Behold! The consummate anytime, any-place, all-terrain, snow-slaying device; The 2025 MEGA MERC. Inspired by the on-slope versatility of the Mercury series, the MEGA MERC mimics its proven technical design lines while packing a powerful punch of serious construction upgrades.
Designed for power when you want it, and float when you need it, the MEGA MERC is the ultimate, ultra-premium, shred-anything snowboard you can trust to handle it all. Ultralight and ultra-versatile, the Mega Merc harnesses its 3D Thermopolymer Starship Core™ with an all-new Hybrid Holy-Sheet™ Tri/Tri MEGACARBON™ configuration and MEGADRIVE™ XT base for unparalleled all-mountain performance.
Features
- Resort V2 Profile – This revolutionary all-terrain shape provides the best of both worlds. It has a raised camber platform through the inserts to retain high-speed edge hold through variable terrain, elevated contact points to land and float in powder, and Flat Kick tip and tail arcs for faster, more aggressive transitions.
- FSC® Certified 3D Thermopolymer Starship Core™ – Utilizing an advanced electronic sorting system allows Capita to select mega-premium, reforestation certified, Poplar graded by weight and grain consistency. Comparable to Paulownia in strength to weight ratio, this core retains the poppiness of Poplar, and then achieves a signature feel by adding bonded post-consumer recycled Thermopolymer channels to form an advanced hybrid core. This mega-premium core will blast you into space and beyond.
- Megacarbon™ Array – Mega-wide carbon tape on both top and bottom of the woodcore = four times the power and response of previous carbon additives.
- Hybrid Holysheet™ Tri/Tri 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. At the highest level, Triaxial fiberglass is placed on both the top and bottom of the core providing maximum strength, durability and performance, while many of our most sought after models feature Triaxial fiberglass on top of the core and Biaxial fiberglass beneath, creating a perfectly blended ride while increasing strength and durability. Combine one of these three layups with the MAGIC BEAN™ resin and one of the many additives we have available, and you get an incredibly high performing board tailored to meet your style of riding.
- 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.
- Megadrive™ XT Base – Striving to kit out the MEGA line-up with the most advanced and premium components, the all new Megadrive™ base is as fast as science can make it. This is a pure race base composed of HMW polyethylene modified with high carbon content and special fluoro additives for lightspeed gliding in a wide range of conditions. This XT version features increased thickness for enhanced durability.
- Moonshot Omni-Tune™ – Aftermarket performance stone grind structure straight from The Mothership, optimized for regular and switch riding.
- Megalite Skin™ Topsheet – Super thin yet durable matte lamina for 60% weight reduction over Capita's regular topsheets.
- PLT™ Topsheet Technology – PLT™ technology is exclusive to CAPiTA MFG and magically bonds the topsheet to an already pressed snowboard.
