2026 Jones Hovercraft Snowboard
The 2026 Jones Hovercraft 2.0 is a nimble, surf-inspired freeride board with serious tech under the hood. It’s designed for riders who want effortless float in deep snow, stability through choppy terrain, and a versatile directional shape that still feels playful and quick through trees.
Why we like it:
We like the Hovercraft 2.0 for its ability to handle a wide range of freeride conditions without ever feeling sluggish. The directional camber and 3D Contour Base give it plenty of float and agility, while the Speed Hull tail and recycled Flax Tech construction deliver a fast, responsive ride that’s also eco-conscious.
Who it's for:
Ideal for intermediate to advanced riders looking for a lightweight, high-performance board that excels in powder and tight terrain. Tree riders, powder seekers, and off-piste explorers will find this board’s blend of control and playfulness particularly appealing.
Highlights:
The Hovercraft 2.0 pairs a tapered directional shape with a low camber/rocker profile for surf-like float and quick edge-to-edge transitions. A Sintered 8000 base keeps you flying across flat zones, while the re-engineered Re-Up Tech Core and Flax Top provide pop, dampening, and sustainable construction. A High 3D Contour Base and Speed Hull tail profile help channel snow and reduce drag for fluid, arcing turns.
Things to consider:
Its freeride-focused shape and profile mean it’s less ideal for park riders or those who prioritize riding switch. Stick to powder, trees, and natural terrain to get the most out of this board’s unique shape and feel.
Fit & sizing considerations:
With a slightly wider waist and tapered tail, the Hovercraft 2.0 offers ample float without needing to size up. Most riders can stick with their usual length, but its maneuverability makes it easy to downsize slightly if preferred. Available in 144 to 160 with wide options for larger boots.
