Expand Your Ride. Expand Your Mind.
Break free from conventional lines with the Jones Mind Expander, a boundary-blurring all-mountain snowboard designed to fuel your creativity and float through deep days. Engineered in collaboration with surf shaper Chris Christenson, the Mind Expander combines a surf-inspired shape with modern camber and responsive construction — giving you playful flow in powder, agile turning on trees, and all-mountain performance that opens up entirely new terrain possibilities.
Key Features
Rocker Type
Christenson Surf Camber / Rocker – Uplifted nose and tail for effortless float in pow, with camber underfoot to deliver pop, edge hold, and precise control. Surfy where you want it, powerful where you need it.
Flex
Flex Rating: 3/5 – Playful but Capable
Directional Flex Pattern – Softer nose, stiffer tail for optimal float and drive.
Forever Flex – Stabilizes flex and rocker profile for long-term performance.
Shape & Contour
Directional Shape with Blunt Nose – Maximize float and reduce drag with a blunt, powder-efficient nose and shorter, agile tail.
Progressive Sidecut – Smooth turn initiation and exit thanks to an evolving sidecut radius that tracks predictably through all snow types.
3D Contour Base – Subtle spoon shaping in the nose and tail reduces edge catch and enhances float without compromising edge hold.
Construction
FSC™ Bamboo Surf Core – Triple-density paulownia and bamboo wood core with bamboo stringers placed at the sidecut for energetic edge response and stability.
Biax Fiberglass – Forgiving yet snappy, ideal for riders who like a surfy feel but still want energy in their carves.
Basalt Stringers – 100% natural, basalt fiber stringers increase torsional response and dampen chatter for a smoother, more stable ride.
Recycled ABS Sidewalls – Sustainable, impact-resistant construction for season-after-season durability.
Base, Edges & Topsheet
Sintered 8000 Base – Ultra-tough and fast, made with UHMW polyethylene and carbon for top-tier performance in all snow conditions.
Oversized Recycled Steel Edges – Added durability and better grip, made from sustainable materials.
Traction Tech 2.0 – Multiple edge contact points bite into icy slopes for better edge control and confidence.
ECO-Plastic Topsheet – Made from castor beans, this ultralight topsheet repels snow and resists scratches while staying environmentally friendly.
