Jones

Aviator 2016

When you're touring, the snow conditions can change dramatically from powder to mank to corn, sometimes in the duration of a single run. That's why a board that does it all like the Jones Aviator Splitboard is such a huge asset in the backcountry, and why it's spawned a huge following. This directional twin butters and switches it up nicely, but also facilitates a versatile range of turn shapes and lets you swivel on a dime without worrying about hooking an edge. Like other Jones splits, the Aviator features inner and outer Mellow Magne-Traction™ to let you get a grip on icy sidehills, plus it comes with premium Karakoram™ hardware so it rides just like your solid (non-split) board.
