Alright so ive used the search bar and ive read everything on the Capital website but does anyone have any first hand info on them? They look rad and im seriously thinking of getting a pair of big mountain twins for next season but i want to know how they hold up, as far as delaming and edge abuse is concerned. i realize theyve only been around a short time but maybe someones had a season on them. Thanks

as far as duarbility goes, capital is up there with the best of the fucking best.

k2, armada, volkl... whatever... none of them even come close to being as durable as a pair of handmade sticks.

you can drill them 5 or 6 times too. it doesn't get better than that meng.

from what i have heard they are weapon of mass destruction proof but you should also check out TGR - there should be a fair bit of info on customs over there..
