Jones Ultra Mountain Twin vs K2 Medium

How they compare

Both target freestyle terrain, while the Jones Ultra Mountain Twin leans more all mountain/freeride. The Jones Ultra Mountain Twin uses a directional twin shape while the K2 Medium is twin. The Jones Ultra Mountain Twin has a hybrid (rocker/camber) profile (mix of camber and rocker zones for all-mountain versatility—grip, float, and play in one profile), while the K2 Medium uses camber (arc underfoot for strong edge hold, pop, and stability on hardpack—lively and precise). The Jones Ultra Mountain Twin is slightly stiffer, though both sit in the stiff range. At $549.95 vs $649.95 MSRP, the K2 Medium is the more budget-friendly option.
