Snowboard CAPITA Pathfinder Camber 151 2025
The Pathfinder is a great entry-level board in CAPiTA's collection. It is very maneuverable, provides lots of fun, and, most importantly, is easy to ride, forgiving, and capable of great things. With its strong reputation and modest price, the Pathfinder remains one of the most sought-after boards for beginners.
The Pathfinder features a classic camber profile with an extended contact zone 4 cm before the end of the effective edge, providing significantly greater control, responsiveness, and stability. The board is equipped with a very solid core made of poplar and beech DUAL CORE™ and fiberglass SPECIAL BLEND FIBERGLASS reinforced with MAGIC BEAN™ resin for increased power, pop, and durability.
This is also an ideal board for beginners, easy to ride and forgiving of mistakes.

PROFILE:
- CAMBER: PARK V1 PROFILE - The PARK V1 camber configuration zeroes out traditional camber 4 cm before the end of the sidecut. Small sections of zero camber provide a more controlled ride while retaining the response and power of a traditional camber board. In short, boards with the PARK V1 profile are more stable and better for edge riding than classic camber boards.
TECHNICAL DETAILS:
- CORE: DUAL CORE™ - A lightweight and responsive poplar core combined with beech for increased power and durability.
- FIBERGLASS: SPECIAL BLEND FIBERGLASS - Biax/Biax – An optimal blend of biaxial fiberglass, lighter than traditional fiberglass.
- RESIN: MAGIC BEAN™ RESIN - Capita uses eco-friendly resin for all their boards, produced with no waste and no greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, it provides high performance with reduced heat demand, which means less energy consumption in the snowboard manufacturing process. As a result, the core can be lighter while maintaining the same board properties, making CAPiTA boards 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 belongs to the Sintruded category, combining the benefits of both sintered and extruded bases. These bases utilize characteristics and manufacturing techniques typical of extruded bases, but by applying higher pressure and temperature during production, they achieve surface hardness comparable to most sintered bases. This results in increased durability and surface strength, making the base more resistant to damage while offering low maintenance requirements and hassle-free use.
- EDGES: 360-degree HRC48 Steel Edges.
- SIDECUT: RADIAL - The sidecut shape, characterized by a segment of the edge shape from the same arc, allows you to start and finish a turn on the same arc. Thanks to being cut from a single arc, the board is more predictable, which increases confidence, smoothly guides throughout the arc, and is easy to control. Moreover, the classic radial is energy-efficient and effective. A well-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 with various skills and riding preferences.
- SIDEWALL: Full ABS1000 sidewalls.
- INSERTS: Stainless steel 4x2 inserts.
MADE IN AUSTRIA! Capita designs and develops new technologies in its own factory, which is not the industry standard. This gives them access to the best technologies in the production of their boards. CAPiTA MFG – The Mothership is an example of how modern manufacturing should operate. ZERO CO2 emissions, energy drawn from renewable sources, and 98% of the materials used in board production are sourced from nearby regions, minimizing transportation-related pollution. The factory even has its own slope for testing new solutions!
