Snowboard Capita Kazu Kokubo Pro - 2024/25

This is a fast and sharp snowboard, cutting through backcountry terrain like no other. While many excellent powder boards are large and surfy, the CAPiTA Kazu Kokubo Pro stands out with its compact build featuring a powder nose and slightly tapered tail, making this award-winning series fast and agile. This versatility is ideal for those off-piste powder mornings and handles beautifully on chopped-up slopes later in the day. Maximum power is unleashed thanks to the new ultra-light PANDA HOVER CORE™ with bamboo power rods and CARBONFLAX™ AMPLIFIER strips, which also provide vibration damping.

For this year, CAPiTA has added a new, faster, and thicker base to Kazu. The upgraded sintered HYPERDRIVE™ ADV XT base, equipped with factory Moonshot Omni Tune™ structure, further drains water and accelerates your ride even more. The wood veneer topsheet is not only stunning but also lighter than the classic version. Although the bar is set high, this board is your first step towards emulating Kazu's legendary riding style.

RIDER TYPE: All Mountain + Powder
RIDER LEVEL: Advanced/Expert

FLEX: 6.5/10

TECHNICAL DETAILS:

• CORE: PANDA HOVER CORE™
  A new, ultra-light core made of paulownia and poplar wood, reinforced with bamboo power rods for added power.

• FEATURES:
  4 x 25mm CARBONFLAX™ AMPLIFIER – A new-generation natural flax fiber woven with carbon fibers, used in our highest-quality snowboard constructions. This tape combines the reactive energy of carbon with the lightness and damping properties of flax.

• FIBERGLASS: HOLYSHEET™ FIBERGLASS
  Triax/Biax HOLYSHEET™ fiberglass has a higher glass-to-weight ratio than standard fiberglass.

• RESIN: MAGIC BEAN™ RESIN
  An eco-friendly resin produced without waste and greenhouse gas emissions, allowing for a lighter board construction while maintaining excellent riding properties.

• SINTERED BASE: NEW! HYPERDRIVE™ ADV XT BASE™
  An exclusive formula created specifically for CAPiTA The Mothership factory, offering extraordinary sliding properties. This sintered material has a patented composition and is incredibly fast, and this year, it’s even thicker for added durability.

• NEW BASE STRUCTURE! MOONSHOT OMNI-TUNE™
  A high-performance structure ready for riding right out of the box. It allows water to be drained from your board at a 45-degree angle, making your board the F1 among snowboards.

• LAMINATE: SKINLESS™ CORE ASH WOODGRAIN TOPSHEET™
  Specially processed ash wood veneer, which is 220g lighter than the standard laminate. Ash wood is characterized by high strength, flexibility, and low weight, while its light color and distinct grain give the boards an elegant look.

• EDGES: 360 Degree HRC48 Steel Edges

• SIDECUT: RADIAL TAPER
  An edge designed for deep powder but versatile on the entire mountain. The tapered tail naturally sinks in the powder while the wider nose floats above the snow line, resulting in less effort and more fun as the board surfs on one smooth, continuous arc.

• SIDEWALL: Full ABS1000 Sidewalls

• INSERTS: Stainless Steel 4 x 2 Inserts
