Jones Snowboards

Howler Snowboard - 2026 - Men's

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I’ve been riding the Howler when I want something that holds strong on steep terrain but still lets me get creative. The camber profile is powerful and precise, and the Koroyd tech keeps the board damp without adding weight. It feels locked in on big lines but playful enough to boost side hits or stomp spins."

When we’re eyeing steep faces and technical terrain, the Jones Howler Snowboard delivers the confidence we need to ride hard and stay creative. Built in collaboration with Victor De Le Rue and Elena Hight, this freeride-focused directional deck blends stability, float, and playfulness, making the mountain feel like a personal canvas. With its high-power camber profile, the Howler bites into hardpack for secure edge hold and loads energy for explosive pop, while the subtle taper and 3D Contour Base keep powder runs smooth and surfy.

The construction is every bit as impressive as its ride. Jones equips the Howler with an advanced Power Core combining bamboo, Paulownia, and Poplar for lightweight durability and enhanced pop. Koroyd inserts add vibration absorption while trimming tip weight, making turn initiation smooth and effortless. A triax fiberglass layup ensures precise control, while BComp Carbon/Flax stringers balance powerful energy return with damp, eco-minded performance. Add in the sintered 8000 base for long-lasting speed and a premium bio-plastic topsheet, and the result is a freeride snowboard that’s as progressive in build as it is in performance.
