Capita Aeronaut 2027 Snowboard
Beschrijving
The Capita Aeronaut 2027 is a directional all-mountain snowboard developed for riders who want speed, response, and reliable control across resort terrain. Designed with input from Arthur Longo, this model is built around a precise, powerful platform that suits riders who approach the mountain with a fast, terrain-driven style, from carved groomer lines to natural side hits and sidecountry features.
The board uses a directional shape with a 0.8” setback, giving it a stance and geometry that favour forward drive, stability, and improved float in softer snow. Combined with a progressive sidecut, the Aeronaut is positioned for confident edge engagement and smooth turn initiation, especially when carrying speed through variable resort conditions.
Its Directional Flex 6 places it in a versatile, moderately responsive category. This makes it suitable for riders looking for a board that feels supportive and composed without becoming overly demanding. The overall character is tuned for resort and all-mountain use, with enough structure for strong carving and enough versatility for side hits, jumps, and technical terrain transitions.
The Alpine V3 Directional camber profile combines low rise camber with zero camber sections before the end of the sidecut. In practice, this keeps much of the energy, precision, and power associated with cambered boards, while adding a more controlled and manageable ride. It is a profile aimed at riders who want clean edge hold and response, but with a smoother feel when terrain or snow conditions become less predictable.
Construction is focused on lightweight strength and high-speed performance. The Panda Hover Core uses bamboo power rods for increased power and response, while CarbonFlax Amplifiers add snap, durability, and damping. Underfoot, the HyperDrive ADV XT Base is engineered for speed and improved durability, making it well suited to riders who spend full days covering ground and maintaining pace across the mountain.
Overall, the Aeronaut 2027 is a refined choice for riders seeking a directional snowboard with a fast base, responsive flex pattern, and resort-focused all-mountain layout. It is built for carving, natural takeoffs, and technical terrain use, with a shape and construction that prioritise control, speed, and strong edge-to-edge energy.
