- We finally got a great day to test the Capita Mega Death in powder. This is one killer snowboard, and in this video we take it out on a big pow day on Aspen Mountain and Highlands Bowl to put it to the full test.

I picked up the ‘25 mega death in 57W for a li’l extra float and taper; glad to see this video supports my instincts! Way to shred!
Hell yeah dude, you’re gonna love it!
ultimate kudos for the Ween sticker! I am now going to put one on my board.
Oh yaaa, gotta rep it! www.etsy.com/listing/812959918/boognish-vinyl-sticker-decal-decalwindow?ref=yr_purchases
That drop in front of that dude straight into the bowl was wild 😂
Dude sat down right in my way so had to ollie over him. He didn't even notice haha
Was so sickkkk
Thanks for the pow review on the mega death finally !! Can’t wait to see more !🤙🏾
Yeah dawgie! We’re here to bring ya more
Dude, epic POW no words can describe the feeling!
That’s what we live by! One of the top days of the season here
Totally agree, it’s a sick board that won’t disappoint!!!
You know what's up! 🙌
Love the review and footage
Thanks Mike!
Love to get your insight on the next board I’m trying to figure out. Looking at capital DOA, Salomon huck knife, or the new forum production 3 park board. I want something can ride the whole resort with but still love to hit smaller park features.
Those are all great boards and you can't really go wrong with any of those cause they're all so similar. I've really been liking the Spring Break Resort Twin lately for riding like that. If you want to talk about it further, you can schedule a call with me here: www.knowitalls.com/p/shane-serrano-snow
Last run was sick dude🤯
Ooooh yeah, first blue bird pow run down the middle of the bowl this year!
Got the new Mega Death and can also say it’s the best snowboard I’ve ever ridden! Such a sick ass board! Goliath+, Evil Twin+, Orca and the Mega Death now complete my quiver… until I buy more 😂😂
Dope dude, that's a sick ass quiver!
I think I saw on another video you paired the board with Union Atlas Pro bindings? I have this setup and it’s like they were made for each other. I don’t ever want to stop riding it.
Yeah sick. Once I put those bindings on this board they never came off, they’re perfect for each other
Love this review. Looking to get one. My favorite board was the Huck knife pro I rode in 155. Im 5’8 175 and torn between a 156 and 157w. Any recommendations?
Rode a 158 super doa last week and it felt too long.
If the Super DOA felt too long I'd suggest the 156
might be a next year purchase! what mounts are you using to get the pov shots with the dji?
Put it on the wish list! I was using the regular helmet mount with the DJI
Love the review! What is the main differences between the mega Merc and the mega death? Or maybe between the super doa, since that are all the premium board from Capita’s line.
Mega Death is going to have a wider nose, be more directional, and ride a little better freeriding than the Mega Merc. Stay tuned for a comparison video on all the top Capita boards dropping next Fall
I have one and it's a board that can do it all. And it's as good as it gets.
Agreed, as good as it gets!
Love this video, how would you compare to the aeronaut, is megadeath still poppy than aeronaut?
Yeah Mega Death is still poppier than the Aeronaut. I'd say the Mega Death rides/floats better in powder with its wider waist width and more shovel nose
I have one. Best board I’ve ever ridden. It’s incredibly stable, fast, predictable, it butters, it pops, and did I say it’s fast? Cuz it’s fast AF.
I just spent first three days on mine, what can I say? I'm selling everything else I have... This one is absolutely SICK!!!
nice vid!! how much set back were u on may i ask?
None, I just set it centered compared to the reference points
Sick Dude!! 🔥 Quick question: I'm planning a trip to Niseko, do you think my Aeronaut is gonna perform well in deep Pow, or should I get myself a more powder specific board for that?
You may have more fun/an easier time managing the deep snow with a more pow specific board. I rode the Mega Death there and I had a friend on the Capita Navigator which are both good options. But that being said, Arthur Longo has been ripping the Aeronaut in Japan, so you could just rock it
@@SearchofSnowboarding Aight, thanks for the advice 🤙🏽
I might just try it and expand my quiver with a powder board if needed. I guess I there'll be stores in Niseko
@@LVCKYofficial Yup, plenty of shops in Niseko that carry boards meant for their deep snow. Have a sick trip!
@@SearchofSnowboardingthanks bro 🤙🏽 still a few months to go but I‘m super stoked
Epic!
Yeew, that’s how we deww!
I want to get into snowboarding but don’t have money, what is the best cheap board for a 5’2” 115 pound 16 year old guy?
I was thinking about getting the Burton custom smalls because I can get it in 145cm for $275
Yeah that could be a good way to go with the Custom Smalls. You might even be able to find a used one in the size you need for a better price
Rent your gear for the first couple of times going so you know you like it. Just make sure to wear water proof pants and jacket on top of your clothes when you go. I wore jeans me first time and regret it to this day
I was 15 when I started and live in nyc. I only spent $125 on gear bus ticket and lift ticket for 8 hours.
@@Custodianruu I have been snowboarding like 5 times and I love it so I might try to get a snowboard over summer when they are cheaper.
130lbs , US7 , should I go for the 156cm as it is the shortest I can get? or I should go for another model ?
If you consider yourself an aggressive/advanced rider you could give it a go, other wise I would check out a different board
I'm only intermediate but I want this board so bad 🙃
This board will help you level up for sure
How did it compare to the mega merc
Much better in powder because of the directionality of it and the slightly wider nose
@@SearchofSnowboarding Do you think you would by the mega death over the mega merc?
Torn between a 59 and 62. 185lb 10.5 boot
Maybe go 159, the 162 could feel like too much board
That's what I'm leaning. I have a 57 shadowban for more freestyle riding and wanted a souped up version. I have too many boards but this seems like the exception when adding another to the quiver. Found someone selling a sealed 59 on Craigslist, hoping I can barter them down haha.
Glad Aspen got some amazing pow. Abasin and Eldora got cement. @@SearchofSnowboarding
It looks like an awesome board, I just find the wide sizes really strange for me… 161W is a bit too small and 165W is too long 🥲
I think you can take 165W because it's around 200-300 grams lighter then other boards with a same length , so it will be more manageable and feels more like 161W.
I have also BSOD and it's 200 heavier then Megadeath in a same length.
That’s a good point
Why do you think the 161W is too small?
