optimal blend of biaxial fiberglass, lighter than traditional.
• RESIN: MAGIC BEAN™ RESIN - Capita uses eco-friendly resin for all its boards, produced without waste and greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, it provides high performance with reduced heat demand, meaning lower energy consumption in the snowboard production process. This allows the core to be lighter while maintaining the board's properties. That's why CAPiTA boards are some of the lightest on the market!
• BASE: SUPERDRIVE™ BASE - This new technology combines the best of both worlds: the speed and hardness of a sintered base and the durability of an extruded base. If you don't have time for frequent base maintenance, this board is for you. The SUPERDRIVE™ base material falls into the Sintruded category, combining the benefits of both sintered and extruded bases. These bases use techniques typical of extruded bases, but with higher pressure and temperature during production, they achieve surface hardness comparable to most sintered bases. This results in increased durability and resistance to damage, while also offering low maintenance requirements and hassle-free board use.

• EDGES: 360-degree HRC48 Steel Edges.
• SIDECUT: RADIAL - The edge shape, characterized by a cutout from the same arc, allows you to start and finish a turn on the same arc. The board is more predictable, which increases confidence, smooths the entire arc, and is easy to control. Moreover, classic radial is energy and performance-efficient. A skillfully designed turning radius supports the natural movement of the snowboarder, allowing for dynamic and smooth maneuvers. The radial design is valued for its smoothness, ease of control, and versatility, making it a popular choice among snowboarders of various skill levels and riding preferences.
• SIDEWALL: Full ABS1000 sidewalls with protection.
• INSERTS: Stainless steel 4x2 inserts
• LAMINATE: PLT™ - PLT™ technology is exclusive to CAPiTA MFG and magically bonds the top layer to the already pressed snowboard. This is unique in the snowboard industry, as the rest of the world applies top layers of graphics using glue, heat, and pressure during the pressing stage. This causes the fiberglass structure underneath to show through the top layer. And since no one wants to spend their hard-earned money on an uneven snowboard, many companies additionally coat their boards with thick, toxic varnish to even out the surface. Not only is this HEAVY and can lead to unsightly cracks, but it is also very unhealthy for the work environment. The PLT™ machine produces feather-light, smooth, glossy finishes without all that toxic ballast, resulting in a great-looking multi-layer laminate structure. The combination of matte, glossy elements, and gold lettering makes a stunning impression. In addition to the final pressing of the ink into the board, CAPiTA uses digital printing and classic screen printing throughout the production process, ensuring the graphics are multi-layered.

MADE IN AUSTRIA! Capita designs and develops new technologies in its own factory, which is not the norm in the industry. This ensures access to the best technologies for producing their own boards. CAPiTA MFG – The Mothership is an example of how modern production should work. ZERO CO2 emissions, energy drawn from renewable sources, and 98% of the materials used in board production are sourced from nearby regions, ensuring they do not contribute to pollution from transport. The factory even has its own slope for testing new solutions!
