Capita Paradise Snowboard Review

The Capita Paradise is that perfect middle ground board. It lives right in that space on the border of aggressive and playful, able to seamlessly adapt to different styles of riding, moods and terrain. 

In this review, I will take a look at the Paradise as an all-mountain snowboard, which we define as the do-it-all swiss-army knives of boards. 

As per tradition here at SnowboardingProfiles.com I will give the Paradise a score out of 100 (based on several factors) and see how it compares with other women's all-mountain snowboards.

Who is the Paradise Most Suited To?

Recent changes saw the Paradise become less playful and easy riding that it once was. But those changes, which added a bit more brawn to the board allowed to be an even better all-rounder, helping it to sit right in the middle ground of playful and aggressive and in terms of its dampness vs snappiness and its freestyle vs freeride qualities. 

This makes the Paradise a pure do-it-all board that doesn't favor any one area of riding, but rather balances its qualities so that you're not found wanting whatever you want to do and wherever you want to go. 

So, if you have a diverse style and are looking to have just one board to satisfy the multiple skills in your arsenal, the Paradise is the perfect middle ground to cover everything. 

Paradise DetailS

O.k. let’s take a more detailed look at what the Paradise is capable of.

Demo Info

Board: CAPiTA Paradise 2026, 145cm (236mm waist width)

Date: March 18, 2025

Powder

Nothing to test in on the day, but based on specs and feel, the Paradise should have decent powder float. There is tip/tail rocker, a little bit of setback and a longer nose vs tail, which will all help with float. 

Carving

I found it to be noticeably better on a carve than older models. It felt nice and controlled during long drawn out carves and had good edge hold through short and long carves. Still not a carving beast at high speeds, but noticeably better and takes a decent amount more speed than it used to for it to start to want to let go. 

Turning

Ease of Turning/Slashing: It was nice and easy to turn and slash out its tail at slow and fast speeds. Not effortless but not much effort required. 

Maneuverability at slow speeds: Not as effortless as older models, but still really good maneuverability at slow speeds.

Catchiness: Very little in the way of a catchy feeling but just a hint of it - you can't quite throw all caution to the wind, but it's not something that's prone to catching an edge or anything.

Speed

It felt pretty smooth at speed and not too much chatter. It had its limits in terms of how long it was stable without starting to get wobbly, but that only started to happen at pretty high speeds, so it could handle a good amount of speed and stay stable and smooth. 

Uneven Terrain

Crud/Chunder: Wasn't a rough snow crusher, but it handles it well and remained pretty smooth and without too much chatter or getting bumped around too much. It wasn't immune to it, but it held itself pretty well.

Trees/Bumps: I found the Paradise smooth and quick edge-to-edge through trees and moguls. Easy to hug the turns between bumps.

Jumps

Pop: Npt epic amounts of pop, but decent enough and pretty easy to access too. 

Approach: Good mix of stable and ease of making adjustments. to line and speed. 

Landing:  I found there was a bit of wash out when landing too tail heavy. Still stompable with effort in being balanced when landing. 

Side-hits: Good on approach to side hits, easy to pop off side hits and could go big or small without trouble. 

Switch

I got a very smooth feeling when transitioning in and out of riding switch. And felt solid in general when riding switch. Easy to turn and maneuver at slow and fast speeds in switch direction. 

Spins

Good for setting up whether going cab or regular. Not catch-free, but pretty low catch risk.

A little bit of over-rotation after landing and tail heavy landings felt a little washy. Pretty easy to complete an under-rotation after landing and low catch-risk for that and reverts. 

Being light made it easier to get the rotation where you needed it to be as well. 

Jibbing

Not the best board for jibbing, in my experience, but also certainly not the worst. Landings were a little unforgiving, and while approach was fine, it wasn't perfect, making trying new features slightly daunting. For a seasoned jibber, it would be fine. For more beginner jibbers, might be a little tricky. 

Butters

Like many things with this board it was somewhere in the middle for ease of pressing the tip and tail. Some effort involved to get the tip and tail flexing, particularly enough so to lock in, but nothing that felt super hard. The tip and tail felt pretty similar. 

Whilst a fairly easy going flex overall, the tip and tail weren't super flexy or anything. 

Score Breakdown and Final Verdict

Check out the breakdown of the score in the table below.

The Paradise is extremely consistent across different terrains and whether your slashing, carving, bombing, getting air, or just casually cruising. There isn't anywhere or any discipline where it feels uncomfortable to ride, in my experience.
