Capita Navigator Snowboard 2022
The Navigator is the powder snowboard for the brave, the rider with nerves of steel and an unwavering determination to make the most of what mother nature can throw from the heavens. You know what they say, there's no friends on a powder day, and to an extent that's true, but on a powder day The Navigator will be your best friend, your vessel, your compass, and your ticket to the ride of a lifetime. Featuring a parabolic sidecut that carves hard and flows into a sinking tapered tail, aided by a floaty rockered nose, The Navigator will transform the ache of a powder day into an effortless sense of fulfilment and wonder. For 2021 this board receives a camber upgrade as well as a modified tip and tail shape for a more classic and refined approach, giving you a powder shape that's a little more familiar but no less thrilling.
Profile
- Alpine V1 Profile: The ALPINE V1 Profile design features mid-body camber with a flat tail and a reverse cambered nose. This allows for tons of pop and stability on hard pack while increasing float and landing power, improving the rider’s performance in deep snow. The camber runs longer in the tail—providing extra power for the ascent or for larger riders drawn to a dedicated wide series.
Flex
- 5.5/10
- Directional Flex
Shape
- Directional Shape
- Parabolic Sidecut: A PARABOLIC sidecut consists of a mirror-symmetrical curve. In snowboard terms, this design creates a board with a deeper sidecut and a quicker turning point in the center compared to radial arcs.
Core
- FSC Certified Dual Core™: The FSC® CERTIFIED DUAL CORE™ was built to achieve the consistent, dependable feel required from riders looking to take their skills to the next level. This lightweight core has zero irregularities and a consistent, uniform flex, combining lightweight Poplar with Beech for increased power and durability.
Laminates

- Special Blend Fiberglass: This configuration uses an optimum blend of 626g/m2 Biaxial fiberglass laminated in conjunction with structural additives to customize performance objectives.
- 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.
