Meet the Capita SPace Metal Fantasy
The Capita SPace Metal Fantasy has an impressive track record with five consecutive Transworld Good Wood Awards to its name. It is widely recognized as one of the best parkboards for women on the market. However, to be fair, the label "parkboard" seriously detracts from its potential.
While we present this as a parkboard for classification purposes, the truth is that it is much more than that. The SPace Metal Fantasy is not only suitable for the better arts and crafts in the park, but also offers great fun when carving turns on the slopes and floats exceptionally well on powder. This extremely forgiving inverted camber shape provides an enjoyable experience for novice to intermediate riders looking to accelerate their learning curve and take their skills to the next level on a variety of terrain. The S.M.F. serves as a springboard for progression and can excel in any riding-environment without having to go deep into the pocket.
Park V2 Flatbase Profile.
As for the camber profile, the SPace Metal Fantasy has the Park V2 camber. This means the board features a double inverted camber Flat Kick freestyle shape. A zero camber section throughout the deployment area provides a stable skate--like feel, while raised contact points provide an excellent turning radius and effortless float in powder.
In short, the Capita SPace Metal Fantasy is an exceptionally versatile snowboard. Whether you want to sharpen your skills in the park, enjoy going down the slopes at high speed, or enjoy deep powder, this board guarantees a phenomenal experience. An investment in the SPace Metal Fantasy is an investment in your progression and fun on the mountain.

Technical SPecifications
CAPiTA snowboards are handmade in Austria with self-generated clean energy at The MotherShip™.
The SUPERDRIVE™ base material belongs to the category of sintered plates that offer the advantages of both sintered and extruded substrates. These bases have the properties and manufacturing techniques of extruded base material, but the higher pressure and temperature increases surface hardness to levels close to most sintered bases. This increases the durability and strength of the surface, creating a base that is more durable during jibbing and tearing on the mountain, while the board requires little maintenance and has a worry-free lifespan

The CAPiTA MotherShip™ is the world's newest, most technologically advanced snowboard production facility - a marvel of clean energy production. We generate energy for the CAPiTA production processes through an on-site hydro-active NH3 thermal energy system, combined with our recently expanded solar panels.
SPECIAL BLEND is an environmentally friendly we lay-up process that uses our MAGIC BEAN™ resin component that uses less energy and yields higher technical properties. This bonding process improves the working environment in the plant because it does not contain the same aggressive chemical properties used in resins in other plants around the world.
These versatile boards feature a Flat Kick freestyle shape with double reverse camber. A zero camber section throughout the insert provides a stable skate feel, while the raised contact points turn in a snap and float seamlessly in powder.
