Jones Frontier 2.0

The Frontier 2.0 is an excellent choice for intermediate riders looking to progress, but its forgiving medium flex makes it approachable enough for ambitious beginners who want a board they won't outgrow quickly. It offers enough stability for experienced riders to charge hard, while remaining easy to maneuver for those still refining their technique.

The tapered shape helps the tail sink slightly in deep snow, which improves float, but it doesn't compromise your ability to carve on hardpack. You will find that it initiates turns smoothly and maintains a locked-in feel on groomed runs thanks to the directional camber-rocker profile.

Yes, the Frontier 2.0 is designed specifically to handle powder. The combination of the tapered directional shape and the 3D contoured base allows the nose to rise naturally above the snow, keeping you afloat without requiring you to lean back aggressively.

The 3D contouring bevels the edges at the nose and tail, which makes turn initiation smoother and less catchy. It essentially helps the board transition from edge to edge more fluidly, giving you a more responsive and forgiving feel in variable terrain.

While the Frontier 2.0 is built primarily for all-mountain exploration and powder, its medium flex and directional twin shape make it capable enough for occasional park laps. It isn't a dedicated freestyle board, but it handles jumps and side hits with plenty of pop and stability.
