Ska jazz is a music genre derived by combining the melodic content of jazz with the rhythmic and harmonic content of ska. Ska jazz is considered a subgenre of third wave ska, but lacks the punk rock influence present in much of third wave ska, though jazz was a significant influence on ska itself. Ska jazz bands usually contain one or two electric guitars, a bass guitar, keyboards, a drum kit and a horn section (composed of any combination of the following: trumpet, trombone, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, and baritone saxophone). Occasionally there may be one or more vocalists, but the genre is primarily focused on instrumental tunes. The brass instruments usually carry the melody, and there are occasional improvised solos. The rhythm section places accents on the off beats, thus giving the music a different feel than straight jazz. From Wikipedia under the

It's evolving but it still has all the main ingredients. It still has the "guitar shuffle," with the upstrokes, which is the number one thing that makes it ska. It may be different but all music goes through changes over time. Those bands still have the ska beat, it's just sped up and much more punk-fused than the traditional stuff, which is why it's often called ska-punk. It's not as though the sound jumped from one extreme to the other. There was the '70's 2-tone sound in between, plus there are a whole bunch of related and influential genres. You'll find the more research you do the more you find out the transition isn't all that drastic.
