Jones Hovercraft 2.0 Splitboard

4.7

Best ultralight splitboard for backcountry explorers seeking effortless deep powder performance.

This is the ultimate tool for long-distance backcountry missions where every ounce counts. Its featherweight carbon construction makes climbing effortless and deep powder turns feel telepathic, though you'll sacrifice some dampness and stability when the snow turns firm and chattery.
