The Jones Hovercraft Splitboard is a nimble compact design that combines great float in powder with uncanny handling in tight spots and trees. The compact shape keeps the weight to a minimum so your legs stay fresher on the skin up, but retains the strength and solid performance that Jones boards are known for. This is an awesome board for backcountry glades and tight chute terrain, while still holding its own on the groomer runs back to home base.
Directional Rocker – Camber 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 Rating: 7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – Medium-stiff flex for immediate response and loads of control. Less forgiving but is ready to damage rails, kickers, and anything else you toss at it. Well-rounded flex for all-mountain excursions.
Directional Shape
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 Sidecut – At 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.
Swallow Tail – Mild swallow tail lets the nose of the board float higher in powder
Jones Classic Core – Laminated, multi-density core of select hardwoods for performance and durability.
Biax Fiberglass – Biax 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.
Bamboo Sidewalls – Bamboo sidewalls on the inside edges of Jones splitboards smooth out the flex and reduce the use of ABS plastic, both good things.
Die-Cut Base – Base color displayed may not be available. Base colors may vary.
Sintered 7200 Base – Durable natural base material with added carbon for speed and good wax absorbency.
Belt Ground Finish – Smooth a flat right from the factory
Die-Cut Base – Base color displayed may not be available. Base colors may vary.
Inner and Outside Magne-Traction™ Edges – You can't afford to lose your edge on that sketchy sidehill traverse, hence Magna-Traction™ on both sides.
Oversized Recycled Edges – Recycled, thicker steel reinforces the snowboard's edges to give you exceptional impact resistance.
Hover 3D 1˚ Bevel – The last few centimeters of the Hovercraft tail edges are beveled 1˚ to loosen up the tail and create greater turn versatility.
Bamboo Topsheet with Burned-in Graphics – Branded!
Burned-in Graphics – What's better than eco-friendly ink topsheets? No-ink topsheets, of course - Jone's burns the graphic into the topsheet for this board!
Karakoram™ Hardware – All Jones splitboards feature Karakoram™ K-Clips plus tip and tail hardware. The adjustable tension K-Clips deliver a rock solid connection and add to torsional stiffness.
Quick Tension Tail – Designed to work in conjunction with Jones Quick Tension Tail Clip², this secure notch hold the tail strap of the skin securely and cleanly.
One Ball Jay BIO Wax – Factory waxed and ready to shred right out of the shop with One Ball Jay BIO wax.
Factory Tuned – Factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can charge from run one without worrying about hookiness.
Wrap Tip Construction – Full wood core to the tip with the ABS sidewall wrapping all the way around the tip for added response and durability
