Description

Boasting supreme float and rally-car-like handling, it's easy to see why the Jones Hovercraft splitboard has a cult following. It deftly handles blower, crud or crust one and the same.

Features
  • Directional rocker nose and tail offer impressive float; camber between the feet delivers supreme edge grip
  • Classic Core has been profiled for better torsional response between the feet
  • Forever Flex production process helps break in the woodcore and stringers so board flex is even and responsive right off the bat
  • Inner/Outer Traction Tech 2.0 edges provide confident stability riding through tech terrain or unexpectedly rough snow conditions
  • Sintered 8000 base is hyperfast and factory-waxed with Wend Natural Wax
  • Engineered wood veneer topsheet damps the ride and absorbs board chatter
  • Steel edges and ABS sidewalls are recycled
  • Bio-Resin is formulated with bio-based materials, reducing the board's carbon footprint by 33% over conventional all-petroleum-based epoxies
  • Strong, low-profile Karakoram Ultra Clips 1.0 deliver excellent compression between board halves and are adjustable so you can maintain even compression as your board ages
  • Using Active Joining Technology, the Karakoram Tip-Lock Tip Clips quickly lock and clamp the tips of your splitboard with the flick of a lever
  • Jones Quick Tension Tail Clips attach to precut tail notches and eliminate the need for a traditional skin tail clip (skins not included)
  • Snowboard deck and base colors may vary from online photo
