The reason it is so comfortable in the snow is due to its Directional Rocker profile, with a very pronounced front rocker and a nose that is wider than the tail, which allows the nose to glide over the fresh snow. While the lower rocker in the back, the slight swallow-tail and the shift of your centre of gravity backwards push the tail into the snow allowing for unparalleled agility. On the other hand, the 3D Base Contour 3.0 technology curves the tips upwards, which further increases the feeling of flying over the snow.

Please note that the Hovercraft snowboard is shaped to be 6-8 cm shorter than your usual board.
- Camber:
Directional Rocker: classic camber with a long edge and two short, symmetrical rockers. The front rocker starts earlier and is more pronounced than the back to lighten the nose in the powder snow and improve the lift and flow. The shorter, weaker rear rocker anchors the tail and provides excellent responsiveness.
- Shape:
3D Contour Base 3.0: convex base The edges are raised 7mm at the ends, 4mm more than the centre of the board.
Directional: Nose slightly wider than the tail and with the supports shifted backwards for excellent lift and responsiveness in fresh snow.
Blunt Nose: a curved nose to improve the glide and reduce the grip of the board to the snow and therefore reduces the "ploughing" effect of the nose.
Traction Tech 3.0: Strategically placed serrated edges to counteract the negative effect of the rocker and increase the edge grip on the snow.
Progressive Sidecut: At each end of the edges, the curve radius is increased at the contact points. This larger radius ensures a smoother ride when entering and exiting turns.
- Flex: 7/10 Rigide Flex.
- Core:
Classic Core: Premium poplar wood core ensures a good pop and a constant and durable flex.
- Topsheet:
Biax Fibreglass: fiberglass layer applied in multiple directions for a board that is precise and responsive on any terrain and any snow.
Engineered Wood Veneer TopSheet: Jones' newest innovation is to treat the wood with a special varnish that is environmentally friendly and absorbs vibrations.
Laser Engraved Graphics: no ink is used on the topsheet, all logos and inscriptions are laser engraved to be more environmentally friendly. The

Le shape vous fait hésiter ? Surtout pas, c'est ce qui fait sa grande force. Agressive et stable en poudreuse, l'Hovercraft est aussi facile à manier sur la piste et sur neige difficile.
Difficile de croire que cette planche nous emmènera partout avec ce shape très freeride, mais elle se révèle bien polyvalente : une portance et une facilité en poudreuse déconcertante, sans parler de l'accroche sur piste et sur neige trafollée !
