Men's Capita PATHFINDER Snowboard
Product Details
PATHFINDER
The Pathfinder is a must-have deck for your resort quiver.
It is fun, maneuverable, easy to ride, and capable of big things.
Offered in both low-rise camber for carving and ollie power and a reverse camber option for a more loose and skate-style feel, there is a choice for all riders looking for a board with a performance pedigree at a modest price.
The Pathfinder has proven itself as one of the best consumer buys in the game, featuring a throwback blunted shape with a shorter tip and tail for decreased swing weight and a time-tested, lightweight, and durable construction configuration.
The Pathfinder Camber option provides enhanced ollie power and edge retention for high-speed carving via an elongated camber profile.
These boards shine on jumps, jibs, transitions and are a value-packed option for your next freestyle and park focused resort board.

PARK V1 + FLAT KICK TECH
The PARK V1 camber configuration zeros out a traditional camber approach 4cm before the end of the sidecut.
The small zero camber sections provide a more controlled ride while retaining the response and power of a cambered board.

Core
P2 SUPERLIGHT CORE™
Extremely lightweight and versatile core combined with high impact resistance and maximum pop.
CARBON ARAMID BODY ARMOR™
Known for its rigidity, high-tensile strength, low weight, high-temperature tolerance, and low thermal expansion, Carbon Fiber is one of the most popular materials used in today's high-performance applications.
Laminates
PLT TOPSHEET TECHNOLOGY™
PLT Topsheet Technology™ is exclusive to CAPiTA MFG and magically bonds the topsheet to an already pressed snowboard.
This produces a featherlight, smooth, high-gloss finish, without using any solvents or toxic laquers in finishing.
SPECIAL BLEND BIAXIAL FIBERGLASS
SPECIAL BLEND is an eco-friendly wet lay-up process that uses our MAGIC BEAN™ resin component requiring lower consumption of energy and yielding higher technical properties.
This adhesion process improves the factory's working environment, as it does not contain some of the same harsh chemical characteristics used in resins at other factories around the world.
Magic Bean Resin
This advanced resin system has a bio-content of 60% renewable, agricultural raw material and is produced with no waste or greenhouse emissions.
In production, it has a low-temperature requirement with a high yield output.
Poppy, powerful, and extremely durable, MAGIC BEAN™ resin yields much stronger and more rigid qualities allowing a decrease in the wood core thickness.
This means you get a lighter board while achieving higher energy return.
Base
SUPERDRIVE™ EX BASE
The SUPERDRIVE™ base material lives in the Sintruded category of boards that deliver benefits of both sintruded and extruded bases.
These bases take the characteristics and manufacturing techniques used in creating extruded base material, but due to higher pressure and temperature, increase the surface hardness to levels near most sintered bases.
This expands the durability and surface strength, creating a base that will be more durable when jibbing and ripping around the mountain while retaining low maintenance and carefree lifepan of the board.
SUPERDRIVE™ EX is the benchmark for sintruded base material.
Edges
360° HRC48 Steel Edges
1.5MM CORK EDGE DAMPENING SYSTEM
Damp, durable, and lighter than rubber, our CORK EDGE DAMPENING SYSTEM is placed in between the steel edge and the ABS sidewall for increased protection from blunt force impacts.
Additional Features
By the most experienced crafters.
At The MotherShip™, the renowned tradition of snowboard manufacturing in the Austrian Alps runs deep.
Our craftsmen meticulously press each board with a bespoke, computer-controlled, recipe of ingredients to deliver an optimal ride experience.
Freshly pressed boards undergo hand inspection before moving on to the grinding and finishing stages.
Machine precision meets hand inspection.
Before leaving the production line every snowboard undergoes a meticulous final hand inspection.
We hold our boards to rigorous standards to ensure they meet your high expectations.
Each CAPiTA snowboard leaving our facility is certified as world-class and proudly sealed with the MotherShip™ quality control stamp of approval.
Thermal Insert Drilling
Unlike other snowboard factories that rely on a human hand and a standard drill for tapping board inserts, which can be prone to imprecision and generate excess scrap, The Mothership stands out with its newly developed automated thermal insert drilling technology.
This advanced system utilizes thermal scanning to identify the precise location of each insert and taps them with robotic precision.
The result is a precise insert connection that instills confidence in a higher-performing product, guaranteeing a solid binding-to-snowboard connection.
Factory Tuned
Board comes waxed and ready for the mountain right from the factory.
Warranty
CAPiTA Snowboards are hand-crafted in Austria at the snowboard industry's most technologically advanced and environmentally responsible manufacturing facility.
We are proud to offer a warranty policy guaranteeing that your CAPiTA snowboard is free from defects in material or workmanship for a period of two (2) years from the date of purchase.
Binding Compatibility
Stainless Steel 2 x 4 Inserts
The MotherShip™ Connection "NFC"
Enhanced Precision Through Technology
In 2020, The Mothership became the first in the snowboard industry to introduce an NFC system in our snowboards.
This chip enables precise tracking of each board's production journey, resulting in higher quality and reduced waste.
Beyond the production floor, we have taken NFC capabilities to the next level.
Now, you can connect with your board by simply scanning it with your phone.
This NFC interface enables you to register your snowboard, streamlining the customer service process and granting exclusive early access to new product information, drops, and CAPiTA team videos exclusively for NFC-registered users
