Looking for a snowboard that is fast and carve's like a dream? Its the Jones Freecarver. Andrew Miller is Jones’ staff photographer. Miller’s Signature Series is a quiver of his favorite boards in the Jones line featuring his snow photos as the topsheet graphics. This limited edition series includes the Freecarver 9000s, Stratos and Storm Chaser. The materials, construction and flex of Miller’s Signature Series boards is the same as the standard board models.
The new Freecarver 9000s is a directional freeride board designed to help you carve the fastest, deepest turns of your life. Featuring a mid-stiff flex, full camber profile and a tapered directional shape, the Freecarver 9000s blends design elements from race, boardercross and freeride boards into a high powered, big turn trenching machine. The Freecarver 9000s has a long, nine meter side cut radius and long effective edge. This is a board you can lay on rail and lock into huge GS turns like a freight train barrelling down the tracks. The Freecarver 9000s is built with an Ash veneer topsheet and Triax fiberglass that suck up chatter, a 3D Contour Base 2.0 that improves turn initiation and a hyper fast and durable Sintered 9000 base.
SPECS
Terrian: Carving / Freeride
Board Shape: Directional
Flex: 7/10
Camber: True Camber
3D Contour Base 2.0:
Freeride focused 3D-base contours featuring an even balance of 7mm of spoon bevel in the nose and 7mm of spoon bevel in the tail. Spoon bevel starts at the rocker point.
Base:
Sintered 9000 Base - New super durable material made from Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMW-PE) and carbon. Base is easily repairable, highly wax absorbent and wicked fast.
Core:
Power Core - Triple-density full wood core featuring hardwood bamboo stringers for added pop and durability plus paulownia for weight savings
Biax fiberglass - A dual-direction, dual-layer, stitched fiberglass laminate that provides a fun, forgiving and snappy ride.
Other Features:
Tapered - 9mm
Bio Resin - Bio Resin is a bio-based epoxy made with 27% plant-based carbon instead of petroleum-based carbon. The organic raw materials used to make bio-resin are co-products or waste products of plant-based industrial processes. Bio-resin requires 33% less greenhouse gas emissions to produce than conventional epoxy.
Oversized recycled edges - All Jones boards are made with oversized recycled steel edges for added durability and improved production sustainability.
Recycled ABS Sidewalls - ABS Plastic is one of the necessary evils of snowboard production. We improve the sustainability of our snowboards by using only recycled plastic.
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.
Forever Flex - Forever Flex is a new manufacturing process that helps stabilise the flex and rocker of a board for its lifetime.
Traction Tech 1.0 - Like a serrated knife slicing into the snow, Traction Tech improves your edge grip by adding multiple contact points along the running length of your board.
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.
