The Jones Aviator 2.0 is an all-mountain snowboard aimed at advanced riders who want one board for resort laps, hardpack carving and softer snow. Its Directional Twin design strikes a balance between playful switch riding and reliable float in powder, making it a versatile choice for varied terrain.
With a Directional Twin shape, the Aviator 2.0 gives a slightly longer nose for better flotation in deeper snow while maintaining symmetry for riding switch. The True Camber profile ensures continuous edge contact and pop by arching upward between the bindings, and the flex rating of 7 provides a blend of stability at speed and responsive control without feeling overly stiff.
True Camber refers to a traditional camber shape where the board curves upward between the feet, storing energy that releases as lively snap on takeoffs and consistent grip through turns. The flex scale runs from 1 (soft) to 10 (stiff), so a 7 puts this board toward the stiffer side—helping it stay steady at higher speeds and hold an edge under pressure while still offering enough liveliness for playful maneuvers.

Jones says about the Aviator 2.0
The Aviator 2.0 is a hard charging directional twin built for expert all-mountain riders who like to rail turns and stomp airs anywhere on the mountain. This Aviator was designed in collaboration with Jones team rider Victor de la Rue and Jimmy Goodman. What sets the Aviator apart is its FULL CAMBER profile. Victor and Jimmy swear by the power of full camber for edging on steeps and landing tricks on the tail. The Aviator also features a 3D Contour Base 2.0, Triax Fiberglass, Carbon/Innegra Reinforcement, an ECO-Plastic topsheet and Traction Tech 3.5 edges. The 3D Contour Base starts after the contact point and helps eliminate edge catch and improve turn fluidity while the Triax fiberglass and Carbon Innegra layer under the Eco-Plastic topsheet offer supreme pop and lightning fast response. The Aviator’s Power Core includes a section of ultralight Koroyd in the nose that absorbs chatter at a fraction of the weight of wood.
