Allee Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 The Jones Snowboards site has been down for over a week, although their Facebook page is still up, and today I saw the announcement on Facebook that Jeremy Jones has gone to Nitro. I'm wondering where that leaves Jones Snowboards ... and whether I should buy that Hovercraft while I still have the chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apex Insider Posted February 18, 2016 Report Share Posted February 18, 2016 Well Jones lost their factory this season when GST closed their doors. http://www.angrysnowboarder.com/the-gst-factory-in-austria-is-closing/ That left Jeremy in the lurch along with a bunch of other brands. I haven't heard if he found a new factory. Ya, you should grab that Hovercraft. Or wait until Bruce comes out with his Coiler powder board.

Allee Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Hahaha, that's tricky!! I was wondering what the legendary backcountry dude would be doing with a B-list brand like Nitro. That explains it!It doesn't explain why the website's still down, but whatever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Gendzwill Posted February 19, 2016 Report Share Posted February 19, 2016 Shop-flexed a Flagship in Whistler, that is a pretty damn stiff freeride deck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
