2027 CAPiTA Mercury Snowboard | The All-Terrain Space Station for Total Mountain Mastery

The 2027 CAPiTA Mercury is back and ready to be your daily driver for all things snowboarding. Known for its legendary all-mountain versatility and incredible power underfoot, it’s no wonder style master Kevin Backstrom makes this his board of choice every single year. Whether you’re sending natural kickers in the Thredbo side-country or floating effortlessly through deep stashes at Hotham, the Mercury gives you the confidence to break the surly bonds of gravity. It is a revolutionary freeride weapon that turns the entire mountain into a playground, designed to destroy your ideas of what a single snowboard is capable of achieving.

Key Technical Features

• Resort V2 Directional Profile + Flat Kick Tech: This groundbreaking shape offers the perfect balance of power and float. A raised camber platform between the inserts ensures rock-solid edge hold at high speeds, while elevated contact points and Flat Kick arcs provide effortless stability in powder and lightning-fast transitions.
• New Age Progressive Sidecut + Death Grip™: This isn't your average sidecut. By blending multiple radii with a reverse-arc "Death Grip" in the midsection, CAPiTA has created a board that stays locked-in through every turn, providing consistent control even on "bulletproof" morning ice.
• Flex 6.5/10 (Power & Versatility): Sitting in the aggressive mid-stiff range, this flex is the "Goldilocks" zone for Intermediate to Advanced riders. It provides the high-speed response needed for technical lines while remaining damp enough to absorb chatter in variable Aussie conditions.
• Hover Core™: A premium, ultra-lightweight blend of alternating Paulownia and Poplar wood. This core is exceptionally strong and offers elite dampening properties, making the board feel smooth and authoritative when you're pinning it down a steep run.
• Carbonflax™ Amplifiers: Four 25mm composite strips fuse the explosive energy of carbon with the vibration-absorbing qualities of natural flax. This results in next-level stability and energy transfer, ensuring your board doesn't wash out when the terrain gets demanding.
• Hyperdrive™ Sintered Base: Crafted from high-molecular-mass polyethylene, this base is built for pure, anti-friction speed. It’s ultra-fast and incredibly durable, providing the drive needed to clear flat sections and keep you ahead of the pack.
• Holysheet™ Tri/Bi Fiberglass & Magic Bean™ Resin: High-tensile fiberglass layers are bonded with an eco-friendly, plant-based resin. This construction provides a higher glass-to-weight ratio, resulting in a lighter, more responsive ride that’s also better for the planet.

Why You’ll Love It

The 2027 CAPiTA Mercury is the definitive choice for the Intermediate to Advanced rider who wants a "quiver killer" that leans toward the aggressive side of freeride. Its Directional shape and high-performance core make it a powerhouse for carving and powder, yet it remains nimble enough for creative freestyle maneuvers. If you want a board that will take you to new planets without compromising on durability or environmental responsibility, the Mercury is the final frontier of all-mountain performance.
