Men's splitboards

Freedom tools engineered for long tours, technical climbs and confident descents in the backcountry. All our men's splitboards combine lightweight construction with high-performance, mountain-tested designs, tuned to specific terrain and freeride objectives. 

About men's splitboards

Designed and tested in real backcountry terrain

Since the beginning of Jones, and Jeremy's pioneering backcountry films Deeper, Further and Higher, our splitboards have been inspired by and refined through extensive time in the backcountry and pushing the limits of human-powered freeriding. Riders like Jeremy, Victor de Le Rue and Harry Kearney help us fine-tune every model for efficient touring, stable climbing and confident descents.

How to choose the right men’s splitboard

Select your splitboard based on the terrain you ride and how you tour. Long approaches benefit from lighter, more efficient shapes, while steep lines call for stiffer flex and camber for added control on the descent. For deep powder, volume-shifted shapes and rocker profiles provide extra float.

Advanced tech for efficiency and control

Every splitboard features technologies like 3D Base Contour, Traction Tech and the Bolt-less Bridge to improve skinning efficiency, edge grip and downhill handling. All models also include a notched tail for a perfect fit with our Quick Tension Tail Clip splitboard skins.

Frequently asked questions

What’s the best all-condition, all-terrain men's splitboard?

For the most versatile performance across mixed snow and terrain, check out the Solution, Frontier 2.0 or Stratos splitboards. The Solution – the original splitboard in our line – has remained the best-selling model in the line for over a decade thanks to its exceptional versatility across a range of snow conditions and capable handling in backcountry terrain.

What’s the best splitboard for deep powder?

For deep days, choose the Hovercraft Splitboard or the Storm Chaser Splitboard. Their volume-shifted shapes and surf-inspired rocker profiles deliver effortless float and smooth, playful turns in bottomless snow.

What makes the [ULTRALIGHT] Series unique?

The [ULTRALIGHT] Carbon Construction is designed for riders tackling long tours, big vert and technical objectives where every gram counts. It's designed to optimize efficiency on ascent, and still delivers a powerful, stable and confidence-inspiring ride on the descent. The construction starts with Fusion Carbon, blending carbon fiber and fiberglass for a responsive, damp and precise board feel. Components like Koroyd inserts and our lightest Fusion Core reduce weight without sacrificing control in demanding terrain.

What skins do I need for a splitboard?

All Jones splitboards feature a notched tail for a perfect fit with Quick Tension Tail Clip skins. Jones splitboard skins come pre-cut and ready to use straight out of the box.

Do splitboards ride differently from snowboards?

Modern splitboards ride very similarly to solid snowboards. Jones splitboards use technologies like the Bolt-less Bridge to improve torsional stiffness and board feel, delivering confident, predictable performance on the descent.

What makes Jones splitboards unique?

Jones was founded by Jeremy Jones, one of the world’s most influential splitboarders and a pioneer of modern human-powered freeriding. Since 2019, we’ve pushed splitboard design forward through constant on-snow testing and purposeful innovation. Our boards feature some of the lightest constructions in the backcountry, technologies like the Bolt-less Bridge for improved ride feel, notched tails for Quick Tension Tail Clip skins, and 3D Base Contour for enhanced float and smoother turn initiation.

Do I need special bindings for splitboarding?

Yes. Splitboard bindings are built to transition between tour mode and ride mode and to interface with splitboard hardware. Standard snowboard bindings are not compatible.

What is a splitboard?

A splitboard is a snowboard that separates into two skis for climbing uphill with skins, then reconnects into a snowboard for the descent. It allows you to travel efficiently in the backcountry without lifts.
