Construction and Materials

Here’s where the Jones Women’s Flagship really stands out; the dampening – delivered chiefly by the wood veneer topsheet – is insane. If you’ve ever felt shaken up in chopped-up crud, you weren’t on a Flagship. The hard bamboo core additives and triax fibreglass keep this thing set to its task, giving you licence to push the boat out a bit further (which, thanks to the quality of the sintered base, is not hard to do).

The resulting creation isn’t exactly light, but neither is it what you would call heavy. Instead it pulls off the neat trick of feeling just substantial enough to smash through whatever comes across your path.
