2027 CAPiTA Defenders of Awesome (DOA) Snowboard | The Undisputed King of All-Mountain Freestyle

The 2027 CAPiTA Defenders of Awesome (DOA) continues its legacy as the most decorated snowboard in history, and for good reason. Year after year, it remains the go-to choice for riders who demand a deck that can destroy the park, rip high-speed carves on the groomers, and handle everything in between. The DOA delivers a legendary "perfect" feel — a blend of high-end pop, stability, and predictability that gives you the confidence to send it larger than ever. If you're looking for the ultimate all-mountain freestyle weapon that lives up to the massive hype, the DOA is ready to defend its title on your local hill.

Key Technical Features

• Resort V1 Profile: This game-changing camber profile offers the best of all worlds. With traditional camber between the inserts for elite edge hold, flat camber underfoot for stability, and a small rocker section in the tips for a catch-free ride, it's designed to dominate the entire resort.

• Flex 5.5/10 (The Perfect Mid-Flex): Sitting right in the sweet spot, the DOA's flex is stiff enough to provide high-speed response and stability on landings, yet playful enough to press rails and butter through the flats.

• Hybrid HolySheet™ Bi-Ax/Tri-Ax Fiberglass: This high-tensile fiberglass weave is bonded with Magic Bean™ Resin, providing a higher glass-to-weight ratio. This results in a board that is incredibly strong and responsive without feeling heavy or cumbersome underfoot.

• Carbon Fiber Boosters: Dual carbon strips run the length of the core to amplify your pop and energy return. These boosters give you that signature DOA "snap," making it easier to clear knuckles and boost out of side-hits.

• Fortress™ Kevlar Bound Sidewalls: Heavy-duty protection where you need it most. These sidewalls are bonded with a Kevlar wrap to ensure your board can withstand the high-impact abuse of rails, boxes, and the occasional hidden rock.

• Superdrive™ ADV Base: This "sinter-pressed" base material is the perfect hybrid — offering the high speeds and drive of a sintered base with the low-maintenance durability of an extruded base.

• P2 Superlight Core™: An extremely lightweight and versatile core built for high impact resistance and maximum rebound. It's designed to take a beating while keeping the board's overall weight at an absolute minimum.

Why You'll Love It

The 2027 CAPiTA DOA is built for the intermediate to advanced rider who wants one board that truly does not have a weakness. Its True Twin shape and versatile profile make it just as capable of winning a slopestyle event as it is cruising with the crew at Perisher or Buller. It's consistent, powerful, and arguably the most reliable board ever made. If you want a deck that will progress your riding across the whole mountain, the Defenders of Awesome is the only choice.
