By Abigail Scott
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.

Why We Like The Jones Snowboards Hovercraft Splitboard
A favorite of ours for a few reasons, the Jones Hovercraft Splitboard excels on deep days with effortless float, fluid turn initiation, and precise control across icy steeps. A tapered directional shape sinks the rear end in powder, with the gigantic nose weightlessly floating up and across the snow. In less-than-ideal conditions, the responsive camber rails aggressive carves and locks into firm snow. An engineered veneer topsheet gives the Hovercraft Split a smooth feel with a natural look, while recycled rounded ABS sidewalls bolster durability in an eco-friendly construction process.
Details
Surfy split that thrives in deep pow and through tight trees. Directional shape and setback stance lives floaty namesake. Prominent nose rocker for maximum buoyancy in deep powder. Camber underfoot for swift, locked-in carves and ample snap. Medium-stiff flex for responsiveness and stability at speed. Karakoram clips actively join both halves for a solid feel. Traction Tech 2.0 edges for unrelenting grip on hardpack. Full poplar wood core makes for powerful snap without the bulk.
