Zoid 158 regular, 158 goofy
This year we pushed asymmetry to new levels of
complication and sophistication in search of the
ultimate easy ride. The ergonomically efficient,
“ZOID” with directional asymmetry takes you
forward and backward into the future. The
unique asymmetric trapezoidal geometric
contact, footprint and refined galactic shape
looks unreal! It somehow taps you right back
into the pure joy of riding that the first swallow
tail did. Zoids are Unreal!
Swallowtail Carver 157
Credited by Transworld as the first board
marketed with deep carving sidecuts, Gnu’s
original finless, directional, swallow tail design
has been brought back to life with modern XC2
contours and construction. Our early ski and surf
influenced wide nose, long contact, deep sidecut
hardpack shapes were radically different than
the surf influenced powder only snowboards of
the time. Today this 30 year old Gnu shape that
was met with skepticism in the 80’s looks just
like a modern snowboard. Snowboarding is
unreal, get out there and ride. The future is
NOW.

Cool Bean 4’7” (144) A shift in

Black Snowboard of Death
159 The CAPiTA Black Snowboard Of Death is
what you need to take complete control of the
days you spend on-hill this season. Its legendary
status as an all-terrain slayer leans toward the
mountain side of riding with a custom-designed
rockered nose, a zero-hybrid tail, and positive
camber through the mid-section. This allows for
tons of pop, insane control, and flotation in
powder – making you a better snowboarder in
variable terrain and changing conditions. The
2015/16 model features a modified shape and
increased torsional strength. Combined with
the Hover Core™, Nano carbon forks, and
progressive shaping geometry, the Black
Snowboard of Death stands as one of the most
advanced snowboards available.
Supermacho 161 Can you
imagine what would happen if The Black
Snowboard of Death and the NAS made a baby?
It would be progressive and badass and
basically born to rule the world. It would
definitely be Macho. The SUPERMACHO
integrates attributes of these two award
winning series into our first ever dedicated wide
series. Built for the big man that rides in a big
way, these decks have the progressive sidecut
inspired by the NAS and the Mountain FK
camber theory from The Black Snowboard of
Death. The net result is a powerful board that
carves hard, floats in powder, and is ready to
manhandle any terrain.
Capita/Volcom 154, 158 The
Volcom Stone series features a revolutionary
camber configuration that gives you a
traditional camber board with unprecedented
predictability. Through a small zero camber
section integrated with specific sidecut blend
zones near the tip and tail, you can enjoy the
pop and power of traditional camber with
unmatched stability at high speeds. Featuring
an all new Powershift Dual Core™ and
Dynaweave fiberglass configuration this
construction maximizes dampening and
predictability from a highly maneuverable
board. Whether you’re poppin’ ollies off of a
mogul or ready to send it off a Superpark jump,
you can trust the Volcom Stone.
Defenders of Awesome
154, 156 The Defenders of Awesome series
has a big reputation and these boards back it
up. And when we say they back it up, we mean
they back to back to back it up. As winners of
the most coveted design award in
snowboarding four years in a row, this highly
sought after series now has a Transworld Good
Wood 4-peat. It’s one of the best in the game
and has the accolades to prove it. The DOA
features a next-generation hybrid camber
design, which delivers the pop and response of
a camber board with the predictability of
reverse camber. This truly is the go anywhere,
do anything freestyle deck. For 2015, we have
added an all new DS Select RFC Sustainable
Dual Core and Fortress™ Kevlar Bound Sidewalls
for bomb-proof construction.
Indoor Survival 154 A CAPiTA
classic, the Indoor Survival is the go-to board in
and out of the park for a wide range of riders.
These boards carve hardpack with ease, and
they’re pre-positioned for pressing boxes and
rails in the park. Due to the elevated contact
points and mild rocker, they also float in
powder amazingly well. Specialized tip and tail
shapes give these boards better swing weight
while retaining the ability to power through
varied terrain. Featuring all new 20mm Titanal
Struts, these Transworld Good Wood Award
winners are some of the most versatile and
best-selling boards in CAPiTA’s history.
Spring Break Tree Hunter
161 With a soulful trip to the early days of
snowboarding, CAPiTA and Spring Break
present a line of hand-crafted surfboards for
the snow. Conceptualized by Corey Smith and
designed by CAPiTA, these beauties embody the
heart of Corey’s garage built, oversized,
plywood decks – but have been executed using
the technology available in the best factory in
the world. In fact, a lot of mad scientist R&D
went into these bad boys at CAPiTA MFG to
create an experience like no other. The thicker,
more buoyant, ultra lightweight Surflite™ core
combined with the new Surf Rocker profile and
wide shouldered shapes, all work together to
create zero-gravity float on top of the deepest
pow. We cooked up a uniquely blended sidecut
specifically designed for buttery smooth, soulful
pow rips. This shape features a surf-inspired
arch just past the inserts followed by a huge
reverse blend zone and topped off with a ton of
taper for ultimate floatation. Available in four
unique shapes, the Spring Break will take you
one step closer in the search for the perfect
wave.
Slush Slasher 147, 151 Suns
out, guns out kids – it’s Piña Colada time! No
snowboard in the history of snowboarding was
designed to make party like these bad boys.
From mid-winter to the spring or summer, if the
sun is shining and there’s something to slash,
these babies want to do the slashin’. With a
wide-body chassis and our Surf Rocker camber
configuration, the Spring Break Slush Slashers
are your affordable tool to the most memorable
and fun days spent ripping around with your
bros.
Jess Kimura Pro 146 For 2015,
we’ve redesigned the Jess Kimura Pro with a
Canadian Maple Dual Core™, enhanced
Dynaweave fiberglass, and added a new 138
size. The shaping theories and construction
reflect the durability and maneuverability
required for her passion and your progression.
One of the most decorated snowboarders of
this decade, Jess Kimura has swept the
Transworld Snowboarding Rider’s Poll Awards
multiple times. Did you see her part in
Defenders of Awesome 2? She definitely knows
how to STAY BAD ASS. Jess has made her mark
not only on women’s snowboarding, but on
snowboarding itself. Her fan base crosses
genders and is comprised of riders from all
spectrums of the sport who appreciate her

