Capita Charlie Slasher Flat Kick Pow board. This thing is for the best times of your life. It’s a flat kick board. Meaning that it’s basically flat in between the bindings and throughout the tail. It actually has a really unique shape to it. It’s pretty much flat from here to here. Has a normal shaped tail. The nose however, is very interesting. It rocks up like a normal reverse camber board and then continues to rock up even harder. That’s called flat kick or that’s what Capita likes to call Flat Kick. It basically has two different angles of reverse camber on that nose to keep your board from sinking when you’re riding ten feet of fresh.
The Capita Charlie Slasher FK Snowboard shape has a directional shape. It’s a little bit wider in the nose and gradually tapers down to a little bit narrower on the tail. It has a progressive side coat radius. Meaning that it’s kind of like an egg shape. So it’s easy to get into turns and then aggressive getting out of turns.
The stance is set back one inch. The core is pretty unique as well. It’s from reforested forests. The core is 100% reforested certified so the trees that are in this have been replanted in places where trees were cut down before. The glass is called Form 6 glass which means it’s a Bilax fiberglass. Meaning there’s two directions of fiberglass on the top, two directions of fiberglass on the bottom when they sandwiched the core. And the base is made out of high transparent extruded base.
You can see the graphic. It definitely pops. It has a flex of about a six, and one of my favorite things, besides everything, beside the cool looking graphic, is the carbon fiber beams that it has in the nose. There’s two different carbon fiber beams that run to about here in the nose. So when you’re running through some choppy stuff, because of the flat kick technology, it will kind of damper the vibrations when you’re going 6000 miles an hour down the hill.
