The Icon. One of the most famous snowboards of all time.
The Defenders of Awesome series has a big reputation, and these boards back it up. A winner of the most coveted design award in snowboarding for an unprecedented seven years in a row, this model became our #1 selling snowboard and one of the most sought-after snowboards in the world. The D.O.A. features a next-generation hybrid camber design that delivers the pop and response of a cambered board with the predictability of reverse camber and is now available in an extended range of wide sizes.
The P2 Superlight Core™ reduces weight while providing high-impact resistance and maximum pop. With additional construction technology like Fortress™ Aramid Bound Sidewalls and a high-speed Quantum Drive™ base advancing these boards beyond their modest retail price, the D.O.A. series stands proud as the ultimate go-anywhere, do-anything freestyle deck.

I tried DOA and it's really cool because you can do many things with it, going fast, turning, and even doing tricks. I used it with Union Ultra bindings, and it was simple to use and felt nice. You can change up how you attach your boots and still have fun. This snowboard looks modern and attractive. There are different... Read more

I found myself on the capita DOA un the 21/22 season, and here are some of my take away from the board! one thing I noticed immediately was the playfulness of the board, given its stiffer to medium flex date, with the rOcker in the nose and take it really gives this board some life when trying butters, given the...

This board was a blast. This board is built for those high level beginner riders and up looking to explore the mountain and ride a little bit of everything! This board can feel right at home in the park all day or spend its time hitting high speeds and dodging trees. It's a versatile board with a hybrid camber profile... Read more
Ideal for
- Best for the all mountain rider who wants to ride a little of everything.
- This board is best for the rider who want a good flexing, stable feeling board.
- Best for non stop adventures all over the mountain. Park to powder this board can do a little of everything.
Not ideal for
- Not the best board in deep powder.
- True twin shape so not quite as much versatility that would be seen in other all mountain boards.
- Mellow mid flex board so not the most stable board at high charging speeds.

All Purpose, All fFun!
Originally posted at capitasnowboarding.com on Jan 27, 2024Such a fun board that can go anywhere.
Loads of pop, with a very lively feel.
Easy to turn. It holds a good edge, yet can still be pressed without too much effort.
Defender of the Awesome for life.

5 /5
Mad respect for Chris who went the extra mile to find me the perfect fit. Every recommendation was followed up with a thorough comparison of all my options and what made them stand out from each other. He even recorded videos, dude. Really, what more could you ask for. And still he’s not the type to try to convince you that somethings great. He just offers up all the facts to let you sit back and feel things out for yourself. Super friendly, reassuring, and will never leave you hanging. I came back to Chris for new recommendations after ghosting him for an entire season and it felt like picking up where you left off with an old friend. Super knowledgeable about the sport and how certain brands will cater to your riding style. Really appreciated that he didn’t recommend the same style of board over and over from different brands. Since he tossed up boards that had a lot of differing features he helped me find something I hadn’t considered before and taught me so much about snowboarding along the way. So if you’re looking for something that will set you apart from the rest, Chris has your back. I ended up going with his top choice for me and I couldn’t be more jacked. Will definitely be coming back for advice down the line, and can’t wait to let him know how much his pick shreds this winter. Cheers mate!

I’m so busy fighting fire and just haven’t had the time to really get into the details on the zillions of snowboards available. I did have time to share what I needed with Tyler and he was quickly responding with some recommendations. He seemed pretty dialed with his reasoning and helped finalize my choice. So less stressful having the help!

He help me find what gear was right for me and matched the price of all my gear. This has definitely been the best customer experience I have ever received. Bro gave a great deal on some sick gear. I really excited to try my new gear and I am very happy with the whole experience. Give this man a raise.

I knew I wanted skiing gear for the season, but didn’t know anything about the ski gear. Leo walked me through some great options and explained the differences. I really appreciate that he found sales items. On an aesthetic level he made sure things looked like they went together instead of just a random assortment of colors.

Leif was very patient with my picky nature for choosing my first board. He kept sending me really great options! His feedback for the boards were really insightful and the picks for my boots and bindings were perfect! This was a really fun and unique experience. Highly recommend to my friends that I’ll be riding with!

I was looking to purchase a new setup (snowboard, boots, bindings, and googles) for the upcoming season. Everything I have is very worn out. The last time I purchased a new setup was ten years ago, and I did not know where to start. So, I went through the "find your snowboard" quiz and was matched with Mike. From there we were able to really dial in my setup. I can't wait to try it out! Thank you Mike!

I'm getting back into snowboarding after a lonnngg hiatus and Leif knew exactly what I needed for both my skill level and the exact mountain I will be spending time at this winter. I had a pretty small budget considering the cost of gear and he found me a board and bindings way under budget. I was thrilled. I was also delighted that I got a personalized video describing my options. Highly recommended!

Ryan was very helpful, friendly and knowledgeable. I can in knowing nothing about snowboards and I gave him a weird task of trying to find a board that would work for both me and my brother at different weights. I appreciate how happy he was to help and how he kept checking in on me wanting to help.
