THe Ne W NAMe FOR THe Be ST Se LLING e XPLORe R SPLITThe Frontier Split is the new name for the best selling explorer Split. Retaining the same fully directional freeride shape as last years board, the new Frontier Split is the perfect choice for riders who are looking for a high performing freeride inspired splitboard, but who also want a more relaxing, easy-going ride. Utilising a floaty, freeride nose for pow crushing & crud busting the Frontier Splits secret weapon is its more versatile freestyle tail. This ensures that no matter if you’re popping pillows, or stomping cliff drops it’s going to give you all the control & feel you could ever need. With Karakorum K Clips as standard & featuring quick tension skin clip cut outs, the Frontier Split is the perfect introduction to high-performance split boards. Rider Style Beginner to expert riders looking for a versatile split board that’s going to perform in all conditions. Shape Overview The Frontiers Splits directional shape has been specially engineered to create a versatile ride across the whole mountain. The innovative Blunt Nose Profile allows the nose to rise quickly in deep snow, while the Traction Tech 2.0 on both the outer & inner edges adds multiple contact points to the sidecut. These ensure that the Frontier feels locked in on even the iciest descents whilst still giving a reassuring & safe feel on even the trickiest of skin tracks. Profile The freeride inspired Directional Rocker combines an extended rocker zone at the nose with camber between the feet & a shorter rocker at the tail. This profile allows the board to float effortlessly in deep snow while still delivering a responsive & dynamic ride on hardpack terrain. That shorter rocker at the tail helps create a more responsive & stable feel at the back of the board while still retaining a more playful catch-free ride. Construction Heading up the Frontier Split’s high-quality construction is the durable yet lightweight Classic Core. This premium poplar wood core delivers the perfect balance of performance, pop, flex & strength & is the ideal foundation for the Frontiers versatile ride. Now as Jones wanted to keep this board a little bit more playful, it utilises softer flexing Bi-Ax glass structural layers. These allow the board to flex both lengthwise & torsionally a little easier & are crucial to delivering that unique, playful freeride feel. To ensure the Frontier Split delivers optimum performance Jones use the high-end Karakorum K-Clips with tip & tail hooks. These adjustable tension K-clips increase the boards torsional stiffness & offer a superior connection compared to simple interlocking clips. Base To ensure the Frontier delivers the optimum performance, it utilises a super-fast 7000 Sintered base. Factory waxed with Wend Natural wax it provides excellent glide in all conditions.
