2027 JONES HOVERCRAFT SNOWBOARD

Deep powder · Volume shifted · Stable & floaty

The original powder icon

Ideal for surfing powder, slashing wind lips and slaloming trees

An institution in the Jones line and a purpose-built powder craft, the Hovercraft 2.0 is built for unforgettable turns thanks to a volume-shifted design that enhances float and maneuverability in deep conditions. Weave lines in the trees, surf wide-open bowls and carve groomers on your way to the secret stash, the Hovercraft 2.0 reveals new lines on every mountain. Now evolved with Re-Up Tech stringers upcycled from old snowboards.

Shape & profile

Volume-shifted directional

A directional shape with volume-shifted dimensions, creating a wider, shorter outline that moves more surface area to the nose for incredible float in powder, while keeping the board nimble and easy to maneuver. Riders can significantly downsize with a volume-shifted board without sacrificing float or stability.

Float CamRock

Hybrid freeride profile for a great balance of powder and piste performance, featuring a long nose rocker and fully extended tail camber. This combination delivers incredible float in deep snow, while generating drive and grip in the tail to rail carves on piste.

High Traction Tech

High Traction Tech features three bumps per edge (front binding, board center, back binding). The middle bump is bigger than the outside bumps for better grip and control.

High Tapered

Our most accentuated taper, reserved for powder-focused shapes where float and maneuverability in deep snow are the priority. The wider nose plows through soft snow while the narrower tail sinks naturally. Any shape with more than 15mm of taper between the nose and tail.

Speed Hull

Unique to the Hovercraft 2.0 snowboard and splitboard, the Speed Hull in the tail reduces friction as snow passes under the board and improves overall glide and nimble control under the backfoot.

3D Contour Base

Surf-inspired shaping for next-level performance.

Inspired by the rounded bottom contours of surfboards, 3D Contour Bases are designed to make every run smoother and every turn more effortless by reducing the drag of the board tips. 3D Contour Bases enhance glide and improve float, helping you ride faster and with better flow.

High 3D Contour Base

Freeride focused 3D Contour Base featuring 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and 0-7mm of spoon bevel in the tail. Spoon bevel starts just before the contact points.

How it works

Riding flat

When riding flat, the spoon bevel on the edges is not engaged, but it does help smoothly deflect snow away from the nose of the board.

Turn initiation

As you begin to make a turn, the spoon bevel helps you smoothly roll the board on to your egde with less friction and edge drag.

Mid turn

In the middle of a turn, camber and Traction Tech keep you locked onto your egde in the center of the board while the spoon bevel reduces the "plow effect" of your nose and tail edges.
