Mega Death is a board designed for advanced freeriders who can fully harness the performance of top-tier equipment. Inspired by the legendary Black Snowboard of Death, the Mega Death is engineered for incredibly lightweight and powerful riding. This is an exclusive, high-tech freeride machine like no other.
Fully equipped with cutting-edge technology and design philosophy developed at the world’s most advanced production facility, THE CAPiTA MOTHERSHIP, this ultra-lightweight construction is built around the certified THERMOPOLYMER STARSHIP CORE™ and features the unique PURE MEGACARBON™ fiber for unparalleled performance.
While it draws inspiration from the Black Snowboard of Death as an all-mountain freeride board, the Mega Death is powered by the fastest sintered race base MEGADRIVE™ XT with factory-tuned MOONSHOT OMNI TUNE™, which not only channels water away but also boosts the board's speed. The Mega Death is a truly versatile, high-performance freeride machine ready to take on any slope you dare to conquer. Its shockingly low weight surprises everyone who comes into contact with it.
RIDER TYPE: All-Mountain / Freeride
RIDER LEVEL: Intermediate/Advanced
FLEX: 6.5/10
BOARD SHAPE: Directional (Setback 0.8”)
PROFILE: Camber/Hybrid (Alpine V1 Profile)
ALPINE V1 PROFILE:
This profile features camber in the middle of the board, with a flat tail and reverse camber at the nose. It provides tons of pop and stability on hard snow while enhancing float and control in deep snow. The longer camber in the tail delivers extra power during descents and is ideal for larger riders seeking a wider board.
TECHNICAL DETAILS:
-
CORE: 3D Thermopolymer Starship Core™
Extremely lightweight and versatile, this core is highly impact-resistant and delivers maximum pop. It’s a hybrid core combining ultra-light and strong paulownia wood with responsive poplar, enhanced with recycled thermopolymer inserts. The result is a cosmic energy transfer to the edges and incredible pop!
-
EXTRAS: Inlaid Alloy Nose + Tail Skid Plate
Additional reinforcements on the nose and tail – ultra-lightweight and durable, reducing weight while enhancing strength.
-
FIBER: Pure Megacarbon™ Glass
Triple-layer carbon fiber weave (instead of fiberglass) on both sides of the core for better energy transfer to the edge and the best stiffness-to-weight ratio.
-
BASE: Sintered Megadrive™ XT Base
New, specially engineered sintered base. It’s a pure race surface made from UHMW polyethylene, modified with high carbon content and special fluorine additives for light-speed performance in diverse snow conditions. Perfect for the most depraved speed demons. The base is thicker than previous versions for increased durability.
-
BASE STRUCTURE: Moonshot Omni-Tune™
High-performance base structure with 45-degree water channeling, giving this board an extra kick of speed.
-
SIDECUT: New Age Progressive Death Grip™
Advanced sidecut combining progressive edge characteristics with Death Grip™ technology. The progressive edge consists of two or more radii, allowing for easier turn initiation, better control, and maximum power at the end of the turn. Death Grip™ adds an inverted arc in the middle of the board, increasing the contact point for better grip and precise pressure application. This combination in the New Age Progressive edge makes the board exceptionally versatile, offering easy turn initiation, excellent control, and maximum power while providing an extra contact point and control thanks to Death Grip™ technology.
-
EDGES: 360 Degree HRC48 Steel Edges
-
