Jones Women’s Stratos Snowboard 2026

The Jones Women’s Stratos Snowboard 2026 is a hybrid all-mountain freeride board with the body of a directional pow charger and the playful soul of a freestyle deck—built for women who want one board that carves hardpack, floats in deep snow, and still feels lively and energetic all over the mountain.

Versatile All-Terrain Freeride Performance

• Hybrid freeride design: The Women’s Stratos blends a directional freeride shape with a lively, freestyle-inspired flex so you can rail carves, slash powder, and still pop and play on side hits and natural features.
• Directional shape with 10 mm taper: A slightly wider, longer nose and 10 mm of taper help the tail sink and the nose float in soft snow, making deep days easier, faster, and more controlled without sacrificing groomer performance.
• All-conditions confidence: On-piste/all-mountain rating of 8/10 and freeride/powder rating of 10/10 means this board is tuned to handle everything from chalky steeps to tracked-out trees and storm-day blower.

Directional Camber/Rocker & 3D Contour for Float + Grip

• Directional Camber / Rocker profile: Camber between the bindings with more rocker in the nose than the tail gives you powerful edge hold and response underfoot, plus effortless float and easier turn initiation in soft or variable snow.
• High 3D Contour Base 3.0: A freeride-focused 3D base with spooned nose and tail edges reduces edge catches, smooths out turn transitions, and adds extra surfy float in powder without feeling washy on firmer snow.
• Progressive sidecut & directional flex: A progressively tightening sidecut and directional flex pattern (slightly stiffer nose and tail) deliver stability at speed, quick edge-to-edge response, and smooth, confidence-inspiring carves.

High-End Construction with Eco-Minded Materials

• Power Core (bamboo / paulownia / poplar): A triple-density full wood core uses bamboo stringers for pop and torsional stiffness, paulownia to keep the board light and damp, and poplar for a strong, predictable flex.
• Biax fiberglass + BComp Carbon/Flax stringers: Biax glass keeps the ride fun and forgiving, while carbon/flax stringers add powerful snap, absorb chatter, and reduce reliance on traditional carbon-only layups.
• Sintered 8000 base with Flip-Flop graphics: A premium, ultra-fast sintered base that’s highly wax-absorbent, durable, and easy to repair, with Flip-Flop colorways that reduce P-Tex waste at the factory.
• Recycled ABS sidewalls & recycled steel edges: Tough recycled ABS sidewalls and beefy recycled edges boost durability and impact resistance while lowering the board’s environmental footprint.
• Bio Resin & premium topsheet: A bio-based epoxy and a scratch-resistant topsheet are engineered to handle heavy daily use while cutting CO₂ emissions compared to conventional materials.

On-Snow Feel & Rider Profile

• Mid-stiff “happy medium” flex: Rated around 3/5 on Jones’ flex scale (roughly a 7/10 feel), the Stratos is powerful and stable at speed but not punishing, ideal for strong intermediate to expert riders.
• Freestyle x freeride personality: With a freestyle-friendly 5/10 park rating and freeride/powder rating of 10/10, the board is just as happy arcing trenches on groomers as it is surfing through deep tree runs.
• Float Pack inserts & 2 cm setback: A 20 mm stance setback and extra “Float Pack” inserts let you push your stance way back on the deepest days for maximum nose lift and effortless pow riding.

Who It’s For

The Jones Women’s Stratos is for confident intermediate through expert riders who want a one-board quiver with a freeride backbone and a playful edge. If your ideal day includes early-morning groomer carves, mid-day tree laps, and hunting for pow stashes long after a storm, this is the board you’ll keep reaching for.
