That is some hard charging carving. That's my style, right up my alley. Awesome.
Loving all the whitewater footage
This or bsod? I’m really intrigued by the carving ability of this thing.
Can you do a review on the dreamweaver?
Hey! Many thanks for the aviator review - I've got one ordered but thinking about the bataleon thunderbolt...mainly interested in carving and side hits....any thoughts would be much appreciated!
Definately stick with the Aviator for carving. Bateleons are great, but you'll have more effective board engaging the snow with the Jones.
How is this powder in powder?
Not a lot of powder but like about 12” of pow? Will it sink or will it stay up?
I currently run a mountain twin split 159W but on groomers and on the ice over here in Quebec it’s a little soft.
Is the aviator comparable to the mountain twin in pow with a little more stability at speeds?
Can I get a slow motion loop video of mark waiving that lamp around
no
Ciao! For my feet numer 43 (italian number) I need a wide? In Italy people say take a wide only whit a feet number 44+...
Would you recommend wide models for anyone with size 10+ feet?
I wear a size 10 thirty two TM-3 and have zero issues on my 162.
Hi from Italy e thanks for the aviator review. I've a question for you. I'm mainly interested in carving (in this moment I've got Ride Superpig). I'm 182 cm and 75 kg , size boots 10 (28,5 cm) - binings size "L "(nidecker supermatic). What size for me ? Do you think 157W is correct for me?
Thank a lot !!!
157 w should be perfect ! Thanks for checking the Review!
@@tributeboardshop Thanks 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
I would call myself a high-intermediate to advanced rider (but def NOT expert) who likes to go all over the mountain. I'm tall and have a big foot (5'10", 157lbs, and size 11 boot) and I was so excited to find an actual WOMEN'S board that said it would accommodate my size! I snatched up the Airheart 2.0 in a 155cm but got a little freaked out after looking at some of the reviews and haven't taken it out of the box. I want to dominate my board and not have it dominate me! I go hard but I also ride with my two teenage sons on a lot of blue runs too. Will this board be okay with a mellow day of riding once in a while or will I need to be on high alert all the time? Also, is it maneuverable in the trees? I mostly dig carving and finding side hits and natural features but I do like to play around with switch and butters when I'm chilling out with my boys on easier runs. I also like finding some tree runs and hitting a natural feature that throws me back onto a main run. Why does this board scare me? I've seen varying reviews and I really don't know what to think. Would love to hear some comments by those who know.
Hello! i am an advancsd rider! Let me answer ur questions:
1st: nope! This board has high preformance when it comes to freeride,all mountain and freestyle! Although, it may be a lil harder to make turns with if ur used to the old airheart.
2nd: it is! It can ride powder but also stiffer snow, but between the trees makes it rlly fun! But, when u do, u need to stay a lil more alert. But good thing is, the tiniest bit of being alert makes it rlly fun still!
3rd: this board can scare u of the reviews, but i am sure alot of the reviews are made by beginners who shouldnt use a board like this. Dont be scared, just try it out! Once ur used to it, it'll rip those mountains!
how is the aviator in pow? i bought one recently and havnt got to test it
We were pleasantly surprised! Rides very well , set it all the way back for best results :)
This vs the Otto what is your choice?
Very, very different boards. Th Aviator is ultra responsive. Great for park / rail riding and those who ride "over" their board. It Initiates turns and spins in a millisecond with minimal effort. The Otto is a more laid back and surfy. As a true directional, it will ride / float in powder better. Will also handle a variety of turns, especially long drawn out ones better. Those who like to ride very aggresively, commited to a tipped over, leaning-in , surf style would likely gravitate to the Otto, myself being one of them.
Really diferent boards, almost different categories. I like that super surfy, non aggressive feel, so for me....the Otto for sure. The jones Flagship is a better conparison to the Otto, and also super great. The Aviator is really aggresive and responsive to every little move. Great for park riders, spinny-tricks, and those who want the board to do all the work.
Im hombre 174/cm long and 72 kg / body weight with Snow boots 9 US ... good rider : what size for me ? if i want to ride all mounatin .....
You would be great on eithger the 158, or 159W. If riding more park, and resort that does NOT recieve alot of big powder days, go with the 158. If you live in a region that has a lot of powder days, and you like to carve really hard with the board at a high edge angle, go with the 159W. I'm sure you will love either of them.
What bindings would you guys recommend for the Aviator?
We rode this with the Union Force and the Jones Apollo Binding , both has a similar concept with dampening but unique in design ! Start by checking out those two , we have some Force in stock also ready to ship !
@@tributeboardshop thanks a heap! Was also consider Atlas/Atlas Pro. Assume they won’t be too much for the board if you guys were riding the Apollos
@@walsh93jazz Atlas is another amazing option - will increase the response a bit from the Force !
Does it have stone grind?
No. The finsih work is excellent however. Possibly even industry leading. Capita ( Mothership ) is the only major manufacturer that sells their boards with proper stone ground structure patterns.
@@markfawcett8142 And K2/Ride and without he training wheels lol
It’s agressive, but is it catchy? I would think with that 3D modeling, get get a touch forgiveness?
I just ordered it.. from what Ive read up online, a lot of reviewers are saying that it punishes mistakes and is not very forgiving.. but reading customer reviews on Jones' Website, some are saying that it is more forgiving than everyone is saying. Still not sure how to feel about all that, but I guess I'll find out.
Godspeed. I’m on the mind expander twin from last year and it’s sick.
@@Dmcjixjdndncnc let us know !
@@FreshwaterFloof and how is it on edge on hard pack ? does it chatter alot at speed ? really like the board. a twin powder / groomer ripper with edge tech and 2 big spoons to swivvel and szizell
@@WAco-se9wf course! It’ll be a week and a bit until I get out there. I have exams until next Thursday
I'm out at 158. Jones does not make boards for us smaller dudes.
Hi Marty. They make the Aviator in a 150cm, 154 and 156. If you'd like smaller , the airheart comes in a 146,149, 152. Its a great board. Smaller folks can also look at the youth sizes....Jones makes some great boards for youth !
