Product Description

Built for riders who chase storms into the backcountry and live for waist-deep days, the Jones Storm Chaser Splitboard funnels serious float into a compact, high-volume directional shape. A swallowtail tail releases turns with a surfy pop while the Rocker-Camber-Rocker profile floats the nose and grips underfoot when it counts. One size, one mission: unlock the deepest frozen swells from the skin track up.

Product Details

Rocker Profile	Directional Camber/Rocker: rocker at the nose for float and fluid entry, camber underfoot for grip and powerful response, rocker at the tail for a surfy, turn-releasing feel
Shape	Directional with high taper and swallowtail/high-volume outline; designed for deep powder float and directional surfing in the backcountry
Flex	3 / 5 (Happy Medium): versatile mid flex that balances powder playfulness with enough backbone for variable backcountry snow
Topsheet	Premium Topsheet: durable and scratch-resistant premium topsheet for intensive splitboard use
Core	Control Split Core: dual-density Paulownia and Poplar (2:1 ratio) splitboard-specific woodcore; lightweight, damp, and durable
Stringer	Bcomp Carbon Flax Stringer: carbon fiber for pop combined with flax fiber for vibration damping and reduced CO2 footprint versus an all-carbon stringer
Fiberglass	Biax Fiberglass: biaxial fiberglass laminate delivering a mid-soft torsional flex and fast energy transfer
Sidewalls	Recycled ABS: 100% recycled ABS sidewalls with rounded finish to reduce chipping
Base	Sintered 8000 Base: ultra-fast sintered base, highly wax absorbent, easy to repair
Edges	Inner Thin Recycled Edges: lightweight recycled steel edges on the internal splitboard edges to reduce overall board weight · Recycled Edges: recycled German steel on external edges for maximum robustness and durability
3D Contour Base	High 3D Contour Base: 7 mm spoon bevel at nose (0–7 mm at tail), inspired by surfboard hull geometry to reduce friction at tips and maximize float in deep powder
Shape Tech	Boltless Bridge: eliminates split clip hardware from the base by profiling a thicker woodcore under the clips, improving torsional response and delivering a stronger connection to the split clips · Low Traction Tech: minimal sidecut serrations tuned for directional powder riding
Split Clips	Karakoram Ultra Clips 2.0: lighter and lower-profile than 1.0, adjustable, superior clamping force · Karakoram Tip-Lock Tip Clips 2.0: single-lever locking system, stays tight throughout the season
