Snowboard specialist from Sideways speaks out
- Very fun playful board.
- Does not immediately punish you when you don't execute a trick well.
- Also very fun on the slopes!
- Side hits are great, but in deep powder it can quickly become difficult.
Everything about the Capita Space Metal Fantasy
Everything about the Capita Space Metal Fantasy
The five-time Transworld Good Wood Award-winning Space Metal Fantasy is widely regarded as one of the best park boards for women on the market.
Capite presents this as a park snowboard, but in reality, it is much more than that. With the Space Metal Fantasy, you can carve on the slopes, play on features in the park, and it even floats ridiculously well in the powder.
This very forgiving reverse camber shape provides a fun experience for beginner to advanced riders who want to accelerate the learning curve and take their riding to the next level on many different types of terrain.
Meet Capita Space Metal Fantasy
Capita Space Metal Fantasy has an impressive track record with five consecutive Transworld Good Wood Awards to its name. It is widely recognized as one of the best park boards for women on the market. However, to be fair, the label 'park board' seriously undermines its potential.
While we present this as a park series for classification purposes, the truth is that it is so much more than that. The Space Metal Fantasy is not only suitable for top-notch tricks in the park, but also offers a lot of fun while carving turns on the slopes and floats extraordinarily well in powder snow. This exceptionally forgiving reverse camber shape provides an enjoyable experience for beginner to intermediate riders who want to accelerate their learning curve and elevate their skills across different types of terrain. The S.M.F. serves as a launch pad for progression and can excel in any riding environment without breaking the bank.
Park V2 Flatbase profile
Regarding the camber profile, the Space Metal Fantasy features the Park V2 camber. This means that the board has a double reverse camber Flat Kick freestyle shape. A zero camber section throughout the effective area offers a stable skate-like feel, while elevated contact points ensure an excellent turning radius and effortless float in powder snow.
In short, Capita Space Metal Fantasy is an extraordinarily versatile snowboard. Whether you want to sharpen your skills in the park, enjoy high-speed runs on the slopes, or revel in deep powder snow, this board guarantees a phenomenal experience. Investing in the Space Metal Fantasy is an investment in your progression and enjoyment on the mountain.

Technical Specifications
Capita snowboards are handcrafted in Austria using self-generated clean energy at The MotherShip™.
The SUPERDRIVE™ base material belongs to the category of sintered plates that offer the advantages of both sintered and extruded bases. These bases have the properties and production techniques of extruded base material, but due to the higher pressure and temperature, the hardness of the surface is increased to levels that approach those of most sintered bases. This enhances the durability and strength of the surface, resulting in a base that is more durable during jibbing and tearing on the mountain, while the board requires little maintenance and has a carefree lifespan.
Poppy lightweight poplar core combined with beech for more strength and durability.
The Capita MotherShip™ is the world's newest, technologically most advanced snowboard manufacturing facility - a marvel of clean energy production. We generate the energy for the Capita production processes through a hydro-active NH3 thermal energy system on-site, in combination with our recently expanded solar panels.
SPECIAL BLEND is an environmentally friendly lay-up process that uses our MAGIC BEAN™ resin component, which consumes less energy and delivers higher 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.
These versatile boards have a Flat Kick freestyle shape with double reverse camber. A zero camber section throughout the insert provides a stable skate feel, while the elevated contact points turn on a dime and seamlessly float in the powder.
A snowboard where the shape and dimensions are completely symmetrical, both in length and width.
