Jones describes it as the strap-in-and-go first snowboarding experience: learn-to-ride, stable, durable, and built for learning to balance and glide rather than for making progress up the mountain. The bindings arrive already mounted on the board.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat comes in the box\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Kids Happy Mountain snowboard\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBindings, pre-mounted\u003c\/strong\u003e — fitted at the factory\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA retractable leash\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eA foam traction pad\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe base is the whole idea\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJones builds the Happy Mountain around a shaped base, and unlike most of what it prints, it actually explains what the shaping does.

Jones lists it at 1.9 lbs (0.85 kg).

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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Jones","offers":[{"title":"90","offer_id":51637723136295,"sku":"J.26.SNU.KIS.XX.90.1","price":349.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/7177\/0663\/files\/happy-mountain-package.png?v=1783968551","url":"https:\/\/933534.myshopify.com\/products\/jones-kids-happy-mountain-package-snowboard-2627","provider":"PTO SKI \u0026 Snowboard","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
