Key Features
Jones Directional Rocker - A hybrid rocker/camber flex pattern defined by more tip rocker then tail rocker and slight camber between the bindings. The rocker tip gives the nose added float and improves maneuverability while the camber underfoot gives you added edge hold and response. A slightly rocker tail maintains the power and stability of a traditional board but helps keep the tail catch-free initiating turns and landing switch.
Traction Tech 3.0 - Traction Tech 3.0 features 3 bumps per edge (front binding, board center, back binding). The middle bump is slightly larger than the outside bumps which provides enhanced grip in all conditions.
3D Base Contour 3.0 - Freeride oriented, 3D Contour Base 3.0 features a generous 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and tail.
Core
FSC™ Ultra Core - The lightest wood core from Jones Snowboards to date. The core is made from mostly paulownia with specially positioned poplar stringers for better durability and turn power.
Laminates
Basalt Power Stringers - Sustainable stringers made with 100% natural fibers. Basalt stringers improve torsional response and transfer power from under your feet to the tips of the board to help eliminate chatter.
V-Core Construction - The V-Core Construction has a slightly softer flex in the center of the board for improved maneuverability and a stiffer flex from the inserts through the tip and tail for stability and pop.
Base
Sintered 9900 Base - Made from Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and Carbon. This ultra-fast base is easy to repair and extremely quick on snow.
Details
Progressive Sidecut - Delivers smoother turn initiation and exit as the edge tracks in and out of the snow with a less abrupt transition.
Float Pack Inserts - These inserts give you the option of a super setback stance for the deepest of deep days.
Blunt Nose - Provides the loft, or float, benefits of a much longer nose without the "snow plow" rounded tip and its extra swing weight.
Forever Flex - Forever Flex is a new manufacturing process that helps stabilize the flex and rocker of a board for its lifetime.
Eco-Plastic Topsheet - Bio-plastic top sheet made from Castor beans features a subtle texture for increased durability. This eco-material is lightweight and chip/scratch resistant.
Recycled ABS - ABS plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. Jones improves the sustainability of their snowboards by only using recycled plastic.
Oversize Recycled Steel Edges - All Jones boards are made with oversize recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.
FSC™ Sustainable Wood Core - All Jones wood cores are made with Forest Stewardship Council (FSC™) certified wood. Every piece of wood used comes from a responsibly managed forest.
1% For The Planet - Jones Snowboards has committed to contribute at least one percent of their annual sales to environmental causes. The mission of 1% for the Planet is to "build, support and activate an alliance of businesses financially committed to creating a healthy planet."
Supports "Protect Our Winters" - Protect Our Winters (POW) was started in 2007 by THE Jeremy Jones. It serves to educate about the importance of environmental protection to ensure a prosperous future for the outdoor recreation economy.
