Whats my edge angle (capita midlife) - Snowboarding Forum

03-14-2010, 12:32 AM

I have a 2009 capita midlife. I was just wondering if anyone knows what the bevel angle is on it. I cannot find it on their site or anywhere. Also what are some good options for edgers. I have been riding it pretty hard since the begining of this season and thing its about time for a sharpening.

I don't think I've ever read that they put a bevel on their edges so I'm guessing it's 90. I like to put a 3 degree base bevel on my boards so their less catchy on rails. I combine that with a 2 degree side so it still stays effective enough when riding groomers.

capita edges are like gillete razors for snow! i just got a stairmaster, amzing ride btw, and its edges are sosharp and no bevel, not a big deal just detune a decent amount and make sure you round up fro the base and it rides so perf on eveything. you dont have to bevel everything out
