Skins

I recently ordered the Jones Solution Split board and skins. The quality is top notch. I am very happy.

I am not as much happy with the pre cut skins that do not match the boards edge profile. The wave in the skins and the board do not match. AKA the precut skins were cut wrong or I ordered the wrong ones or I was sent the wrong ones. I have already fell on the slopes because my edges were covered by the skins. Now I have to micro trim my skins to fit. Kinda annoying when I checked the board's size to order the right sized precut skin.

Light poles easy to handle.

Light poles easy to handle.
One thing which i didn‘t figure out yet is to bring the poles closer together for on the backpack.

Yes, they're worth it.

I have had the same BD carbon poles for the last 7 years and they finally both snapped. That said I am so happy i went with the Jones Talon poles because they have a handle that scrapes snow well, no longer need to use my highback and are super adjustable and lightweight. No need to go carbon, they're feather light. Love them so far!

3 years later…

Still the best poles I've had.
Before these I'd been through a pair each of BD's z-poles & Expedition. They were ok, but within a season something or other would break.
I spend about 40 days a season in the Japanese backcountry, so that means very deep pow, to very crusty mornings in spring.
When I got the Jones Talons (3 years ago) I immediately sourced the bigger deep snow baskets from their supplier (Komperdell) for the winter. The Claw 1.0 has been fine for spring and hard conditions.
Unfortunately, I didn't know how to best adjust the clamps so I've beaten them up some, but they are still solid and hold. The pole sections have paid the price, but again, still doing their jobs.
I recently made the mistake of ordering some hyped-up poles made by a famous Canadian backcountry splitboarding guide and guess what? They are basically the talons with fixed (and way too soft) baskets and a less comfortable top grip (bruises in my palms as I type this after a long climb yesterday). If Jones just made the baskets nest as well as those do, they'd be best you can get.
By the way, the floating baskets are no gimmick. They increase the odds of a solid grip when hiking on inclines and keep the poles upright when planting them, which can prevent a lot of frustations with poles suddenly slipping out or tipping over (which can lead to various scenarios, including falls and loss).

So, 3 years later… I don't need new poles. And when I will, I'll be reaching for these, no doubt.

Great pole, great price

I have used a lot of different brands of poles. I like the reliability of these. The grip is top notch. The pole basket is also a favorite of mine. Great pole, great price.
