The 2026 Jones Men's Flagship Pro is the ultimate freeride board for expert riders. With its stiff construction and directional shape, this board is ready to take on the most challenging terrain at high speeds. The High 3D Contour Base and Traction Tech edges provide effortless turns and superior edge control, while the tapered shape offers unbeatable float in powder. This board isn't for the faint of heart and once you rip this board down the mountain you will see why.
Board Type: Freeride-Powder
Freeride snowboards are built for steeper, off-piste terrain. These boards are ideal for aggressive riding and usually for more advanced riders.
Powder snowboards are designed for deep snow. Generally these boards feature a directional shape with a tapered tail for better float and ease of riding.
Flex: 10/10 (1=soft, 10=stiff)
Stiff snowboards are precise, responsive, and built for advanced riders tackling high speeds, steep terrain, or icy conditions. They deliver powerful turns, excellent edge hold, and enhanced stability, especially during aggressive riding.
Ability Level: Advanced
Advanced snowboards are stiffer and more responsive, designed for high-speed control, precision riding, and handling challenging terrain or tricks.
Shape: Tapered Directional with High 3D Contour Base
A tapered directional snowboard features a shape where the tail is narrower than the nose, providing enhanced control and stability in deeper snow. This design improves floatation in powder and allows for smoother turns, making it ideal for freeride and backcountry riding. While it excels in one direction, the taper helps the board naturally guide you through challenging conditions.

Camber Type: Directional Camber/Rocker
Jones' Directional Camber/Rocker profile incorporates camber throughout the body of the board with rocker in the nose. This keeps the board nice and responsive and powerful while enhancing float and manoeuvrability in deep snow, perfect for freeriding or in powder.
Width: Standard, Wide
Standard width boards deliver exceptional edge-to-edge quickness and responsiveness while providing enough platform space for riders with average boot sizes.
Wide boards are for those with large boot sizes and provide extra flotation, reduced drag, and never feel clunky or cumbersome underfoot.
Inserts: 2x4 Inserts
These offer a tighter hole pattern, allowing for more precise stance adjustments. They're common on modern boards and ideal for riders who want fine-tuned positioning and can be used with any binding with a standard or mini disk.
Board Construction
Topsheet: Ash Wood Veneer Topsheet
Jones' Ash Wood Veneer Topsheet is made of a lightweight and damp Ash that eliminates edge chatter and distributes flex for better torsional stiffness.
Laminate: Fusion Carbon with Bio Resin
Jones' exclusive ultralight design uses carbon fiber and fiberglass from tip to tail, cutting weight while keeping the ride strong, responsive, and high-performing.
This plant based resin is more environmentally friendly than traditional petroleum based epoxy that has unmatched bonding properties for increased performance and less weight.
Core: Power Core
The Power Core is a three species wood core made of Bamboo, Paulownia, and Poplar. The Bamboo stringers add extra durability, pop, and torsional stiffness, while the Paulownia and Poplar keeps it lightweight, poppy, and stable.
Sidewall: Recycled ABS Sidewalls
Jones makes their sidewalls out of a recycled ABS material with a round finish. This increases durability by deflecting impact away from the sidewall preventing chipping and cracks.
Edge: Recycled Edges
Made of recycled German steel, these bombproof edges are made to be the strongest and longest lasting on the market.
Base: Ultra Base
Jones' exclusive sintered base, enhanced with carbon for top-tier speed and wax absorption. Pre-loaded with multiple wax types for a smooth, fast ride right out of the shop.
Additional Features:
Jones adds an extra set of inserts for a setback stance to make the deepest of powder easier to ride in.
All Jones board come detuned in the tip and tail and ready to ride from the factory.
All Jones boards are factory waxed with a natural wax, ready to ride as soon as you hit the mountain.
By overbuilding snowboards, Jones use a process in the factory to ‘break in’ the board to mimic 20 days ridden.
Traction Tech enhances edge grip with strategically placed contact points, giving your board a firm, reliable hold on the snow—just like a serrated knife.
Inspired by surfboard design, 3D Contour Bases reduce tip drag for effortless turns, better glide, and enhanced float—so you can ride faster and with more flow.
