CAPiTA Defenders Of Awesome 161W 2023 Snowboard

THE ULTIMATE ''GO ANYWHERE - DO ANYTHING'' FREESTYLE BOARD

The Defenders Of Awesome has won a Transworld Good Wood Award every year since its launch. Truly unbeaten, the DOA is one of the best all-mountain freestyle boards around. The DOA comes with a hybrid camber profile that combines the pop and precision of a classic camber board with the compliance of a rocker board. Updated tech features like the Dual Blaster V2™ core and a high-speed Quantum Drive™ base, provide an extremely balanced ride on any terrain.

The Defenders Of Awesome is handmade in Austria in the first snowboard production facility powered by 100 % clean energy. It is a 7-time Good Wood Award winner.

Riding style
This board is just right for experienced all-mountain junkies. The DOA offers a reactive ride with plenty of flexibility for piste, park and backcountry.

Shape
The True Twin shape is perfectly symmetrical for a balanced ride that's equally versatile when ridden forward or switch. ​

Profile
The Resort V1 profile comes with traditional camber between the bindings and is flat behind the bindings, with a subtle rocker in nose and tail. This profile gives you a stable ride, but is still more playful and forgiving than a classic camber profile.

​Flex
The medium flex is ideal for the all-mountain design of this board. Hard enough for powerful turns but still soft enough for a playful ride.

Construction
In the new Dual Blaster V2 Core™, the ash has been replaced with paulownia to add even less weight to the board. This core is powerful, built for durability and control. Two carbon strips along the wooden core increase performance and response while the board remains extremely light. Capita Fortress™ Kevlar Sidewall Protection provides a vibration-free ride and cushioning. Harder, stronger, faster, the sintered Quantum Drive™ base creates a unique balance of speed and stability.
