The Good Ride reviews one of the longest running and best selling pro models in the CAPiTA line - the Kazu Kokubo Pro.

Fast and powerful, this is the switchblade of powder boards. The redesigned Kazu Kokubo Pro comes in a compact chassis with a powder nose and a slightly tapered tail, making this award-winning series quick and maneuverable. This versatility is perfect for side-country powder mornings that transition to resort riding after you’ve tracked your secret stash. And, while it’s a lofty goal, this board is your first step towards trying to emulate Kazu’s legendary riding style.
Quick and maneuverable, the Kazu Pro’s lightweight power and pop comes from its Panda Hover Core™, CarbonFlax™ Amplifiers and a HolySheet™ Tri/Bi fiberglass configuration. Upgraded for 2026, the Kazu Kokubo Pro is now powered by a tougher Hyper-Drive™ ADV XT base with factory-direct Moonshot Omni-Tune™.
The RESORT V3 Profile 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 traditional tip and tail arcs for smoother transitions.

Construction


SKINLESS™ CORE ASH WOODGRAIN TOPSHEET
Specially treated pure wood veneer topsheet with a unique tactile feel that is 220gm lighter than the standard process.

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.

PANDA HOVER CORE™
Ultra lightweight core enhanced with Bamboo Power Rods™ for maximum power and response.

4 x 25mm CARBONFLAX™ AMPLIFIER
CARBONFLAX™ 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. The two fibers are highly compatible since they have similar properties regarding thermal expansion and failure strain, creating a uniformly flexing reinforcement that's light, snappy and durable all in one.

HYPERDRIVE™ ADV XT BASE
Custom formulated and exclusive to The MotherShip, our engineers have worked tirelessly with the world's leading polyethylene running base supplier to create HYPERDRIVE™. With exceptional anti-friction properties due to high molecular mass and specialized processing aids, this sintered material has a proprietary composition and is beyond fast. Our loyal fans charge hard, and we have integrated the fastest, meanest base available. We have increased the thickness of our XT bases for enhanced durability.

MOONSHOT OMNI-TUNE™
The MOONSHOT OMNI-TUNE™ is an aftermarket high-performance race-base structure that wicks water from your base at a 45-degree angle making these boards fast as f*#k to the lift line or to the finish line.
