Capita CHILDREN OF THE POW vs Capita MEGA MERC

How they compare

Both target all mountain terrain, while the Capita CHILDREN OF THE POW leans more powder, while the Capita MEGA MERC leans more freeride. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Capita CHILDREN OF THE POW has a rocker profile (lifted contact points for easier turn initiation, float in soft snow, and a catch-free feel), while the Capita MEGA MERC uses hybrid (camber/rocker) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Capita MEGA MERC is noticeably stiffer at 7/10 versus the Capita CHILDREN OF THE POW's 4/10, suiting more aggressive riding. At $380 vs $999.95 MSRP, the Capita CHILDREN OF THE POW is the more budget-friendly option.
