The Victor De Le Rue Signature Series Howler is the ultimate freeride board for those who love to explore the mountain with style and playfulness. Designed in collaboration with Victor and Elena Hight, this limited edition model features a minimally tapered directional shape, a mid-stiff flex and a full camber profile, providing insane pop, stability, and edge hold. Perfect for tackling steep, technical terrain and making every run an adventure.

  • Mid-stiff flex for power and control
  • Tapered directional shape for nimble float
  • Hybrid full camber profile for grip and stomping tricks
  • Long sidecut for stability at speed
  • Carbon / Flax Stringers + Koroyd in the nose to absorb chatter in rough snow.
  • Flip Tips for added float and fluid turn initiation
  • 2.0 - Moderate 3D Contour Base: 3D Contour Base tuned for all-terrain featuring 4mm spoon bevel in the nose and 0 to 4mm spoon bevel in the tail. Spoon bevel start just before contact point.
  • Wend Natural Wax: Jones boards are ready to shred straight out of the shop and are factory waxed with WEND natural wax.
  • 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.
  • 3D Flip Tip: 3D Flip Tip maximises float in deep powder, enhances glide and turn initiation, while reducing tip catch in rough terrain.
  • Koroyd: Koroyd is the lightest, most advanced damping core material we've ever tested. Koroyd absorbs vibrations and adds response at a fraction of the weight which enhances control and confidence.
  • Triax fiberglass: Multi-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any terrain or snow conditions.
  • 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.
  • Oversized recycled edges: All Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.
  • 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.
  • BComp Carbon Flax Stringer: BComp Carbon/Flax stringers offer the perfect performance balance as the carbon provides crazy pop and the flax sucks up chatter and reduces CO2 emissions compared to a full carbon stringer. Developed in collaboration with the Swiss engineering firm BComp.
  • Premium Eco Topsheet: Durable and scratch resistant bio-plastic top-sheet made from castor beans that's engineered to provide exceptional abrasion and impact resistance while minimising environmental impact.
  • Power Core: Triple-density full wood core featuring hardwood bamboo stringers for added pop and durability plus paulownia for weight savings.
