Capita Men's Mega Merc Snowboard 2025

2025 Capita Mega Merc Snowboard

Behold! The consummate anytime, any-place, all-terrain, snow-slaying device; The MEGA MERC. Inspired by the on-slope versatility of the Mercury series, the MEGA MERC mimics its proven technical design lines while packing a powerful punch of serious construction upgrades.

Designed for power when you want it, and float when you need it, the MEGA MERC is the ultimate, ultra-premium, shred-anything snowboard you can trust to handle it all.

Ultralight and ultra-versatile, the Mega Merc harnesses its 3D Thermopolymer Starship Core™ with an all-new Hybrid Holy-Sheet™ Tri/Tri MEGACARBON™ configuration and MEGADRIVE™ XT base for unparalleled all-mountain performance.

CAMBER PROFILE

• Resort V2 Profile – This revolutionary all-terrain shape provides the best of both worlds. It has a raised camber platform through the inserts to retain high-speed edge hold through variable terrain, elevated contact points to land and float in powder, and Flat Kick tip and tail arcs for faster, more aggressive transitions.

FLEX

• Flex Rating – 6.5/10 (1=Soft,10=Stiff)
• Directional Flex

SHAPE

• Directional
• New Age Progressive with Death Grip - This board features a progressive sidecut which incorporates a reverse sidecut arc in the middle of the board. Due to a reduced effective edge as a result of hybrid camber shapes, this reverse camber arc adds an additional point of contact in the center of the board (aka Death Grip), allowing you to retain better control through turns.

CORE

• FSC® Certified 3D Thermopolymer Starship Core™ – Utilizing an advanced electronic sorting system allows Capita to select mega-premium, reforestation certified, Poplar graded by weight and grain consistency. Comparable to Paulownia in strength to weight ratio, this core retains the poppiness of Poplar, and then achieves a signature feel by adding bonded post-consumer recycled Thermopolymer channels to form an advanced hybrid core. This mega-premium core will blast you into space and beyond.

LAMINATES

• NEW - Hybrid Holysheet™ Tri/Tri Glass – This cutting-edge development is the result of a collaborative effort with Capita's glass supplier. Capita has ingeniously interwoven carbon additives directly into their HOLYSHEET™ fiberglass, leading to a substantial enhancement in precision during layup and a notable reduction in weight.
• Megacarbon™ Array – Mega-wide carbon tape on both top and bottom of the woodcore = four times the power and response of previous carbon additives.

SIDEWALLS

• Full ABS1000 Sidewalls

BASE

• Die-Cut Base
• NEW - Megadrive™ XT Base – Striving to kit out their MEGA line-up with the most advanced and premium components, the all new MEGADRIVE™ base is as fast as science can make it. This is a pure race base composed of UHMW polyethylene modified with high carbon content and special fluoro additives for lightspeed gliding in a wide range of conditions. Capita has increased the thickness of their XT bases for enhanced durability.
• Moonshot Omni-Tune™ – Aftermarket performance stone grind structure straight from The Mothership, optimized for regular and switch riding.

EDGES

• 360 Degree HRC48 Steel Edges

TOPSHEET

• PAM16000™ Topsheet
• Megalite Skin™ Topsheet – Super thin yet durable matte lamina for 60% weight reduction over Capita's regular topsheets.
• PLT™ Topsheet Technology – PLT™ technology is exclusive to CAPiTA MFG and magically bonds the topsheet to an already pressed snowboard.

BINDING COMPATIBILITY

• Stainless Steel 2 x 4 Inserts
