Jones Kids Happy Mountain Package Snowboard 2026/2027

• The Kids Happy Mountain snowboard
• Bindings, pre-mounted — fitted at the factory
• A retractable leash
• A foam traction pad

Two of those — the leash and the traction pad — are the difference between this box and the Kids Prodigy Package, which ships with the board and bindings alone.

Jones builds the Happy Mountain around a shaped base, and unlike most of what it prints, it actually explains what the shaping does. Its own three lines:

• 3D Base promotes balance and board control
• Concave center hull for stability and gliding straight
• Raised edges with angled side channels for smooth “no-catch” turn initiation

Read together, that is a board designed so a child who has never stood on one can point it downhill and have it track straight, and can start a turn without the edge grabbing. Jones calls the milling a Junior 3D Contour Base.

A True Twin shape — symmetrical, so it rides the same in either direction, which matters when a kid has not decided which foot goes forward. The profile is FlatRock, shown flat on Jones’s own diagram. The flex is 1 out of 5, which Jones calls “soft and playful” and which is the softest board it builds.

Terrain scores: All-Mountain 10/10, Powder 5/10, Freestyle 5/10.

• Biax Fiberglass
• Premium Topsheet
• Sintered 8000 Base

Jones does not name a core for this board anywhere in its 26/27 catalog, so neither do we.

We stocked the 90. Jones lists it at 1.9 lbs (0.85 kg). Kids’ board length goes by height and weight, not boot size — message us both numbers and we will tell you honestly whether the 90 is the right call or whether your kid is already past it.

A child’s first-ever board. A 1/5 flex on a flat profile with a no-catch base is about as forgiving as a snowboard gets, and the leash and traction pad are the two things a beginner actually needs on day one.

It is not the board for a kid who is already linking turns and wants to start riding the whole hill — that is the Prodigy Package, which has camber underfoot, a stiffer 2/5 flex and a directional shape. A rider who has outgrown this one will feel it quickly.
