All about the Capita Pathfinder
The Capita Pathfinder is a must-have snowboard for your resort quiver. Fun, nimble, easy to ride and capable of great things
The Pathfinder has both a low-rise camber for carving and ollie power and a reverse camber option for a looser, more skate-like feel. There is therefore a choice for all riders looking for a board with good performance at a modest price.
The Pathfinder has proven itself as one of the best bargains for consumers on the market, with a stubby throwback shape featuring a shorter nose and tail for less swing weight and a proven, lightweight, and durable construction.
Meet the Capita Pathfinder
The Capita Pathfinder is an essential snowboard for your resort adventures. This board combines playfulness, agility and ease of use with the potential to deliver great performance. Available in both a low-rise camber for powerful carves and ollies, and a reverse camber option for a looser, skate-like feel, there is a choice for every rider looking for a board with an impressive track record at a modest price. The Pathfinder has proven itself as one of the best buys on the market, with its distinctive truncated shape, shorter tip and tail for reduced swing weight and a proven, lightweight and durable construction.
The Pathfinder Camber option offers increased ollie power and edge hold for carving at high speeds, thanks to an extended camber profile. These boards excel on jumps, jibs and transitions and are a valuable choice for your next freestyle and park-oriented resort board.
The PARK V1 + FLAT KICK TECH camber profile of the Pathfinder stands out by disabling the traditional camber section 4 cm before the end of the sidecut. The small zero-camber sections provide a controlled ride while retaining the response and power of a cambered board.
In short, the Capita Pathfinder embodies the perfect combination of performance, versatility and affordability. Whether you want to dominate the park, make technical descents or just have fun on the piste, the Pathfinder is ready to guide you. With its thoughtful design and advanced construction, this board is an indispensable companion for any rider looking for a snowboard that is both exciting and reliable. The Pathfinder is not just a board; it is an investment in your snowboarding experience and a guarantee of mountain adventures you won’t soon forget.

Technical Specifications
Capita snowboards are handmade in Austria using self-generated clean energy in The MotherShip™.
The SUPERDRIVE™ base material belongs to the category of sinter-pressed sheets that offer the advantages of both sintered and extruded bases. These bases have the properties and manufacturing techniques of extruded base material, but due to the higher pressure and temperature the hardness of the surface is increased to levels that approach most sintered bases. This increases the durability and strength of the surface, creating a base that is more durable during jibbing and shredding on the mountain, while the board requires little maintenance and has a worry-free lifespan
Poppy's lightweight poplar core is combined with beech for increased strength and durability.
The Capita MotherShip™ is the world's newest, technologically most advanced snowboard production facility - a marvel of clean energy generation. We generate the energy for the Capita production processes via an on-site hydro-active NH3 thermal energy system, in combination with our recently expanded solar panels.
SPECIAL BLEND is an environmentally friendly wet lay-up process that uses our MAGIC BEAN™ resin component which consumes less energy and yields superior technical properties. This bonding process improves the working environment in the factory because it does not contain the same aggressive chemical properties found in resins used in other factories around the world.
The PARK V1 camber configuration sets a traditional camber 4 cm before the end of the sidecut to zero. The small zero camber sections provide a more controlled ride while retaining the responsiveness and power of a cambered board.
A snowboard whose shape and dimensions are completely symmetrical, both in length and width
