Product Info

As Lao Tzu is famous for saying: The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single shred (or something like that). Launch your journey this winter with the Jones Discovery Snowboard, a solid freeride board for youth and small adults looking to devour new terrain. Directional rocker on the Discovery lends legit stability for smaller riders when carving at speed, while a progressive sidecut allows for easy turn initiation and exit. Blunt nose shaping and rocker in the tip and tail conspire to make the Discovery maneuverable in a variety of conditions, which is good, because with the Jones Discovery Snowboard in your quiver you'll be set to enjoy boundless discoveries this winter and for winters to come. *This is a factory blem board that may have slight cosmetic damage.*

Product Details

Rocker Type

Directional RockerCamber underfoot with a long, gradual tip rocker and slight tail rocker. The rockered nose helps float in powder and improves maneuverability, while camber underfoot aids edgehold. Mild tail rocker lets you choose the turn shape that fits the occasion.

Flex

Flex Rating: 5 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)This snowboard has a medium flex rating which is perfect for all-mountain riders who don't want to be held back. Medium flex boards are stable, good at turning, and playful. This snowboard will equally perform on groomers, powder, and in the park. Versatility sits right in the middle.

Shape

DirectionalDirectional snowboards are the best for turning and charging. This snowboard shape is designed to have a more flexible and longer nose with a stiffer tale to concentrate pop. Basically, directional snowboards are the turning, pow slaying masters who prefer to be going fast.

Blunt Nose"How a board glides in powder, crust, corn, or any snow condition more then an inch deep is dictated by its front contact point and just past it. Next time you are in soft snow, watch how much snow comes over the corner of the nose near the contact point. The billowing snow means you are plowing through it which is obviously slowing you down. By adding a blunt nose, you get the float benefits of a much longer board tip without the added length or swing weight." - Jeremy Jones

Progressive SidecutAt the far ends of the sidecut, the radius is incrementally increased as the edge reaches the contact point. Gradually decreasing the side cut radius towards the contact point delivers smoother turn initiation and exit as the edge tracks in and out of the snow with a less abrupt transition.

Core

Jones Classic CoreLaminated, multi-density core of select hardwoods for performance and durability.

Laminates

Biax FiberglassBiax laminate consists of fiberglass that is braided in two directions. The fibers are braided vertically at 90 degrees. This ensures a torsional flex that is more evenly distributed throughout the snowboard. For you, this translates to a snowboard that is easy to handle and jib friendly.

Fiberglass ReinforcementA new lightweight layer of fiberglass not only adds to the pop in the nose and tail of the board but improves the longevity of the flex profile.

Sidewalls

Recycled ABS SidewallsJones is in it for the long haul, and with sustainability in mind they use only recycled plastic for their sidewalls.

Base

Extruded 5000Classic base material built for durability.

Edges

Oversized Recycled EdgesRecycled, thicker steel reinforces the snowboard's edges to give you exceptional impact resistance and improved production sustainability.

Mellow Magne-Traction™A tiny wave in the edge under your feet results in a catch-free ride with bomber edgehold on any snow surface. "Magne-Traction™ is a key ingredient for rockered board designs. Adding rocker to your board makes it glide more smoothly, but it makes it harder to really lock into your turns and hold a solid edge. Magne-Traction™ is crucial to offset the drift typical of rocker flex patterns." - Jeremy Jones.

Topsheet

Film TopsheetNew film topsheet adds to consistent response and drops weight at the same time.