One of the most popular Women’s series in the
industry, the do-anything, go-anywhere Birds of
a Feather is here to change your riding forever.
This hybrid-camber, all-terrain destroyer
inspired Jess Kimura’s Pro Model designs, as
well as won the Transworld Good Wood and
Snow Board Mag Platinum Pick awards. Loaded

Space Metal Fantasy 145,
147 The award-winning Space Metal Fantasy is
regarded as one of the best women’s park
boards on the market. This very forgiving
reverse camber shape provides a fun
experience for intermediate riders looking to
expedite the learning curve and take their riding
to the next level. For 2015, we made it even
better. The SMF has been upgraded with a
reforestation certified core and Bitter End
Deflection Tuning in the tip and tail for impact
resistance. This series is fun for carving around
the slopes, playing on features in the park, and
even floats surprisingly well in powder. The SMF
experience is an awesome one – guaranteed to
send you through space and time.
Pick Your Line 159, 160 wide
The 016 Pick Your Line has actually taken a
while to develop. The release of UnderBite two
years ago opened up a Pandora’s box of ideas,
each one better suited for specific type of
terrain or approaches. This eventually led to the
PYL.
The Tapered UnderBite is unlike any outline
ever used on a snowboard. The board blends
into turns effortlessly, has the directional drive
and float you’d expect from a tapered board,
but it holds an edge and rockets out of turns
like nothing else.
To power this incredible chassis we dropped
the Carbon PowerDrive core. Custom milled
channels in the core are fitted with Bamboo
rods wrapped in carbon, creating inner core
tension that is perfectly matched to the sidecut
of each length. The new Carbon PowerDrive
core amplifies rider input into powerful rail-torail transitions and explosive turns.
Greats 152, 156 Just when you
thought this theme could not be milked any
further, we blow you away with the graphical
mind-melting of Mr. Peter-John de Villiers.
Inside the world of these deeply layered
illustrations you’ll be seduced by historical
references of past glories, influences and
milestones. The talents of Todd Richards, John
Cardiel, Noah Salasnek and the infamous Shawn
Palmer will never be forgotten and this year we
give respectful thanks for the world they had a
heavy hand in creating.
This year we’ve reshaped and refined the
Asymmetrical-twin that re-started it all. By
redesigning the nose and tail and tweaking the
sidecut geometry we’ve created an even better
asym. The tighter heel sidecut than toe,
balances out the inefficiencies of the way we
naturally ride and creates a board that is both
highly intuitive and rips going switch.
Typo 155, 159 wide The first year
of YES., the Typo was the Basic, so in a sense,
they’re kind of brothers. And when we saw the
need for an upgraded Basic, the name was
already set.
Taking the Goodwood winning shape of the
UnderBite Twin, we set the stance back 5mm
for a more all-mountain setup that’s ready for
resort powder stashes. We also upgrade the
base and gave it a little more robust flex pattern
to suit a more aggressive rider on a larger
playing field.
UnderBite 101 – By stepping the outline in
under the bindings (rather than out), it disrupts
the surface area that has contact with the snow
while the board is on edge. Without any extra
rider effort, this disruption effectively increases
edge pressure on the areas where you need it
most, helping to initiate and hold your turn.The
effect is stable edge control and a very
confident, enhanced arc in your turn with no
drag.
Basic 152, 156 wide For YES., The
Basic is what you might call our Jetta . It’s been
with us since the start but has come so far in
that time with no less than 3 design changes in
5 short years. Last year we unveiled the
UnderBite outline and a perfectly matched flex
pattern
to solidify the Basic as the, “get on it and rip
anything” kind of board.

effect is stable edge control and a very

drag.
Hel YES 149 With a re-tooling of over
half our line this year, we had the opportunity
to update this relatively new model. Continuing
with the directional freeride theme critical to
Helen’s approach it was important to maintain
a board that she had fallen in love with from
day one. Applying our groundbreaking
UnderBite outline was a logical choice because
it’s ability to extract more drive, more arc and
more traction out of any given sidecut. To
compliment the revised outline we upgraded to
a Poplar and Bamboo core keeping things light
and lively.
Emoticon 146 Playful, intuitive and
responsive, the Emoticon makes snowboarding
more fun by making it easier to express your
own style. A true twin shape and softer flex, the
real jeenyus of this board is it’s unique
UnderBite outline. Subtle but noticeable
indents along the sidecut at the binding area redistribute your body weight onto areas that
help you turn. The effect is stable edge hold and
a very confident, enhanced arc in your turn. No
weirdness, just a board that rides as well as you
know you can.
