CAPITADefenders of Awesome Snowboard

The Capita Defender is an absolute beast on the mountain! This board is so smooth and responsive, I swear it reads my mind before I even turn. Whether I’m carving, hitting jumps, or accidentally sending it into a tree (don’t worry, the board survived—can’t say the same for my dignity), it handles everything like a champ.The pop is incredible, the stability at high speeds is next-level, and it’s got just the right amount of flex to make it fun without feeling like a wet noodle. Plus, the graphics are sick—because let’s be honest, looking cool in the lift line is half the battle.If you’re thinking about getting one, stop thinking and just do it. This board won’t just make you a better rider—it might also convince you that you belong in the X Games (even if your face says otherwise after a failed trick).

Love it. Nice flexibility. Board is quick too.

The board looks great, only issue is it has a few chips and scratches in it. It was not shipped in a box, but rather in a plastic wrap that was already ripped open when it reached my house. Who ships a snowboard in thin plastic wrap and no other protection?

Board showed up IN A PLASTIC BAG. SERIOUSLY??? Edges were chipped as a result, so I sent it back. Who ships a $550 snowboard in a plastic bag?! Other than that it's a completely average board, appears mass-produced and mundane. Colors of the graphics do not represent well - bland and uninspiring in person. The board itself felt light but flimsy. Board flex felt jittery like a fishing pole. Edge metal felt scrawny and meager. Base was bone dry, not even a coat of courtesy roll-on wax (to be expected, but be prepared to hand wax or pay for one). For the money I would look elsewhere.

Great
