Capita Aeronaut by Longo

Set the controls for the heart of the fun: the Starship Sidehit is all gassed up and ready to flow! The CAPiTA Aeronaut Snowboard is your ticket to riding like the Rocket Man, Arthur Longo. This is the resort maximizer, the gap discoverer, the euphoria explorer. Its made to accelerate across the flats, from one hidden popper to another, creating loft whether it’s hardpacked or soft. A semi-throwback directional board with traditional camber and a progressive sidecut, the Aeronaut breaks out of the ho-hum numb with speed and pop, as you assert full control over the resort. Flash mob in the statue garden, it’s time to make that corduroy smoke.

Product Details

Rocker Type

Alpine V3 – The Alpine V3 profile has a deeper traditional camber that zeroes out before the end of the sidecut. The small zero camber sections provide a more controlled ride while retaining the response and power of a throwback cambered board.

Flex

Directional Flex

Flex Rating – 6 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)

Shape

Directional Shape

Progressive Sidecut – This sidecut consists of two or more radii blended together to accommodate the three stages of a turn. It provides easy turn initiation while offering greater control throughout the turn and maximum power while exiting.

Core

Panda Hover Core – This ultra lightweight core is made from paulownia and poplar wood, and is enhanced with bamboo Power Rods™ for maximum power and response.

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 – 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.

Amplitex™ V-Tech Amplifier – Amplitex™ is a next-generation natural flax fiber woven with carbon strands that is featured in 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.

Sidewalls

Full ABS1000 Sidewalls

Base

Hyperdrive™ ADV – Custom formulated and exclusive to The Mothership, CAPiTA engineers have worked 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. For loyal and hard charging fans, CAPiTA have integrated the fastest, meanest base available.

Edges

360˚ HRC48 Steel Edges

Graphics

Multitech™ Level 4 DeepSpace™ PAM16000 Silkscreen – The DeepSpace™ Design Theory takes advantage of the thickness of a transparent topsheet. Strategically layering ink on multiple levels from the top and the bottom imbues graphics with a sense of life through depth.
