Capita Kazu Kokubo Pro Snowboard 2024
Regular price $1,299.99 Sale price $1,169.99 Save $130.00Fast and powerful, the Kazu Kokubo Pro is a super versatile all-mountain board that can take you both in and out of bounds. While many great powder boards are large and surfy, the 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 for all kinds of snow and riding terrain. Refined by Kazu's extensive backcountry experience in Japan, this board boasts a unique shape and construction, featuring a setback, directional shape, powerful, lightweight Panda Hover Core, and newly upgraded base material and structure, so you can prepare yourself for powerful turns, solid stability, and ultimate control.
Rider Type: Freeride / Powder
Shape: Directional
Flex: 5.5/10 Medium
Rocker: Rocker / Camber
Ability Level: Advanced / Expert
CAMBER
Alpine V2 Rocker. The Alpine V2 Profile features lowered camber through the board with a reverse camber nose, which maintains the aggressive response and power of camber while providing maximum float and stability in powder. The camber runs deep into the tail on the Kazu which keeps the back of the board stable and powerful in all conditions.
SHAPE
Directional Shape with Radical Taper. Engineered for deep powder but still versatile around the mountain, this RADIAL sidecut is complemented by a TAPERED TAIL. This narrower tail section naturally sinks in the powder while the wider nose section floats above the snow line. The result is less work and more fun as the board surfs on one smooth continual arc.
CORE
Panda Hover Core: The Panda Hover Core was engineered with a focus on all-terrain technical freestyle riding. Featuring the same lightweight, poppy, smooth Poplar and Paulowia wood as Capita's Superlight P2 Core enhanced with inlaid bamboo power rods, this high-density core is strong enough to handle any kind of terrain while staying super light.=
LAMINATES
Amplitex V-Tech Amplifier - Amplitex is a natural Flax fibre woven with carbon strands, giving you the reactive energy of carbon with the lightweight dampening properties of Flax. These two fibres are placed in 4 x 25mm strips, working in unison to reinforce the board while flexing uniformly and remaining light, durable, and extra snappy.
LAMINATES
Holysheet Fiberglass. The 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. It features Triaxial fiberglass on top of the core and Biaxial fiberglass beneath, creating a perfectly blended ride while increasing strength and durability.
Magic Bean Resin. Developed over a three-year span, this advanced resin system has a bio-content of 60% renewable, agricultural raw material. It is plant based that does not compete with primary food sources and is produced with no waste or greenhouse emissions. In production, it has a low-temperature requirement with a high yield output. This resin system is poppy, powerful, and extremely durable. MAGIC BEAN resin yields much stronger and more rigid qualities allowing a decrease in the wood core thickness. The focus is to save wood core weight by increasing resin performance. This means you get a lighter board while achieving higher energy return.
SIDEWALLS
Full ABS1000 Sidewalls
BASE
Hyperdrive Adv Base: This custom-formulated base uses exceptional anti-friction properties due to high molecular mass and specialized processing aids to make a sintered material that is beyond fast and is one of the fastest, meanest, and best bases available.
Moonshot Omni-Tune - Capita have taken it a step further and given this base a stone grind structure which helps it glide over snow with minimal resistance and is optimised for regular and switch riding.
