Available now in AUS + NZ as a limited early release, The Matriarch is a brand new series developed from the ground up by with The CAPiTA MotherShip™, a result of seven rounds of prototyping over two years.
“This was a process for me where I realized I can’t rush this, I have to take my time and really study this and learn as much as I can along the way.”
“This is a powder-focused board but there’s influence from two decades of experience riding transition in here. From hot lapping parks, big air contests, slopestyle, transition, groomers, carving even riding steel. Where I’m at now, I’m falling more in love with what I see as the essence of snowboarding which is powder freestyle riding and connecting turns, features, finding new lines and connecting with nature.”
“Being able to see the process at The MotherShip™, was a humbling experience to learn and discover this and to see how much goes into it and how many hands each snowboard touches before its rideable, and the standards they set there. The bar is really high.”
“For me The Matriarch represents the ultimate creative force.”
158cm first pressings, all uniquely hand-signed by Torstein.
Full Release (June 2026): 155, 158, 161, 157 W, & 160W.
