• All Jones boards are factory waxed with a natural wax, ready to ride as soon as you hit the mountain.
• Forever Flex
• By overbuilding snowboards, Jones use a process in the factory to ‘break in’ the board to mimic 20 days ridden.
• Traction Tech
• Traction Tech enhances edge grip with strategically placed contact points, giving your board a firm, reliable hold on the snow—just like a serrated knife.
• 3D Base Contouring
• Inspired by surfboard design, 3D Contour Bases reduce tip drag for effortless turns, better glide, and enhanced float—so you can ride faster and with more flow.

Shape/Profile: Directional Camber

Flex: Mid-Stiff

Base: Sintered WFO

Details:

• Freeride Snowboards
  Designed for steep, off-piste terrain, freeride snowboards excel in aggressive riding, making them ideal for more advanced riders who want to tackle challenging conditions.

• Powder Snowboards
  Built for deep snow, powder boards typically feature a directional shape with a tapered tail, offering better float and ease of ride in fresh, deep snow.

• Tapered Directional: The tail of the board is narrower than the nose, enhancing control and stability in deeper snow, improving float in powder, and providing smoother turns. This shape is ideal for freeride and backcountry conditions.

• Directional Flex: With more pop in the tail and a stiffer nose, this flex design makes the board easier to control in all conditions, whether you're charging down a mountain or navigating technical terrain.

• Directional Camber introduces rocker in the nose, providing extra float in powder while maintaining the power, response, and edge control of traditional camber. This results in unmatched precision and stability.
• The Burton Channel replaces the traditional mounting system with a channel for front and rear inserts. This allows you to fine-tune your stance width and position, providing more flexibility in your setup. While the Channel is compatible with most major binding brands, it performs best with Burton EST bindings.

• Laminate: Triax with Carbon I-Beam
  Triax fiberglass is layered above and below the core to provide a versatile flex and consistent response, suitable for all types of snowboarding. A lightweight Carbon I-Beam backbone is added to the Triax fiberglass layer to increase pop and responsiveness.

• Super Fly II 700G Core: Uses stronger, lighter woods in targeted areas to provide more pop and strength while reducing weight.

• Dualzone EGD: Aligns the wood grain along the heel and toe edges in two continuous zones, perpendicular to the rest of the core, providing consistent edge hold and strength.

• Squeezebox: Features thicker, more powerful sections combined with thinner, more flexible sections throughout the core, enhancing energy transfer for a snappy, stable ride.

• Base: Sintered WFO
  The Sintered WFO base, standing for Wide F!#@ing Open, is crafted from an ultra-absorbent, high-density sintered material infused with specially formulated wax. This base is durable, fast, and performs well across a variety of conditions.

• Balanced Freeride Geometry
  A setback camber and stance-centered sidecut make this board feel like a twin when riding flat, while still providing the tight turns and effortless float typical of a directional board.

• Super Sap Epoxy
  Super Sap is a bio-based resin that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% compared to conventional petroleum-based epoxies, making the board more environmentally friendly without compromising performance.

The 2025 Free Thinker is a special snowboard coming directly from the creative mind of your favourite snowboarders favourite snowboarder, Danny Davis. This is Danny's do it all board. You can see him riding it in the half pipe, through park laps, cruising around groomers, and jumping off everything in sight, and its all thanks to his creative outlook on the sport and has directly influenced the design of this snowboard. A powerful traditional camber profile give this board solid edge hold and instant response, as well as poppy ollies, powerful turns, and strong stability at speed. Think freely, approach the mountain differently, and ride whatever you want, however you want.

Shape / Profile: Twin Camber

Flex: 6.5/10 Mid - Stiff

Base: Sintered WFO

Details:

• All Mountain / Freestyle
• The original, tried and true camber type, and the advocate of powerful turns and poppy precision. Traditional camber is the most aggressive camber type, offering unmatched power, response, and edge control.
• This board flexes the same in the nose and tail, allowing you to ride, pop, and press the same in regular and switch.
• Constructed exactly the same tip to tail, this board is designed to provide consistent performance when riding in both switch and regular.
• Super Fly II 700G - This core features stronger and lighter woods targeted in specific areas, which provides more pop and strength while reducing weight.
• Dualzone EGD - The wood grain of the core is positioned along the heel and toe edge in two unbroken zones perpendicular to the rest of the core, which gives consistent edge hold and strength.
• 45° Carbon Highlights - A tip to tail carbon layer reduces weight and contains 45° angled fibres, fine tuning the torsional flex to make a more aggressive ride.
• Squeezebox consists of thicker, more powerful sections combined with thinner, more flexible sections profiled throughout the core. This enhances energy transfer and makes the board snappier and more stable.
• Standing for Wide F!#@ing Open, this base made from an extra absorbent, high density sintered material that is infused with a specially formulated wax, resulting in an ultra durable base that rides Wide F!#@ing Open.
• The Burton Channel system forgoes your traditional 4-screw mounting system and introduces a channel for your front and rear inserts. This allows you to fine-tune your stance width, and gives you more freedom in your stance location. The Channel is compatible with most major binding brands, but works best with Burton EST bindings.
• Infinite Ride - Burton is able to maximise pop and performance by overbuilding their boards in the factory, and then using machinery to break it down for you. This allows your board to ride the same from day one, to day 100, season after season.
• The tip and tail of this board taper out at the points, reducing swing weight and promoting mobility.
• Edges that extend out slightly underneath your bindings for enhanced edge hold on hardpack and ice.
• Super Sap is a bio-based resin that reduces the carbon footprint by 50% over conventional petroleum-based epoxies.
