DetailsJones Ultralight Hovercraft 2.0 Splitboard 2027
It's not lighter than air but pretty close. The Jones Ultralight Hovercraft 2.0 Splitboard pushes the boundaries of what's possible with lightweight backcountry boards. Redesigned with 3D Shape Tech, a floaty nose, long sidecut, and directional rocker profile, this thing rips on the uphill and the down. Fusion Carbon and Koroyd make up the bomber lightweight chassis, absorbing chatter and keeping you on track in tight spaces. Let loose in steep coulouirs and seek out fresh pow, the Jones Ultralight Hovercraft 2.0 Splitboard is made for big days and deep slays.
Product Details
Rocker Type:
Directional Rocker: A hybrid rocker/camber flex pattern defined by more tip rocker then tail rocker and camber between the bindings. The rockered tip floats the board’s nose and improves maneuverability while the camber underfoot provides edge hold and response. A slightly rockered tail maintains the power and stability of a traditional board but helps keep the tail catch-free initiating turns and landing switch.
Flex:
Flex Rating: 8 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Forever Flex: All Jones boards are broken in using specialized machinery that mimics extreme riding use to help stabilize the flex and rocker profile of a board for it's lifetime.
Directional Flex Pattern
Shape:
Blunt Nose: "How a board glides in powder, crust, corn or any snow more than an inch deep is dictated by it's 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 coming out from behind the tip 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 nose without the 'snow plow' rounded tip and it's extra 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 increasing the sidecut 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.
Directional Shape
Core:
Koroyd® Core: Award-winning synthetic core material developed for the
aerospace industry. Koroyd absorbs vibrations
and adds response at a fraction of the weight of wood
which enhances board control and riding confidence.
Fusion Core: The Fusion Core is Jones' lightest wood core yet. Core is
made from mostly paulownia with specifically positioned
pockets of poplar for improved durability and response.
Laminates:
Fiberglass Reinforcement: Fiberglass layer improve pop in nose and tail plus increases
the longevity of the flex profile. This lightweight layer
helps the board perform the same on day 100 as it did
on day one - precise and playful.
Ultra Construction: Ultra Construction is the redefinition of what it takes to
build a snowboard. Jones tested every inch of the board
to precisely position materials exactly where they are
needed while eliminating all excess materials. Combining
these innovative construction techniques with superlight
wood cores and carbon fiber deliver revolutionary results.
Jones Ultra boards are the lightest, yet most durable
snowboards on earth.
Sidewalls:
Recycled Rounded ABS: ABS plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. Jones improves the sustainability of their snowboards by using only recycled plastic.
Base:
Ultra Base: Jones exclusive base material that sets new performance standards. Lab
results and snow testing show 25% better wax absorption, better glide in
warm/wet snow and better durability for grinding. They've also doubled the
amount of wax and mixed multiple wax types for a faster factory wax in a
wider range of conditions.
Edges:
Inner Thin Recycled Edges: Advancements in ski edge durability allow Jones to use thinner edges to save weight.
Topsheet:
Ultralight ECO-Topsheet: Super damp, durable and lightweight topsheet material
made from organic plant material.
Additional Features:
Karakoram Ultra Clips 3C with Tips Lock: Karakoram Ultra Clips 3C feature a three point tension system. Ultralight and
exclusive to Jones, these clips redefine split clip technology. They are also
adjustable so you can maintain even compression as your splitboard ages.
Wend Natural Wax: Jones boards are ready to shred straight out of the shop and are factory waxed with WEND natural wax.
Bio Resin: All Jones boards are now built with bio-based, renewable epoxy instead of petroleum based epoxy. The raw materials used to make Super Sap Bio-Resin are co-products or waste products of other plant-based industrial processes. Producing Super Sap requires 33% less greenhouse gas emissions than conventional epoxy.
Factory Tuned: All Jones snowboards are factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can go right from the shop to the mountain.
