tldr; Freestyle-oriented all-mountain twin. Snappy and poppy camber profile. Good for park jumps and groomers but struggles in pow and chop.

Best praise vs top criticism for Capita Mercury
“This is pretty cut and paste for anyone who doesn't have an existing quiver- pick your favorite looking camber dominant directional twin and call it a day Rides symmetrical on side cut so you can do switch and park with 0 problems, a little extra nose material vs the tail for extra powder float, and camber gives you much more power at speed while early rise has pretty much solved camber edge catch. I'd start looking at the Rome Stale Crewzer or Warden, Capita Mercury or Outerspace Living, Burton Custom, Jones Mountain Twin, or Ride Shadowban. Start with that list, and any board comparable will also be a great daily driver you can build around for specific use cases like a hard charger, powder board, rail board, etc. But directional twin with camber dominant will do 95% of conditions with 90% effectiveness and you won't need to think about it anymore”
“That is frustrating I seriously feel you there. I was in a straight up panic when I could barely fit my snow jackets any more lol. Very well could be the medication or BC. I'm 33 now and it took me a full year of going hard to shed the 30 pounds. Weight lifting didn't help at all. Cardio was the only thing that made the weight fall off. You should see if you can find a Capita Mercury. Pretty sure the board is unisex and even at my heaviest I really never noticed a difference on it. I also rode a Capita Super DOA at 210lbs on a 156. These are both pretty stiff boards. May want to lean towards something on the stiffer side around the 158cm range.”
