Jones Frontier vs Jones Stratos
Snowboards comparison — 2022-2023 season
How they compare
Both boards are designed for all mountain riding. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. Both feature camber profiles — arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise. The Jones Stratos is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range.

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.
