Jones Mind Expander 19/20 B-grade

PROFILE

• Christenson surf rocker 

custom tip/tail rocker profile designed by surf shaper chris christenson for the mountain surfer and storm chaser. The nose rocker starts just inside of the front inserts and the tail rocker starts just at the back inserts. When you weight the tail of the board the nose ramps up out of the snow for insane float on the deepest days. These subtle rocker contours match a christenson surfboard rocker profile.

• Blunt Nose

“How a board glides in powder, crust, corn or any snow more than an inch deep, is dictated by it’s front contact point and just past it. Next time you are in soft snow watch how much snow comes over the corner of the nose near the contact point. The billowing snow coming out from behind the tip means you are plowing through it which is obviously slowing you down. By adding a blunt nose you get the float benefits of a much longer nose without the ‘snow plow’ rounded tip and it’s extra swing weight.” - Jeremy Jones

CORE

• Bamboo surf core

Re-designed triple density Bamboo Surf wood core that features primarily paulownia stringers with bamboo stringers positioned in the pocket of the sidecut for better edge response and turn power.

• Carbon web fused

Web Fused Carbon - New carbon stringer pack that blends different widths of carbon matched to the specific needs of the board model. Featured on the surf collection models to eliminate nose vibration and on the Solution splitboard as a reinforcement under the binding. Made in the USA, EXCLUSIVE for Jones.

• Super Sap Bio Resin

All Jones boards are now built with bio-based, renewable epoxy instead of petroleum based epoxy. The raw materials used to make Super Sap Bio-Resin are coproducts or waste products of other plant based industrial processes. Producing Super Sap requires 33% less greenhouse gas emissions than conventional epoxy.

BASE

• Sintered 9900 base

made from ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (uhmw-pe) and carbon. This ultra-fast base is easy to repair thanks to the uhmw-pe.

• Factory tuned

all jones snowboards are factory de-tuned at the tip and tail so you can go right from the shop to the mountain.

TOPSHEET

• Eco-plastic topsheet

Bio-plastic topsheet made from Castor beans featuring a subtle texture for added durability. This eco-material is ultralight, chip/scratch resistant and water/snow repellent (snow sticks less to topsheet)

• Biax fiberglass

a dual-direction, dual-layer, stitched fiberglass laminate that provides a fun, forgiving and snappy ride.

SIDEWALL

• Recycled Rounded ABS

New rounded sidewall finish that improves board durability by protecting topsheet from chipping. Available on all splitboards and surf series models.

• Oversized recycled edge

all jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.

• Traction Tech 1.0

like a serrated knife slicing into the snow, magne-traction improves your edge grip by adding multiple contact points along the running length of your board. Inner and outer edge mellow magne-traction locks in your edges while skinning or shredding.
