The Jones Hovercraft 2.0 is a refined snowboard for those who want full control in powder, ice, and everything in between. This is a stable board at speed with a playful feel, built for freeriders seeking versatility without compromising performance.
To begin with, the Hovercraft 2.0 has a directional shape with a tapered tail and a powerful nose. This allows the board to float fantastically in deep snow, while the camber underfoot provides excellent edge grip and response on hardpack. The long sidecut radius helps maintain stability even at high speeds.
To make every turn as smooth as possible, the Jones Hovercraft 2.0 features a 3D Contour Base 3.0, which bevels the edges at the front and back. Together with Traction Tech 1.0, you also get extra grip when needed, especially in icy or varied conditions. The directional rocker profile provides both float in deep snow and reliable edge grip for carving.
With Re-Up Tech, materials from old snowboards are used in the construction, both in the stringers and the core. This gives new life to resources that would otherwise go to waste. The new Reclaimed Core combines poplar and paulownia with reinforcements made from recycled boards, which both reduces weight and increases responsiveness.
The topsheet of the Jones Hovercraft 2.0 consists of natural flax fibers that dampen vibrations and reduce the need for synthetic materials. Add a sintered 8000 base with natural wax from WEND, and you have a board that is both fast and ready to ride straight out of the box.
In short: the Hovercraft 2.0 is a board for those who ride everywhere but are not satisfied with mediocrity. It handles all types of snow and terrain with both control and feel – while doing so with a smaller environmental footprint.
