Camber Profile
- Freeride CamRock: Camber underfoot provides powerful edge hold, precise response, and confidence at speed, while an extended nose rocker and shorter tail rocker add float and maneuverability in powder.

Flex
- 8/10 (Stiff): A powerful flex designed for stability, precise response, and confident riding across demanding all-mountain terrain.
- Directional Flex: A directional flex pattern supports the Project X's freeride-focused shape and performance.
- V-Core: Slightly softer through the center of the board for improved maneuverability, with increased stiffness through the tip and tail for stability and pop.
- Forever Flex: Jones stabilizes the board's flex and profile during manufacturing to help maintain a consistent ride throughout its lifetime.
Shape
- Directional Shape: Freeride-focused geometry designed for confident control, float, and performance across varied terrain and snow conditions.
- 10mm Taper: A narrower tail helps it sink naturally in deeper snow, improving nose float and making powder turns quicker and easier.
- 3D Contour Base 3.0: Freeride-focused 3D shaping uses 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and 0–7mm in the tail, beginning at the rocker points for smoother turn initiation and improved float.

- Blunt Nose: Provides the float benefits of a longer nose while reducing unnecessary tip length and swing weight.
- Progressive Sidecut: Gradually increases the sidecut radius toward the contact points for smoother turn initiation and exit.
Core
- Fusion Core: Jones' lightest wood core uses primarily Paulownia with strategically positioned Poplar for improved durability and response while keeping weight exceptionally low.
- Koroyd®: Lightweight engineered core material developed from aerospace technology that absorbs vibration and adds response with minimal added weight, helping improve control and reduce overall board weight.
Laminates & Construction
- Fusion Carbon: An advanced two-stage layup process designed to reduce board weight while improving durability.
- Carbon Stringers: Add torsional stiffness, response, and pop while helping stabilize the board's flex profile over its lifetime.
- Ultra Construction: Jones' premium construction combines advanced manufacturing techniques with lightweight, high-performance materials to maximize performance while minimizing weight.
Base
- Ultra Base: Jones' premium base material is engineered for increased wax absorption, glide in warm and wet snow, and improved durability. It also receives an increased factory wax application using multiple wax types for performance across a wider range of conditions.
Additional Features
- Ultralight ECO-Topsheet: Lightweight, durable, and damp topsheet material made from organic plant material.
- Recycled ABS Sidewalls: Uses recycled ABS plastic to reduce the environmental impact of the board's construction.
- Recycled Edges: Built with recycled steel edges.
- Bio Resin: Bio-based renewable epoxy reduces greenhouse gas emissions compared with conventional petroleum-based epoxy.
- WEND Natural Wax: Factory waxed with WEND natural wax and ready to ride out of the shop.
- Factory Tuned: Factory de-tuned at the tip and tail for a ready-to-ride finish.
Mounting System
- 2x4 Inserts: Standard insert pattern offering broad stance adjustability and compatibility with most modern snowboard bindings.
Warranty
- 3-Year Warranty: Backed by Jones with a three-year warranty.
