Jones Stratos 2024 Snowboard

Regular price $999.99 Save $-999.99

The Jones Stratos Snowboard is an all-mountain froth machine built to put the spring back in your step and remind you why you fell in love with snowboarding in the first place. It's a capable freeride performer with a hybrid shape that's just as comfortable arcing a perfect carve as it is slashing pow turns and buttering off cat tracks. It feels like that first gulp of crisp alpine air when you roll up to the mountain, and it's just as good for the soul. Directional shapes aren't just for pow anymore, and the Stratos will show you why. From kickers to couloirs, this board is sizzlin'.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS PRODUCT IS A PRE-ORDER AND IS DUE TO ARRIVE MID-MAY.

FLEX RATING -

Flex Rating7 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)

Forever FlexAll Jones boards are broken in using specialized machinery that mimics extreme riding use to help stabilize the flex and rocker profile of a board for it's lifetime.

Directional Flex Pattern

 

PROFILE -

Directional RockerA hybrid rocker/camber flex pattern defined by more tip rocker then 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.

 

SHAPE -

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

Progressive SidecutAt 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.

10mm TaperThe tapered shape sinks the tail in pow for better float and quicker turns.

3D Contour Base 3.0Freeride focused 3D Contour Base featuring a 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and 0 - 7mm of spoon bevel in the tail. Spoon bevel starts at the rocker point.

 

CORE -

V-CoreBoards with V-Cores are slightly softer in the very center of the board for improved maneuverability and stiffer through the tip and tail for stability and pop.

FSC™ Ultra CoreThe new Ultra Core is Jones' lightest wood core yet. Made from mostly paulownia with specially positioned poplar stringers for better durability and turn power.

Ultra ConstructionThe Ultra series is the redefinition of what it takes to build a snowboard. Jones Ultra boards combine innovative construction techniques with premium materials for revolutionary results.

 

LAMINATES - 

Power Sustainable Basalt StringersSustainable stringers made with 100% natural fibers. Basalt stringers improve torsional response and transfer power from under your feet to the tips of the board to help eliminate nose and tail chatter. 

 

SIDEWALLS -

Recycled ABSABS plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. Jones improves the sustainability of their snowboards by using only recycled plastic.

 

BASE -

Sintered 9900 BaseSintered Ultra High Molecular Weight polyethylene with carbon additives.

 

EDGES - 

Oversized Recycled EdgesAll Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.

Traction Tech 3.0Traction 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.

 

TOP SHEET - 

Textured Eco-Plastic TopsheetBio-plastic topsheet made from Castor beans featuring a subtle texture for added durability. This eco-material is ultralight, chip/scratch resistant and water/snow repellent (snow sticks less to topsheet).

 

BINDING COMPATABILITY

2 x 4 Insert Pattern

Float Pack InsertsFloat Pack Inserts give you the option of a super setback stance for guaranteed float on the deepest days.

 

ADDITIONAL FEATURES -

Bio ResinAll Jones boards are now built with bio-based, renewable epoxy instead of petroleum based epoxy. The raw materials used to make Super Sap Bio-Resin are co-products or waste products of other plant-based industrial processes. Producing Super Sap requires 33% less greenhouse gas emissions than conventional epoxy.

Factory TunedAll Jones snowboards are factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can go right from the shop to the mountain.

Wend Natural WaxJones boards are ready to shred straight out of the shop and are factory waxed with WEND natural wax.
