CAPiTA D.O.A. Snowboard – Defenders of Awesome

The CAPiTA D.O.A. (Defenders of Awesome) Snowboard is an award-winning all-mountain freestyle board designed for riders who want to push their limits across the entire resort. Combining explosive pop, responsive edge control and a playful, versatile ride, the D.O.A. has earned its reputation as one of the most iconic freestyle snowboards on the mountain. From carving fast groomers and launching park jumps to hitting rails, riding switch and exploring fresh snow, this versatile true twin is built to make every run count.

At the heart of the D.O.A. is CAPiTA's Resort V1 profile, which combines traditional positive camber between the bindings with flat and reverse-camber zones towards the tips. This hybrid profile delivers the powerful energy, reliable edge hold and precision of camber, while the Flat Kick Tech sections help make turn initiation smoother and the overall ride more forgiving. The result is a lively, responsive board that encourages confident carving, delivers impressive pop off jumps and remains versatile enough for creative freestyle riding.

The true twin shape gives the D.O.A. a symmetrical nose and tail, with a centred stance that makes riding switch feel just as natural as riding in your regular direction. This makes it particularly well suited to freestyle progression, whether you're practising switch take-offs, landing tricks, linking park features or simply enjoying a more playful approach to riding the mountain. Its medium flex rating of approximately 5.5/10 strikes a balance between stability and manoeuvrability, providing enough support for powerful turns and bigger jumps while remaining flexible enough for presses, butters and freestyle experimentation.

Under the topsheet, CAPiTA's P2 Superlight™ Core combines lightweight wood construction with an energetic response, helping reduce overall weight while delivering impressive pop and durability. Hybrid HolySheet™ fibreglass laminates are interwoven with carbon reinforcement to improve responsiveness, torsional control and energy transfer. These materials work together to create a board that feels lively underfoot, responds quickly to rider input and returns energy when loading the board into turns, ollies and jumps.

For riders who value speed, the D.O.A. features CAPiTA's Quantum Drive™ sintered base, designed to absorb wax effectively and maintain a fast, consistent glide when properly serviced. The high-density base construction supports durability during regular riding, while the blended radial sidecut promotes smooth turn transitions and dependable edge engagement. Together, these features give the board the versatility to move confidently between high-speed piste riding, freestyle sessions and all-mountain exploration.

Finished with CAPiTA's distinctive graphics and performance-driven construction, the D.O.A. is an excellent choice for intermediate to advanced snowboarders looking for one board that can handle almost everything the resort has to offer. Whether you're progressing your freestyle skills, chasing bigger jumps or carving from first lift to last, the Defenders of Awesome delivers the pop, precision and versatility to keep your riding evolving.
