TJ from the Board Archive tests out the all-around versatility of the CAPiTA Mercury.
The Mercury is designed for power when you want it and float when you need it. Featuring a Hover Core™, CarbonFlax™ Amplifiers and a HolySheet™ Tri/Bi fiberglass configuration, the Mercury’s durability and ollie power reign supreme.
This KB Mercury LTD, features a graphic designed by Kevin himself with a nod to his origin story in snowboarding.
Available now in limited quantity worldwide, the KB Mercury LTD comes in a 155, 157 and 159 cm size and is your chance to emulate his legendary all-mountain snowboarding style.
This revolutionary all-terrain shape provides the best of both worlds. It has a raised camber platform through the inserts to retain high-speed edge hold through variable terrain, elevated contact points to land and float in powder, and Flat Kick tip and tail arcs for faster, more aggressive transitions.
Construction

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.
HOLYSHEET™ TRI/BI + MAGIC BEAN™ RESIN
HOLYSHEET™ Fiberglass configuration features fiber weaves with a high tensile strength and low modulus of elasticity. With a higher roving count in the same weight of glass, you can have a stronger and more responsive board without adding extra weight.
HOVER CORE™
An energetic premium core that is ultralight and strong with excellent dampening properties
AMPLITEX™ V-TECH AMPLIFIER
Amplitex™ is a next-generation natural flax fiber woven with carbon strands that is featured in our high-end snowboard constructions. This fusion tape brings the best of two worlds; the reactive energy of carbon and the lightweight and dampening aspects of flax.
