Jeremy Jones earned his status as a pioneering snowboarder by literally carving the path for others by boarding unnamed peaks. He is known for big mountain free riding and pow surfing – which is binding-free snowboarding and frequently finds himself at the top of peaks that require every one of the 30+ years of his experience to navigate. Jones founded Jones Snowboards in 2009, a company whose mission is to innovate performance standards, making the best gear in their field. That’s something we can get into.

PROTECT OUR WINTERS

In 2007, Jeremy Jones founded Protect Our Winters, a nonprofit organization focused on mobilizing the snowsports community around efforts on legislation regarding climate change. Since then, POW has grown from a kernel of an idea into a worldwide network of more than 130,000 supporters.
