I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Hovercraft Splitboard - 2023

Description

Why We Love The Jones Snowboards Hovercraft Splitboard:

Experience the ultimate performance of the Jones Snowboards Hovercraft Splitboard on deep powder days. It effortlessly delivers incredible floatation, smooth and seamless turns, and precise control even on icy steeps.

Designed with a tapered directional shape, the Hovercraft Splitboard allows the rear end to sink in powder while the enormous nose glides weightlessly across the snow.

Enjoy the unbeatable performance in powder with the extended nose rocker that prevents submergence, whether you're taking slow turns or charging down bigger lines.

For less-than-ideal conditions, the responsive camber ensures stable, aggressive carves and enhances grip on firm snow.

Built with eco-friendly materials, the Hovercraft Splitboard features an FSC-engineered veneer topsheet for a smooth feel and a natural look. The recycled rounded ABS sidewalls further enhance durability.
