Jones Howler Snowboard

No, this board is designed for intermediate to expert riders. Its mid-stiff flex and high-power camber profile require precise input and board control, which can be unforgiving for those still learning the basics.

Yes, despite its directional shape, the Howler is built to handle switch riding. It features a minimal taper that allows for creative, all-mountain exploration and freestyle maneuvers without sacrificing the stability needed for freeriding.

The Koroyd core is integrated to absorb high-frequency vibrations and chatter. This results in a smoother, more stable ride, especially when you are charging through variable snow or landing big airs, without adding unnecessary weight to the board.

It is a hybrid that excels in both. The directional shape and camber profile provide the float and edge hold needed for freeride terrain, while the carbon-flax stringers and mid-stiff flex give it the pop and responsiveness required for freestyle and park riding.

The Sintered 8000 base is a high-performance material that is very dense and porous, meaning it absorbs wax exceptionally well. To maintain its speed and durability, you should wax it regularly, especially if you ride in dry or abrasive snow conditions.

Yes, it performs well in powder thanks to its directional shape and 20mm setback. While it is not a dedicated powder gun, it offers enough float to handle deep days while remaining versatile enough to ride the rest of the mountain.
