Start them early! The Jumper is designed for mini senders. Rest easy knowing that your little ones have Y3D to help prevent catching an edge while learning to link turns. YES put the same quality and characteristics into The Jumper as the rest of the YES line to ensure that YES kids can shred anything in their path. It features a full wood core, sintered base, Y 3D profile and SideKick.
Shape/Profile
Shape: True Twin
A twin snowboard is symmetrically shaped, with an identical nose and tail, enabling riders to perform maneuvers and tricks with ease in both regular and switch stances. This symmetrical design ensures equal performance characteristics regardless of direction, facilitating versatile riding experiences. Ideal for freestyle riders and terrain park enthusiasts, twin snowboards enhance maneuverability, allow for seamless transitions between tricks, and promote a balanced feel. The symmetrical shape fosters a consistent and predictable ride, making it well-suited for those who enjoy riding in various directions and executing tricks with a uniform approach.
Profile: Camber
This is the classic camber profile where the center of the board is raised off the snow, and the contact points are closer to the bindings.
Offers good edge control, stability, and pop.
Can be less forgiving than other profiles, making it better for advanced riders or those who prefer a more aggressive riding style.
Construction
1. Extruded
YES Snowboards' extruded bases are durable, low-maintenance, and cost-effective, making them ideal for beginner and casual riders. Created by melting polyethylene pellets and molding them, these bases have lower porosity, requiring less waxing and simplifying tuning. While sintered bases offer higher performance, extruded bases provide a smoother learning curve and forgiving ride in various conditions.
2. Full Poplar
Poplar is known for its combination of lightweight and strength, providing a good balance for the core. Its lightweight nature contributes to the overall reduced weight of the snowboard.
Additionally, poplar offers a consistent and predictable flex pattern, enhancing the board's responsiveness.
The wood's durability ensures the core can withstand the stresses of riding while maintaining a desirable flex. Overall, poplar wood helps create snowboards that are lightweight, durable, and responsive, catering to a broad range of riders.
3. BIAX
Biaxial or "Biax" fiberglass consists of fibers running in two directions, typically along the length and width of the board. This construction provides a balanced flex pattern, making the snowboard more forgiving and easier to control. It enhances torsional flexibility, allowing for smoother turns and maneuvers, which is particularly beneficial for riders who prioritize a playful and versatile riding experience rather than aggressive performance.
Features
Y3D JIB
The Y3D Jib/Street is the most cozy 3D in the collection. A real smooth operator that will have your back all day long. Easy to navigate short and sketchy in runs and the most forgiving 3D giving comfort progressing your rail game.
- Wide center base for stability on rails and obstacles.
- Medium uplift of the side bases for control on difficult run ins and sketchy landings.
- Early start of the side base uplift for a nice and loose underfoot feel, forgiveness and no edge catch.
SIDEKICK
Sidekick technology elevates the edges at the widest points of the board’s nose and tail, minimizing the risk of catching an edge. This design enhances forgiveness during rides, ensuring a smoother experience. Particularly beneficial in powder snow, Sidekick optimizes floatation, by flushing snow outwards. It also helps preventing unexpected edge catches when riding on a flat base. Enjoy
a more confident and controlled snowboarding experience with Sidekick technology.
This is a 3D feature in the tip and tail sections outside the snowboard’s effective edge. It’s there when you need it and it will only be effective in pow, slush and shitty ‘end of the day’ bumpy snow conditions. When everything is perfectly groomed SIDEKICK is not influencing the ride. However, this is only the first hour of the day and after that you will be happy to have
SIDEKICK make your board run smoother, less nervous and channels the snow in a more natural way creating more float in deep snow conditions.
Characteristics
Flex: 1/10
Perfectly symmetrical shape for balanced riding, equally versatile both when used regular and when used in switch. Great balance between feline stability and freestyle mobility, no matter which way you point it.
