Construction and Materials

Like Iron Man’s suits, the Jones Project X takes big leaps forward in tech with each iteration. The big addition for 2021/22 is Koroyd, an aerospace-grade material that’s been laid into the nose of the board in order to seriously increase dampening.

Elsewhere it’s got plenty more of Jones’ established top tech, including carbon stringers that let you ollie higher and react quicker. The core is also lighter, and the base is faster – not just compared to the Stratos, but to just about anything that you’re likely to encounter this side of Stark Industries.

Roundup

Yes, this is a frankly eye-watering amount of money to spend on a snowboard – but even if you can’t afford a Jones Project X, keep it on your radar. After all, what seems premium today will eventually become the industry standard, and the Jones design team certainly know what they’re doing when it comes to raising the bar. If you //can// buy one, we wish you the best with it – just make sure you buy a board lock too…
