Détails

The Carbon Flagship is a seriously stiff, competition-ready freeride gun that crushes terrain unlike any board you’ve ever experienced. It’s built to be chatter free at any speed and stable enough to stomp airs bigger than your legs can handle. For 2017 Jones has re-shaped and re-designed the Carbon Flagship using 2X Textreme Carbon instead of a traditional topsheet and a Spoon 3.0 Nose and Tail. The new version is every bit as powerful and responsive, but even faster edge-to-edge thanks to the Spoon tips and a new progressive sidecut profile that eliminates friction at the contact points.

PROFILE

  • Directional rocker

A hybrid rocker/camber flex pattern defined by more tip rocker then tail rocker and camber between the bindings. The rockered tip floats the board’s nose and improves maneuverability while the camber underfoot provides edge hold and response. A slightly rockered tail maintains the power and stability of a traditional board but helps keep the tail catch-free initiating turns and landing switch.

  • Spoon 3.0

Freeride focused 3D-base contours featuring an even balance of 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and 7mm of spoon bevel in the tail. Spoon bevel starts at the rocker point.

  • Blunt nose

How a board glides in powder, crust, corn or any snow more than an inch deep, is dictated by it’s front contact point and just past it. Next time you are in soft snow watch how much snow comes over the corner of the nose near the contact point. The billowing snow coming out from behind the tip means you are plowing through it which is obviously slowing you down. By adding a blunt nose you get the float benefits of a much longer nose without the ‘snow plow’ rounded tip and it’s extra swing weight

CORE

  • PowerCore

Triple-density full wood core featuring hardwood bamboo stringers for added pop and durability plus paulownia for weight savings.

  • 2X TexTreme Construcion

TeXtreme achieves a weight savings of about 20-30% compared to conventional carbon fiber. With a triple-density core featuring stringers of ISOCORE - a foam/fiberglass composite that’s as stiff as any wood but 15% lighter. Hardwood beech stringers are positioned along the edges for added durability.

  • 2x TeXtreme Carbon

Specially designed carbon fiber (12k non crimp fabric) that is podium proven in the America’s Cup and Tour De France. TeXtreme achieves a weight savings of about 20-30% compared to conventional carbon fiber.

BASE

  • Sintered Ultra Base

World Cup proven race base made from Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) modified with special Fluoro and Paraffin based additives for better glide and increased durability. ULTRA base is harder and faster than any other sintered base.

  • Wend Natural Wax

Jones boards are ready to shred straight out of the shop and are factory waxed with WEND natural wax.

  • Flip Flop Base
Producing two or more base color options minimizes p-tex waste. Order may be filled with either color. Color does not vary by size.

TOPSHEET

  • Fusion Tech

Jones exclusive production process allows traditional topsheet layer to be replaced with ultra durable epoxy layer saving weight and material.

SIDEWALL

  • Wrap Tip Construction

Full wood core to the tip and ABS sidewall completely wraps around tip for added response and durability.

  • Mellow Magne-traction

Like a serrated knife slicing into the snow, Magne-Traction improves your edge grip by adding multiple contact points along the running length of your board.

“Magne-Traction is a critical feature for rockered boards. Rocker improves glide in mixed conditions, but the decreased edge contact makes it harder to really lock into your turns and hold a solid edge. Magne-Traction is crucial to ofset the edge drift of rocker.” - Jeremy Jones

  • Progressive Sidecut

At the far ends of the sidecut, the radius is incrementally increased as the edge reaches the contact point. Gradually increasing the side cut radius towards the contact point delivers smoother turn initiation and exit as the edge tracks in and out of the snow with a less abrupt transition.

  • Oversized recycled edges

All Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.

  • Recycled ABS

ABS Plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. We improve the sustainability of our snowboards by using only recycled plastic.

  • Recycled Rubber

Rubber edge dampening material is made with 100% recycled material.

  • Factory Tuned

All Jones Snowboards are factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can go right from the shop to the mountain.
