Capita Dark Horse 158W 2027 – All Mountain & Park Snowboard

Description

The Capita Dark Horse is a freestyle-focused snowboard built for riders who live on park jumps, side hits, and creative line-finding across the whole mountain. Available in a wide 158W size, it sits at the crossroads of accessible pricing and legitimate performance — a rare combination that's made it a recurring favourite on the Capita team roster.

Built around a true twin shape with a radial sidecut, the Dark Horse rides identically in both directions, making switch riding effortless. It sits on a Park V1 camber profile for reliable pop and edge hold, paired with a medium-aggressive flex of 6 out of 10. Under the topsheet, a Dual Core construction handles the energy transfer, amplified by two 30 mm Carbon Aramid Boosters that sharpen response and board feel without adding unnecessary weight. The base is a Superdrive™ base, and the glass package uses Holysheet™ Tri/Bi layering with Magic Bean™ Resin for a lively, snappy ride.

Who it's for

This board is dialed in for intermediate to advanced freestyle riders who spend most of their day in the park or hunting creative features on the mountain. The true twin shape and Park V1 camber reward progressive riding and technical tricks. If you want a board the pros actually ride, without paying pro-level prices, the Dark Horse delivers exactly that.

FAQ

• Is the 158W a good fit if I have wider feet? Yes — the W designation means this board has a wider waist to reduce toe and heel drag, making it a better match for riders with larger boot sizes.
• Can the Dark Horse handle groomed runs outside the park? Absolutely. Its all-mountain-capable design means it holds its own on groomers and resort terrain, even if the park is where it truly shines.
