Had this sled a couple seaaons ago and switched to a Rossi Jib Elite because of that slow speed twitch. I just didn't get along with it. But it was a beauty otherwise. This review is effing spot on. Capita's textured bases are unreal, best in the industry far as I can tell. Kinetic energy was there underfoot, more reactive and not quite as damp and stable as the Jib Elite but still solid. But gawddammmm the speed was ridiculously awesomated. Only my Stratos has a similar speed but I think the Merc still took the title. For any dudes curious I had it paired with Cartel X's and that was sick, but I think a Bataleon binding woulda been even better for some sweet dampening.

@MrIvanPe 4 месяца назад

I have the predecessor to the Mercury, the Totally FK’n Awesome. Mine is light (back in the day they used the higher end bamboo core). Got on it again last winter and the thing I noticed is how easy it is to ride compared to the fully cambered boards I have been on recently. It really takes the mental load off so you can concentrate on your riding more. The twitch is real. You just need to get used to it. You don’t have the beautiful carves of a cambered board, or the pop, but it felt super comfortable and just made me more confident riding hard. What’s interesting is that whereas a cambered board wants to lock you into a fixed arc, this sidecut allows you to tighten up or lengthen out your carves without thinking, which makes it really manoeuvrable on the fly, like if you’re lining up a takeoff in choppy snow. Capita really discovered some secret sauce with this shape, and it’s no wonder so many pros are still riding it. A true classic.

@bonzo8027 7 месяцев назад

It's a great allmountain Snowboard not a freestyle imo. It is for someone who likes to ride piste, powder, hit some park occasionaly, jumps and wants to have one board. Death grip feels catchy when flat basing, board wants to stay on adge all the time but on the other hand grips well on hard and icy snow. The only problem with this board is since it does everything well, the other boards in your quiver stop making any sens.

Whats up Angry Snowboarder! I Live in Alberta Canada where conditions can very between great powder days to ran through groomers which is why iv'e always stuck to an all mountain board. Im an advanced rider who enjoys bombing the hill as well as finding side hits, ripping through trees and surfing through powder on the days it's there! I currently have a 2021 Salomon assassin 158W which I really do love. I think the one thing the board is lacking for my specific riding style is the lack of energy the board has, it knocks everything out of the park but im looking for a little bit better edge hold without sacrificing too much on the playful side. The mercury is definitely a board I have been considering but I would love to hear your opinion! I do play around in the park here and there but its not a focal point of my riding, although I hit the jumps from time to time. Im 6 feet tall 160 lbs with a 10.5 boot size and medium Salomon bindings. Looking forward to your'e feedback!

Great content - with no bullshit! Always on point! Love it. Gonna make you really angry with some stupid questions: A 38yo coming from skiing (advanced) would like to become a snowboarder. I am 6,1 / 190-200lbs / 11us boots. Ambitious Beginner with 7-8 riding days on a rental unknown snowboard. Can handle come safely come down a mountain until now on lower speeds, also some very small “jumps” - I mean really small. Want to progress in the future. 1x year in mountains in Austria / Germany - out of season regularly indoor (10-15x per year). Looking for an one and only snowboard to cover everything. Not necessarily park - all mountain, but mainly piste. Later with progress - between trees and all funny things. Capita Mercury seems to be everything I am looking for, but too much for a beginner? I don’t care about design. I need a board to fit to my current level with space to progress and not having to switch board after 1-2 years. Which one would you give me on hand? Rome Artifact Pro Capita Mercury Never Summer Proto Synthesis Jones Mountain Twin Or any other ? Thank you man!!!

Hi, how do you compare Mercury and nitro team in terms of carving & turning? Will Mercury be much better in powder due to the rocket noise?

Hey, looking for board size recommendation! I’m 5ft9, size 9, 84kg / 185lbs … would a 157 be okay or 159 better suited?

@AngrySnowboarder 5 месяцев назад

Depends on what you want it for. More all around with a freestyle use 57, more charging 59.

@rjpietraszewski7133 10 месяцев назад

Do you suggest normal sizing? I am 5'10, 180lbs, size 10.5 boot. I normally ride between 156-158 but its 155 or 157 in this case (155 seems a bit small, unless the board is designed to size a bit down?).

57.

hey I'm about an early intermediate and want an all mnt board that can handle powder. I was debating between this and the t rice pro.

For mostly (euro) on-piste boarding, carving/bombing, lil powder on the side of the piste, rarely in the park, would you pick mercury, jones MT, or the resort twin?

How would you describe how this board feels different riding compared to say a bataleon goliath?

@AngrySnowboarder 8 месяцев назад

Goliath is a little more damp and feels just a hair stiffer from outside the inserts through the middle. You also have different edge engagement because of the 3BT. The Mercury has a quicker edge bite and feels more secure on firm to icy snow.

@bennywiderker842 8 месяцев назад

@@AngrySnowboarder would you say the mercury, given its rocker structure at top and tail is also somewhat “forgiving” when edging errors occur? I have been riding the b whatever 2019 model since it came out, and would like to change to something which is a bit faster and more responsive, while still being “forgiving” when one doesnt pay much attention, on flat runs etc.

@AngrySnowboarder 8 месяцев назад

The only thing to know is that at slower speeds the Mercury can feel a little twitchy on the sidecut for some people. This one I didn't feel as much as I have the previous versions.
