The Jones Mens Howler Splitboard 2027
Wilderness Freeride Utility | Surf Inspired Backcountry Charger
Check out the new Jones Mens Howler Splitboard 2027, an aggressive backcountry utility deck built for riders who treat the wilderness like their personal surf break. Blending an all-terrain directional shape with a tapered silhouette and powerful edge tech, this splitboard offers effortless floatation in untouched powder and rock-solid stability when charging variable alpine terrain.
Milo Take
The Milo crew is stoked on the Howler split because it brings a versatile, hard-charging surf feel straight to the skin track. Jones gave this deck a Directional Rocker profile with a healthy dose of camber underfoot, making it an absolute machine when setting an edge on icy touring traverses. Once you transition and drop in, the tapered tail sinks effortlessly into deep snow, driving the wide nose up for seamless float without burning out your back leg. The mid-stiff team flex gives you the backbone needed to stomp landings off wind lips and hold a line through chunder, while remaining nimble enough to quick-turn through tight tree runs. If you want a dependable splitboard that balances uphill efficiency with maximum downhill expression, the Howler delivers in every condition.
Shred Metrics
-
Directional Rocker Profile: Camber underfoot ensures maximum power transfer and skin-track edge bite, paired with an aggressively rockered nose for effortless deep-snow floatation.
-
Tapered Surf Silhouette: A wider nose and slightly narrower tail allow the board to sink naturally in soft snow, giving you effortless steering and rapid turn initiation.
-
Traction Tech Edges: Strategically placed edge bumps along the inner and outer edges provide extra contact points for razor-sharp grip on icy ascents and firm descents.
