Snowboards comparison — 2026-2027 season
How they compare
Both target freeride and powder terrain, while the Jones Howler leans more all mountain/freestyle. They share a directional shape — different nose and tail; built to ride forward with better float in powder and drive on groomers. The Jones Howler has a camber profile (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise), while the Jones Storm Chaser uses hybrid (rocker/camber) (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile). The Jones Howler is noticeably stiffer at 8/10 versus the Jones Storm Chaser's 5/10, suiting more aggressive riding.
