Website wars: Jeremy Jones vs Jeremy Jones

Jeremy Jones has launched a website. It’s called The Real Jeremy Jones – but has that helped you actually work out which Jeremy Jones we’re talking about?
 

If you didn’t already know – there are two Jeremy Joneses – and they’re two very different snowboarders.

Here is our quick guide to the two blokes and their websites.

Best blog quote:

"I’m not really the ’save the world type’,  I mean I am happy to throw my cardboard and recyclables in the proper place.  But I love motors,  I love that I put gas in my bike,  I love the loud noise it makes."

Jeremy Jones – the freeride one

Age: 33

Wife & kids
Big mountains

Website: www.jeremyjones.net – JonesExperience

Website summary:
A traditional low-fi blog style site featuring snowboarding and travel tales, photographs and links. Has been running for quite a while. Not updated often but when it is, they're good long losts with lots of pictures.

Best blog quote:
"I am may tired (sic) at the end of a full day of hiking in the mountains but there is a noticeable bounce to my step and a lift to my spirit.  Spending a day on the “sharp end”  makes me a better person.  The every day stresses of life are not as stressful and I carry a contentness around for a few days.  Depending on the trip, or the day this will last awhile but eventually I need to get back out there and replenish my spirit."
