Deep Dive
The Jones Snowboards Ultra Flagship Snowboard is the ultimate companion for epic backcountry adventures. With its lightweight design, this board effortlessly glides through deep powder and maintains stability even in tracked-out conditions.
The directional shape and Directional Rocker profile of this board allow for incredibly responsive turns while still offering a lively and poppy feel. The triple-density full-wood Power Core, reinforced with bamboo stringers, ensures durability, torsional stiffness, and maximum pop - perfect for sending it off cliffs, pillow lines, and more.
Experience enhanced energy transfer and responsiveness with the strategically placed Power Plates. The Fusion Carbon Construction, featuring carbon layers along the wood core from tip to tail, provides additional confidence when taking on technical lines. The Ultra Construction not only keeps the board lightweight but also embodies Jones' dedication to precision, innovation, and sustainability.
This expert-level freeride snowboard is specifically designed for powder chasing and freeride competitions. The directional rocker ensures an effortless ride through powder with its floaty nose, while the camber underfoot improves edge hold and pop. The 3D Contour Base 3.0 adds a spoon-shaped lift in the tip and tail, and the board is constructed with bio-based and recycled materials for an environmentally-friendly design.
