The Backcountry Surf Slasher
The Jones Storm Chaser Split 2026 is a powder-hungry swallowtail built to surf frozen waves and float through snorkel-deep snow. Designed by legendary surf shaper Chris Christenson, this splitboard is engineered for effortless glide in low-angle terrain and bottomless powder. The high-volume shape and Surf Camber profile pop the nose up naturally, keeping you riding high no matter how deep it gets. Whether you’re slashing tree runs, navigating mellow backcountry meadows, or dropping pillows, the Storm Chaser Split delivers the ultimate surfy ride. The 3D Contour Base 3.0 enhances fluid turn initiation, while Inner and Outer Traction Tech 2.0 edges provide added grip when conditions firm up. With a Boltless Bridge and Karakoram Ultra Clips 2.0, this board locks up tight for a solid ride in any backcountry conditions. If you're looking for a dedicated pow split to complete your quiver, this is it.
