Jones Hovercraft 2.0 Ανδρικό Splitboard
SKU: 403033023
The evolved backcountry racer
Ideal for backcountry chutes, bowls and tree runs
The Hovercraft Split is a nimble and explosive all-terrain splitboard built with our most advanced 3D shape tech and groundbreaking recycled materials. The Hovercraft's new shape features the floaty nose, compact tail, directional rocker profile and long sidecut that made the original shape so versatile, but its been supercharged with 12mm of spoon bevel in the nose for lightning fast turn initiation.
Directional Rocker
A hybrid rocker/camber flex pattern defined by more tip rocker than tail rocker and camber between the bindings. The rockered tip floats the board’s nose and improves maneuverability while the camber underfoot provides edge hold and response. A slightly rockered tail maintains the power and stability of a traditional board but helps keep the tail catch-free initiating turns and landing switch.
"My experience is that most falls in freeriding start from the nose of the board – you either go over the bars in powder the nose gets caught under a weird crust and tosses you or you hit a hard tranny at the contact point of the tip and get bucked. Directional Rocker eliminates most of these falls." - Jeremy Jones
Shape Tech
1. Inside & outside Traction Tech 2.0
Traction Tech 3.0 features three bumps per edge (front binding board center back binding). The middle bump is slightly bigger than the outside bumps for better grip.
Inner edge Traction Tech
Inner edge Traction Tech improves splitboard edge grip on ascent. Three sidecut bumps on each side of your binding keep your locked in on icy skin tracks no matter which way you are traversing.
2. 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.
3. Quick Tension Tail Clip
Built-in climbing skin tension system using pre-cut notch that eliminates the need for a traditional skin tail clip.
4. Boltless Bridge
The Boltless Bridge eliminates split clip attachment hardware from the base of the board by re-profiling the wood core at the clips. The wood core under the clips is thicker providing better torsional stiffness and a more powerful connection at the split clips.
Directional flex pattern
Off set tip-to-tail flex pattern that is designed for directional freeride boards. The nose center of board and tail are slightly different stiffnesses to help lift the nose sink the tail and improve stability at speed.
Blunt nose
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
3D Contour Base 3.0
Freeride focused 3D-base contours featuring an even balance of 12mm of spoon bevel in the nose. Spoon bevel starts at the rocker point.
About 3D Contour Bases
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.
Built with the finest tech and materials
100% of our adult models feature high-end materials construction technologies and sustainable manufacturing process. We accept no compromises in producing the most durable and sustainable snowboarding gear.
Base
Sintered 8000 Base
New super durable material made from Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and carbon. Base is easily repairable highly wax absorbent and wicked fast.
Wend Natural Wax
Jones boards are ready to shred straight out of the shop and are factory waxed with WEND natural wax.
Extra hardware
Karakoram Ultra Clips 2.0 with Tip-Lock
Redesigned Karakoram Ultra Clips 2.0 are lighter weight clamp tighter and have a smaller footprint than the original Ultra Clip. They are also adjustable so you can maintain even compression as your splitboard ages.
Fiber
Biax fiberglass
A dual-direction dual-layer stitched fiberglass laminate that provides a fun forgiving and snappy ride.
Other features
Bio Resin
Bio Resin is a bio-based epoxy made with 27% plant-based carbon instead of petroleum-based carbon. The organic raw materials used to make bio-resin are co-products or waste products of plant-based industrial processes. Bio-resin requires 33% less greenhouse gas emissions to produce than conventional epoxy.
Oversized recycled edges
All Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.
Recycled ABS Sidewalls
ABS Plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. We improve the sustainability of our snowboards by using only recycled plastic.
Factory Tuned
All Jones Snowboards are factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can go right from the shop to the mountain.
Forever Flex
Forever Flex is a new manufacturing process that helps stabilise the flex and rocker of a board for its lifetime.
Topsheet
Sustainable Flax Top
Flax fibers are used in place of a traditional topsheet and offer a damp ride that absorbs chatter at any speed. Flax uses less resin in the board layup which saves more weight and synthetic materials.
Woodcore
Control Split Core
Dual-density full premium wood core featuring a 2:1 paulownia to poplar stringer ratio that keeps core light but ultra damp.
Sizing Details
Choose your ideal board size range using your body weight and boot size.
To decide between two sizes choose the smaller size if your priority is maneuverability and freestyle performance choose the larger size if you're focused on riding fast and powder performance. A shorter board will be easier to turn and a longer board will offer better float and stability riding off-piste.

Eco-Performance
We never sacrifice performance and durability for sustainability.
We strive to make products with the least impact on the planet possible but we trust our lives to our gear so we must value performance foremost. We test new materials and production processes to make sure we never sacrifice performance or durability just to make a product more sustainable. Durability is a critical aspect of sustainability as the longer the gear lasts the less waste that goes to the dump. This ECO-Performance design philosophy is the foundation upon which everything we make is made.
Sustainability
We strive to minimize the impact of our gear.
To make gear in the most responsible way possible we strive to minimize the impact of our materials and manufacturing processes however we can. All of our snowboards splitboards and outerwear are partially if not completely made with recycled materials and they always have been. Our boards are also made in a factory that runs on 100% solar power and the fabrics we use in our outerwear are Oeko-Tex and/or Bluesign® certified - the two leading responsible material certifications in the apparel industry.
Innovation
We aspire to do things differently.
From our groundbreaking board shapes to our trailblazing outerwear designs we never settle for anything less than game changing gear performance. By keeping an open mind to new gear concepts materials and production processes we aspire to do things differently and make innovative gear and outerwear that blends comfort durability and industry leading responsible manufacturing practices with standard setting performance.
