Jones Hovercraft 2.0
The new Hovercraft is a modern manifestation of our cult classic alternative freeride shape that features our most
advanced 3D shape tech and groundbreaking recycled materials. The Hovercraft’s new shape keeps the floaty nose,
compact tail, directional rocker profile and long sidecut that made the original model so nimble and stable, but its
been supercharged with 12mm of spoon bevel in the nose for lightning fast turn intiation and a glide accentuating,
speed boosting 3D hull in the tail. The new Hovercraft is also built with recycled materials from old snowboards
making it the most responsibly produced board in the Jones line. Now a unisex model with sizes to fit riders of every
body type, the one and only Hovercraft is ready to win the hearts of powder slashers and all-mountain rippers the
world over once again.

Bend
Directional Rocker: A hybrid rocker/camber flex pattern defined by more tip rocker then tail rocker and camber between the bindings. The rocketed tip floats the board’s nose and improves maneuverability while the camber underfoot provides edge hold and response. A slightly rocketed tail maintains the power and stability of a traditional board but helps keep the tail catch-free initiating turns and landing switch.

Fiberglass
Biax: A dual-direction, dual-layer, stitched fiberglass laminate that provides a fun, forgiving and snappy ride.
Base
Sintered 8000 Base : Super durable material made from Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and carbon. Base is easily repairable, highly wax absorbent and wicked fast.
Edges
Traction Tech: Like serrated knife slicing into the snow, Traction Tech improves your edge grip by adding multiple contact points along the running legit of your board.
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.
Oversized Recycled Edges: All Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.
