The 2024 Capita Kazu Kokubo Pro is a versatile all-mountain board, designed for the backcountry. Unlike the traditional long and wide powder boards, the Kazu features a compact design for quick and agile handling, making it an enjoyable ride in majority of conditions. Refined by Kazu's extensive backcountry experience in Japan, this board boasts a unique shape and construction, featuring a setback, directional shape, powerful, lightweight Panda Hover Core, and newly upgraded base material and structure, so you can prepare yourself for powerful turns, solid stability, and ultimate control. If you've witnessed Kazu's riding style, you know he embodies the spirit of snowboarding. Take the Kazu Pro to Japan for a truly immersive and spiritual experience with the board, mountain, and soul of snowboarding.
Rider Type: All Mountain and Powder
Camber Type: Alpine V2 Profile
The Alpine V2 Profile features lowered camber through the board with a reverse camber nose, which maintains the aggressive response and power of camber while providing maximum float and stability in powder. The camber runs deep into the tail on the Kazu which keeps the back of the board stable and powerful in all conditions.
Flex: 6.5/10 (Mid)
Stiff enough to plow through the powder and hold a strong edge, but soft enough to be forgiving when you need it.
Shape: Directional
This board is engineered for deep powder and all mountain versatility, featuring a radial sidecut complemented by a tapered tail. This narrower tail section naturally sinks in powder while the wide nose floats above the surface, giving you smooth flowing turns and an easy, surfy, floaty ride in powder.
Radical Taper
This board features a radial sidecut paired with a tapered tail. This narrower tail section sinks in powder while the wide nose floats above the snow, resulting in less work, more fun, and smooth arcing turns.
Core: Panda Hover Core
The Panda Hover Core was engineered with a focus on all-terrain technical freestyle riding. Featuring the same lightweight, poppy, smooth Poplar and Paulowia wood as Capita's Superlight P2 Core enhanced with inlaid bamboo power rods, this high-density core is strong enough to handle any kind of terrain while staying super light.
Amplitex V-Tech Amplifier - Amplitex is a natural Flax fibre woven with carbon strands, giving you the reactive energy of carbon with the lightweight dampening properties of Flax. These two fibres are placed in 4 x 25mm strips, working in unison to reinforce the board while flexing uniformly and remaining light, durable, and extra snappy.
HolySheet Fibreglass + Magic Bean Resin - HolySheet glass has a higher glass to weight ratio than normal fibreglass, giving you more stiffness with lower weight than a traditional layup. This is impregnated with a high performance, environmentally responsible, plant based resin that provides a powerful and dynamic ride that's better for the planet.
Base: Hyperdrive Adv Base
This custom formulated base uses exceptional anti-friction properties due to high molecular mass and specialised processing aids to make a sintered material that is beyond fast and is one of the fastest, meanest and best bases available.
Additional Features:
Skinless Core Ash Woodgrain Topsheet - This board has a specially treated pure wood veneer topsheet with a unique tactile feel that is 220gm light than a standard topsheet.
Moonshot Omni-Tune - Capita have taken it a step further and given this base a stone grind structure which helps it glide over snow with minimal resistance and is optimised for regular and switch riding.
