Capita Kids

Frequently Asked Questions

• How do I choose the right CAPiTA kids' snowboard size for my child?

  Choose a model and size primarily by rider weight and intended terrain: Micro Mini sizes (80–110cm) target toddlers and very light riders (e.g., a 110cm often suits ~50–65 lbs), while Children Of The Pow (130–140cm) suits taller kids chasing powder. If your kid wants pow/sidecountry float, favor a longer directional length with setback; for park progression, pick a slightly shorter true twin for easier spins and presses. Also check model-specific waist width and binding mount (2x4 or 4-hole) to ensure proper boot fit and stance spacing.
• How do the Children Of The Pow, Scott Stevens Mini, and Micro Mini differ?

  The Children Of The Pow is a directional, Surf Rocker powder board in 130–140cm with a medium flex and wider waist for float and stability in deep snow. The Scott Stevens Mini is a park/resort progression deck with a Park Mini rocker/flat/rocker profile, true twin shape, and a softer flex for catch‑free jibbing and learning tricks. The Micro Mini targets toddlers (80–110cm) with a super-soft 3/10 flex, narrow waists, and playful profiles optimized for balance and early progression.
• Which CAPiTA kids' snowboard models are best for powder, park, and beginner riders?

  For powder-focused young riders choose directional shapes with Surf Rocker and a small setback—Children Of The Pow is built for float and steeper terrain. For park and freestyle progression, the Scott Stevens Mini’s Park Mini profile, true twin shape, and soft flex makes learning spins, jibs, and presses easier. For beginners and toddlers start with the Micro Mini (80–110cm) with a super‑soft flex and forgiving profile to build balance on groomers and small slopes.
• How should I set stance and binding position for a directional powder board versus a true twin park board?

  On a directional powder board lean toward a setback stance (often around 0.8 in on CAPiTA powder models) to shift contact toward the tail and promote nose float, and use a slightly more centered or forward-leaning binding angle for control in deeper snow. On true twin park boards set the stance centered (0 in setback) so presses and switch riding feel symmetrical, and use neutral binding angles for balanced pop and easier switch landings. The 2x4 or 4‑hole insert patterns on CAPiTA youth boards let you fine‑tune these positions as your child grows and their riding preferences evolve.
