There were stacks of new split boards showing at the 2013 SIA Show<\/a><\/strong> in Denver, but one of the lightest, smoothest and best looking was the new Jones Snowboards<\/a><\/strong> Ultracraft. Here’s what Jeremy Jones<\/strong> is saying about it:<\/p>\n

\u201cMaking lighter split boards without sacrificing performance and durability has been on my radar since launching our original line four years ago,\u201d says Jones. \u201cThis is the answer. The Ultracraft\u2019s design process and exclusive new lightweight mix of high tech materials are game changers in split board construction. We\u2019re stoked to launch the Ultracraft as the first evolution of limited edition products sold only in our EPICenter shops around the world.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

We held it today and it looks amazing. As it should for $1,200. For the official word and all the details follow the jump..\"Jones<\/a><\/p>\n

New Jones Ultracraft Splitboard Fuses Incredible Lightweight Construction with Durability and Performance<\/strong><\/p>\n

Ultracraft Set to Sell Fall 2013 in Jones Authorized EPICenter Shops<\/p>\n

Truckee, CA (January 31, 2013) \u2013 After three years of backcountry development and testing, Jones Snowboards is psyched to unleash their latest split board innovation at SIA, the Ultracraft. Designed to push riders higher and faster into their mountain playgrounds, the Ultracraft is the pinnacle of fusion between lightweight core construction materials, durability and performance split board technologies. Giving consumers a glimpse into the Jones crystal ball, the new Ultracraft 156 split will be sold exclusively by Jones authorized EPICenter shops worldwide starting Fall 2013.<\/p>\n

Bred from hours of testing and prototyping by Jones athletes and engineers, the Ultracraft is the most advanced split board ever to hit the market. Featuring the same shape as the revolutionary Hovercraft, the Ultracraft is powered and constructed around a top secret, ultra-light core technology exclusive to Jones, reducing overall weight by 25% compared to the Hovercraft Split. Unlike traditional splits designed around a solid board platform, then sliced down the middle, the Ultracraft is one of the first split boards designed as individual split skis before being transformed into a solid board.<\/p>\n

\u201cMaking lighter split boards without sacrificing performance and durability has been on my radar since launching our original line four years ago,\u201d says Jeremy Jones, Founder of Jones Snowboards. \u201cThis is the answer. The Ultracraft\u2019s design process and exclusive new lightweight mix of high tech materials are game changers in split board construction. We\u2019re stoked to launch the Ultracraft as the first evolution of limited edition products sold only in our EPICenter shops around the world.\u201d<\/p>\n
