The Jones Hovercraft Snowboard was designed to do one thing: float on top of the good stuff. With tons of surface area and a set-back, directional hybrid-rocker shape, the Hovercraft glides through low-angle tree runs with plenty of speed and will open your eyes to new stashes all over your local resort. Just don't be surprised to hear your friends grumbling and swearing behind you as they get stuck trying to follow your line.

  • Directional hybrid-rocker shape uses exaggerated rocker in the nose with slight camber between your feet - tons of float without sacrificing control through crud or chop
  • Wide, blunted nose shape reduces drag to stay above deep snow easily
  • Modified Magne-Traction edges add five contact points - mellower toward the tip/tail to allow feathering turns, and more pronounced between the feet for powerful grip on ice
  • Thin film topsheet replaces traditional plastic for reduced weight and environmental impact
  • Sustainably farmed wood core is FSC-certified
  • Short length combined with large sidecut radius makes the board easy to throw around in tight spaces, but also stable at speed
  • Carbon-infused sintered base holds a ton of wax to keep you sliding fast

Bottom Line: Your best friend on a resort powder day - in anything from four inches to four feet.

More then a Pow board

By: Backcountry.com Sponsored Athlete

I have been dreaming of this board for years; a turbo charged pow board that floats so well it turns low angle stashes into full-speed features. My home mountain looks totally different riding the Hovercraft because I constantly find new hips and slashes in places I'd never seen before. An oversized nose planes above the snow and smooths out the afternoon chop like none other.
