With the Jones Solution freeride splitboard you will reach your untouched lines just beside the resort or you go further into the backcountry to explore the heart of the wilderness. It is the twin to the Jones Flagship solid board. The solution has been tested day in and day out by Jeremy, Forrest, and Ryland, while they shot the movies Deeper and Further.
The Split Solution has a gentle Magne Traction and a directional rocker shape, combined with the blunt nose and the easy tail these features are a good cocktail for a lot of float, good edge control and fun rides, even switch. If you need an allconditions backcountry splitboard, the solution is the right solution.
Shape
The Solution has a directional shape which increases speed and float. In deep snow the blunted nose makes sure less snow comes over the sides of your nose than it would with a regular shape. This means you get the benefits of a longer traditional nose, without the extra weight. Wrap Tip construction is a wood core till the tip and ABS sidewalls completely wrapped around the tip for increased response and durability. A mellow magne-traction along the inner and outside edges will improve your edge grip when touring and shredding by adding multiple contact points.
Profile
The directional rocker profile has camber under foot with a larger rocker area in the nose than in the tail. The float of the rockered nose improves maneuverability while the camber underfoot provides edge hold and response. The slight rockered tail maintains power and stability but helps keep the tail catch-free when initiating turns and landing switch.
Flex
A stiff flex will ensure very precise control. New in this 2017-18 version: Carbon split Stringers give the Solution more pop and response.
Construction
The ULTRA Split-Core keeps the board light on your feet going up and down. Quick tension tail offers a Built-in climbing skin tension system using a pre-cut notch that eliminates the need for a traditional skin tail clip.
It is supplied with connectors and Karakoram clips. So if you have found the right binding or you are splitting with the Voile slider tracks, you just need good splitboard skins, and the safety stuff to go exploring.
Shape and profile remain in the 2017-18 version the same, but the design goes with the time.
