Jones Mountain Twin Snowboard vs K2 Sky Pilot

The Jones Mountain Twin is the more versatile all-mountain board: a directional twin with camber underfoot and rocker at the tips, so it rides switch well and still floats in powder. The K2 Sky Pilot is a directional freeride board built for powder and backcountry, with a longer nose and a set-back stance. Owners of the Mountain Twin praise its edge hold and pop, while Sky Pilot riders like its float and stability at speed. Buy the Twin if you ride the whole mountain and want one board; buy the Sky Pilot if deep snow and backcountry lines are your priority.

• Choose the Jones Mountain Twin if you want one board for groomers, park and powder and you ride switch often.
• Choose the K2 Sky Pilot if you spend most days chasing powder and backcountry terrain and rarely ride switch.
