Jones Aviator 2.0 vs Jones Stratos
Snowboards comparison — 2024-2025 season
How they compare
Both target all mountain terrain, while the Jones Stratos leans more freeride. The Jones Aviator 2.0 uses a directional twin shape while the Jones Stratos is directional. The Jones Aviator 2.0 has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Jones Stratos uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Jones Aviator 2.0 is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the medium range.

Used market
What to inspect and what not to confuse when buying used. Not on-snow reviews.
Jones Aviator 2.0
Jones’s camber-leaning all-mountain board. Used supply is moderate; confirm you are not buying a Mountain Twin or Stratos, and inspect the base and edges rather than paying for a newer season sticker.
Jones Stratos
Jones’s playful freeride/all-mountain shape. Used Stratos listings are thinner than Mountain Twins. Confirm it is not a Mind Expander or Flagship, and inspect the tapered tail before paying a powder-board premium.
