No need to disappear into the desert on a vision quest; just strap into the Jones Ultra Mind Expander Snowboard for an afternoon and throw the doors of perception wide open. Blending a directional shape with 3D Contour Base 3.0 and a smooth rocker profile designed by legendary surf shaper Chris Christenson, this elite level charger exists at the hallowed intersection of burly freeride, creative freestyle, and good old fashioned pow-surfing. Built with Jones premium Ultra construction for durability and top-end capability, the Ultra Mind Expander will have you looking at the mountain from a whole new perspective. In the latest model the insert packs have been moved forward 20mm to give options for a more centered stance and added power at the end of a carve.
Christenson Surf Camber / Rocker – Uprise in the big floaty nose and at the tail end helps to keep you above the soft stuff with easy turn initiation. Camber in the middle provides the power and pop you need for responsive snowboarding.
Directional Flex Pattern
Forever Flex – All Jones boards are broken in using specialized machinery that mimics extreme riding use to help stabilize the flex and rocker profile of a board for it's lifetime.
Flex Rating – 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
3D Contour Base 3.0 – Freeride focused 3D Contour Base featuring a 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and 0 - 7mm of spoon bevel in the tail. Spoon bevel starts at the rocker point.
Progressive Sidecut – At the far ends of the sidecut, the radius is incrementally increased as the edge reaches the contact point. Gradually increasing the sidecut radius towards the contact point delivers smoother turn initiation and exit as the edge tracks in and out of the snow with a less abrupt transition.
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
FSC™ Power Core – Triple-density full wood core featuring hardwood bamboo stringers for added pop and durability plus paulownia for weight savings.
V-Core – Boards with V-Cores are slightly softer in the very center of the board for improved manouverability and stiffer through the tip and tail for stability and pop.
Ultra Construction – The Ultra series is the redefinition of what it takes to build a snowboard. Jones Ultra boards combine innovative construction techniques with premium materials for revolutionary results.
Triax Fiberglass – Multi-axis, stitched fiberglass laminate that offers a precise and responsive ride in any terrain or snow conditions.
Power Sustainable Basalt Stringers – Sustainable stringers made with 100% natural fibers. Basalt stringers improve torsional response and transfer power from under your feet to the tips of the board to help eliminate nose and tail chatter.
Recycled ABS – ABS plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. Jones improves the sustainability of their snowboards by using only recycled plastic.
Sintered 9900 Base – Sintered Ultra High Molecular Weight polyethylene with carbon additives.
Flip Flop Base – Flip-Flop bases improve board sustainability by reducing p-tex waste.
Traction Tech 3.0 – Traction Tech 3.0 features three bumps per edge (front binding, board center, back binding). The middle bump is slightly bigger than the outside bumps for better grip.
Oversized Recycled Edges – All Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.
FSC™ Ash Veneer – Thin wood veneer layer that functions as both a protective topsheet and a global reinforcement layer. The thin wood stringers that make up the wood topsheet provide even flex and suck up chatter from uneven snow conditions.
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 co-products or waste products of other plant-based industrial processes. Producing Super Sap requires 33% less greenhouse gas emissions than conventional epoxy.
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.
Wend Natural Wax – Jones boards are ready to shred straight out of the shop and are factory waxed with WEND natural wax.

If your riding style includes words like "buck wild" and "puckered", you'll want to check out the Jones Apollo Snowboard Bindings. These puppies are loaded with Flax Carbon reinforcement for maximum response while maintaining a nimble, lightweight feel. The stiffer flex is perfect for riders pushing the limit in serious terrain, but it's easy to switch out the ankle straps and bushings for a slightly surfier feel if that's your jam. Whether you're pinning steeps and hucking meat or wiggling some low angle hippy pow, the Jones Apollo Snowboard Bindings will help you shoot for the moon.
Flex Rating – 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Response Tri-Foam Foot Pillow – Premium full length foam footbed made with three different densities of EVA foam. The heel and toe are soft for max comfort, the center is mid-stiff for precise response and the bottom of the footbed is stiff for solid support.
Carbon Reinforced Hanger 3.0 – Binding hanger design featuring a wider bushing footprint that’s closer to the edges for enhanced board connection and faster energy transfer. The Hanger 3.0 is also lighter weight and has a lower inner lateral wall for better ankle mobility and high volume boot fit. Nylon reinforced with 30% Recycled Carbon Fiber.
Flushcup Technology
Asym Flax/Carbon Wide-back – Designed for maximum reponse. Flax/Carbon composite highback with extended width upper section for improved toe-side turn response. Made from Flax and 3K Carbon fiber.
Asymmetrical Shape Follows Leg Angles
Extended Upper Wing for Improved Turn Response
Tool-Less Forward Lean Adjustment
Highback Flex – 9 (1 Soft - 10 Stiff)
Power Spine Ankle Straps – Two part molded ankle strap with a wider bottom section for flexible comfort and a stiffer center spine for unmatched response. Flip-It Strap compatible (Surf mode vs Freeride mode).
3D Flex Fit 2.0 Toe Straps – 3D Flex Fit 2.0 toe straps dynamically stretch to fit any shape boot. The new minimalist design is even lower profile and every bit as comfortable, durable and responsive as the original design.
Intelligent Straps – Hinge connectors keep your ankle strap out of the way when you step in to strap in, and curved ladders make it easy to line up the buckle and quickly ratchet down.
Tool-Less Strap Adjustment
Hinge Connector Strap Attachment + Pre-Curved Ladders
Asymmetrical Buckles – Bombproof buckles made from aircraft-grade alloy featuring ultra-strong levers and springs. Triple action ratchet design increase speed of entry and release.
Freeride Mode – Position the wide half of the strap above the buckle for more lateral support and board response. Use Hard Bushings for maximum response.
Surf Mode – Position the wide half of the strap below the buckle for solid heel support but more ankle flexibility for getting loose. Use Soft Bushings for a looser, more dynamic surf feel.
Included Bushings – Hard - All Mountain / Freeride Mode
Skate Tech – The components of the SkateTech design mimic the function of a skateboard truck. The “Hanger” acts as a lever that transfers energy input from the straps to the “Bushings” and onto the board edges. The “Kingpin” acts as the fulcrum for the “Hanger” and magnifies the energy transfer through leverage. Traditional bindings lose energy when the baseplate flexes and bends unevenly. The energy loss forces you to crank your straps tighter and ride with more forward lean to gain the same control. Uneven pressure and tight straps lead to more foot fatigue and pain. By evenly pivoting over the “Post”, the middle of your board flexes more uniformly and your energy inputs are focused directly on your edge. Your feet stay more relaxed and more comfortable because the bindings transfer power to the board with less work.
