CAMBER
RESORT V2 DIRECTIONAL PROFILE: This revolutionary all-terrain shape provides the best of both worlds. It has a raised camber platform through the inserts to retain high-speed edge hold through variable terrain, elevated contact points to land and float in powder, and Flat Kick tip and tail arcs for faster, more aggressive transitions.
SHAPE
CAPiTA's Resort V2 Directional + Flat Kick Tech is a groundbreaking all-terrain shape offers the perfect balance of performance and versatility. A raised camber platform through the inserts ensures reliable edge hold at high speeds on variable terrain, while elevated contact points enhance float and stability in powder. Flat Kick tip and tail arcs enable quicker, more aggressive transitions for a dynamic ride.
