The take
“A full-camber twin scaled small enough to actually bend: Jones gives it a 10/10 for freestyle and a 6 for powder, and both numbers are honest.”
The Jones Women's Tweaker 2.0 is the freestyle board of the 26/27 women's line, and the catalog badges it NEW SHAPE. Jones scores it All-Mountain 8, Powder 6, Freestyle 10 — the joint-highest freestyle mark the brand gives, shared with the two men's Tweakers. The shape is a True Twin, meaning symmetric in outline and in bend, so the board has no opinion about which end leads.
What makes the Tweaker 2.0 interesting is the pairing of a full-camber profile with a 2/5 flex. Camber gives back what a rider presses into it, and a stiff cambered deck therefore asks for strength before it gives anything at all. Jones's answer was to leave the camber alone — True Camber at medium height, no rocker anywhere — and take the stiffness out instead. The catalog names the stringer and stops there. Carbon springs back and flax deadens vibration as a matter of material physics; that is our read, not Jones's word. Medium Traction Tech serrates the steel for bite on hard snow, and the Sintered 8000 base rewards regular waxing.
Geometry is what separates the Women's Tweaker 2.0 from the rest of the family: 140–151 lengths, 23.2–24.0cm waists, and a 6.0–7.0m sidecut. That is a short arc and a narrow lever, so it changes edges quickly and finishes a turn early — good in trees, on side hits, and anywhere the line moves. The costs are stated plainly by Jones. Powder 6 means no taper and no rocker, so the nose sinks unless you weight the tail. And a 2/5 board with no Koroyd or basalt in it is not built to stay calm through fast, chopped-up snow.
In the line, the Women's Rally Cat matches the flex and the camber but is a Directional Twin without the stringer — the cruiser. The Women's Airheart 2.0 is the stiff 4/5 with High camber and Koroyd, for a rider who overpowers this one. The Women's Dream Weaver 2.0 is the float board at the same 2/5. The Tweaker is the one you buy because you ride switch. It ships as a bare deck; we mount it and set a centred stance in the shop.
Bindings we'd pair with it
Mount point: Centred stance — a True Twin is built to be ridden with the bindings set centre; we set it in the shop. Our pick: Jones Nebula FASE (the catalog pairing).
- Jones Nebula FASEJones's own factory pairing for the Tweaker 2.0
The catalog lists the Nebula FASE as one of the two bindings this board is matched with. We do not currently stock it — bring the binding you ride, or talk to us about what we carry, and we will mount and adjust the setup here.
- Jones EquinoxThe second binding Jones pairs with this deck
Also listed in the 26/27 catalog as a match for the Women's Tweaker 2.0. It is not a binding PTO stocks; bindings are a separate purchase in any case, and we will fit whatever you land on.
Common Questions
- Does the Jones Women's Tweaker 2.0 really ride the same switch?
- Yes, and the shape name is the reason. Jones's True Twin grade requires the nose and tail to match in outline and in flex — most of the twins beside it in the range only match in outline and firm up behind the back foot. On this deck your fakie stance sits on exactly the board your regular stance does, which is what the Freestyle 10 score is built on.
- Is full camber too much board if I am still progressing?
- It depends where you are. A cambered board finds an edge sooner than a rockered one, so a first week on snow is better spent on something else. But 2/5 is one of the gentler ways into camber: if you can link turns already and want to start ollieing and riding fakie, this board cooperates rather than punishes.
- How is it different from the men's Tweaker 2.0?
- By the tape measure, not the recipe. Construction, profile, flex rating and terrain scores match. The women's version is cut 140–151 with 23.2–24.0cm waists and 6.0–7.0m radii, where the men's runs 149–162 on 24.8–26.0cm waists and 7.3–7.8m radii. Less board to lever onto edge, and a shorter turn once it is there.
- Does it come with bindings?
- No — Jones sells it as a deck on its own. The catalog matches it to the Nebula FASE and the Equinox, neither of which we stock, so plan on bindings you already own or ask us what would suit. We mount and set your stance in the shop before it leaves.
