Description:

The 2024 Hovercraft Split from Jones is an all-terrain split board made from riding deep pow and sending it through the trees. The Hovercraft is a Chris Christenson masterpiece that shows the power of focusing hydrodynamics to enhance snowboard performance. Whether your surfing the deepest snow of your life or bombing through chutes, the tapered direction shape and long sidecut enable this board to charge through anything while providing maximum float throughout the ride.

Why we like:

Feathering 3D-base contours with a strictly balanced 12mm spoon bevel in the nose, commencing at the rocker point, this asymmetrical flex pattern is total freeride-perfection. With different levels of stiffness in the nose, center and tail, the board is tailored to lift the nose, sink the tail, and provide infallible stability at speed.

Striving for an even faster glide and more natural turn initiation, the Jones Hovercraft 2.0 Split comes equipped with Inner/Outer Traction Tech 2.0 edges and the advanced 3D Contour Base. Finally, with the ground-breaking Boltless Bridge and superior Karakoram Ultra Clips 2.0, you'll experience the pinnacle of board connection.

"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
