The Curated Take

By the Expert Community

If you are an int or adv rider who wants a board in the quiver that excels at everything? The DOA is right for you! With rocker on the tip and tail and camber between the feet, The Capita DOA is the perfect blend of pop and float. In the parking excels on rails and jumps keeping it playful under foot while still allowing you to feel aggressive ripping carves down the groomers. If they snow is deep set the bindings back a little and you will float with easy.

Ideal for
  • All mountain ripper (literally)
  • Excels in the park
  • Poppy and playful
Not ideal for
  • Camber board- not as forgiving for new riders
  • Not amazing at high speeds- mid to soft flex

The CAPiTA Defenders of Awesome Snowboard is a  highly decorated, do-it-all resort board that is perfect for the rider who wants a board that excels in the park but isn't afraid of any terrain. This camber-shaped board is primarily a freestyle deck but it provides the rider with an amount of stability that allows the rider to take on anything at the resorts. The design also includes an early rise in the tip and tail which lets the board perform better in fresh than almost every other park-oriented deck. This is for the rider who wants to push their limits inside and outside the park and experience the performance of one of the best boards on the market all at a great price point.

Key Features:

  • Superlight Core – The CAPiTA P2 core is made with a combination of materials that allow the board to be lightweight while also containing extreme amounts of pop.
  • Carbon Fiber Boosters – This board has two carbon fiber strips running through the core which increase the responsiveness of the deck and contribute to its extraordinary power.
  • Aramid Bound Sidewalls – These heavy-duty sidewalls provide durability and dampen chatter to create a more stable ride.

This boards is great for someone who is looking for a playful, versatile board that does great in the park and translates that to the way it rides all mountain, it’s super capable and very fun to ride. It‘s great at taking side hits and buttering around, while also doing well in powder and trees, though I did find it... Read more

The Capita DOA wins Snowboarder Mag Good Wood awards every year for good reason. You can take this all mountain/resort crusher anywhere and it will excel. The medium flex makes the deck stiff enough to power through chop and groomers at high speeds but soft enough to jib in the park. The rocker/camber/rocker profile gives the board forgiveness and pop... Read more

Who is this product good for?

The CAPiTA DOA is a freestyle riders dream snowboard built with a true twin shape and aggressive camber underfoot. The Resort V1 profile provides positive camber between the feet to provide easy turn initiation but incredible pop when launching off jumps. The radial sidecut and steel edges enhance the contact points to provide greater edge hold in icy conditions, this is ideal for park riders who need to stop on a dime after landing.

5 /5
I cannot say enough wonderful things about Kyle and my experience with him on Curated. I’m a pretty hard headed individual and I went into the curation wanting a very specific GNU board. Kyle talked me off that ledge (was far outside my budget) and steered me in the direction of something similar that fit my budget a lot better. I’m stoked about my purchase and am so excited to get out on the slopes! Kyle was knowledgeable without being arrogant, which is extremely hard to find in the skiing industry. I don’t like to feel pressured into purchasing something without doing my research, and there was no point during our multiple day conversation that he made me feel pressured or rushed. He was patient, kind, and friendly in a way that felt above and beyond for the given task. If my rave review doesn’t say enough, Kyle seems like a gem of a human. Wishing him and his family all the best!

Super knowledgeable, great experience, tons of options, no pressure… Leo gets it!
5 /5
Skied a fair bit as a kid in the Northeast, then switched to snowboarding when I moved out west 15 years ago, and just getting back into skiing somewhat seriously as my kids are pretty self-sufficient and competent on most runs these days. We usually rent, but after skiing about 20 days last year, I decided that buying new boots at a minimum was an absolute must. Some days were pure torture… But, I had no idea where to start and was instantly overwhelmed beginning my search on my own. Enter Leo and Curated. Leo took the time to understand my situation, my skill level, my goals, my preferences, etc. In short order, after I sent back my boot measurements, I received a personalized video with several different options and tons of rationale for my expanded search for skis, bindings, and poles as well. I felt very comfortable that I had a good set of options to choose from for each piece of equipment - with an accompanying wealth of Leo’s deep knowledge and experience to consider as I pondered this large, potential purchase. I decided to hold off at that point, and Leo made sure I knew he was available to text or chat live as needed - he is super responsive. No pressure at all. I came back to it later the next day, chatted a bit back and forth with Leo, and felt really confident about making the purchase. That’s really saying something given how little I knew about modern ski gear just a night or two earlier. I highly recommend Leo and will be reaching out to him directly for any future purchases. I won’t hesitate to direct friends and family to him either, and have a hunch my wife will be looking for his help right around the time my new gear hits our doorstep. Thanks, Leo!

Ryan is very knowledgeable about the tech of snowboards and the areas I frequently snowboard at. He helped me understand the fundamentals about snowboards which helped me in my own independent research. He is super patient and responsive. Additionally, he worked with my budget and snowboarding wants/needs.

I have been wanting to get my own gear since I can remember, having borrowed stuff from my dad and buddies as long as I can remember. However, I waited so long because although I have been boarding for a while, I didn’t know any of the terminology or what brands were good, etc. Kim made this process SO easy, and I am more than confident I will like my gear! 10/10 recommend and if I need to get more stuff I know where I am going

Vincent done did it again! Had a friend refer me and boy was it the best decision ever. Vincent was very knowledgeable and definitely catered to my needs. He didn’t send the most expensive bindings and hoped for the best. I told what I was looking for and delivered. Not one or two options but many options. I definitely recommend him as your expert!

I had insomnia that night and found the Curated for the first time. I was curious about contacting an expert who turned out to be Andrew at 4 AM PST. I expected to get an answer a few hours later since it was in the middle of the night. I turned off my computer and went into bed he responded a few minutes later. Hopefully, I didn't wake him up, or maybe he's on EST time but either way, he's on his game.
