Size chart for Jones Snowboards - Men Snowboards

Ideal for pow slashing, crud busting and slaloming trees

The Hovercraft is an alternative freeride board who’s nimble maneuverability and diverse performance has earned it a cult following. The unique shape matched with a directional rocker profile, Traction Tech 3. and a long sidecut allows the Hovercraft to float through any snow plus rail turns of any size. With a blunt nose, a short stiff tail, and a wide waist width, the Hovercraft is designed to be ridden shorter then your average freeride board as the compact shape packs serious surface area in a small package. The Hovercraft features a 3D Contour Base 4. with spooned nose+tail edges for improved float plus a speed channel in the tail for added glide. New for 22, the Hovercraft is built with an FSC Engineered Veneer topsheet.

Snowboards are usually delivered ready-to-ride with a waxed base and sharpened edges. However, this so-called factory-tuning is not very durable and your new snowboard should be properly waxed after a few days and maintained on a regular basis.
