Jones Stratos Splitboard

The Stratos is designed to bridge the gap between a dedicated powder board and a technical freeride deck. Thanks to its directional rocker profile and 3D Contour Base, it maintains a snappy, solid-board feel that tracks well on wind-buff and ice while still providing the float you need in deep powder.

Yes, it is a great choice for someone transitioning to the backcountry. The mid-stiff flex and directional shape make it forgiving enough to handle technical terrain without being overly demanding, while the responsive core provides the stability needed for long tours.

The medium tapered shape helps the tail sink slightly in deep snow, which naturally lifts the nose for better float. This design allows you to ride powder with less leg fatigue while keeping the board nimble enough to slash through tight trees or gullies.

Absolutely. The combination of carbon and flax stringers adds significant pop and energy return to the board while simultaneously dampening high-frequency chatter. It results in a smoother, more composed ride when you are navigating variable snow or high-speed descents.

The Sintered 8000 base is one of the fastest and most durable materials available, designed to hold wax well and resist damage from hidden rocks or debris. While no base is indestructible, this material is built to withstand the rigors of all-terrain touring.
