Armada ARV 116 JJ

The iconic Armada ARV 116 JJ Skis are back with the same playful personality we know and love, featuring a stiffer profile than previous years for extra confidence in spicy no-fall zones. These powder puppies are built to pop, drift and smear down the mountain with beveled Smear Tech bases in the tip and tail for effortless catch-free turns whichever direction you face. Freestyle rocker and a near symmetrical shape make switch takeoffs and landings a breeze, so quit daydreaming and go build that backcountry booter!

Product Details
Rocker Type
AR Freestyle Rocker – Rockered tips and tails are combined with positve camber under foot to allow the ski to charge with ease through unpredictable snow and maintain a solid carve when asked to do so. Turn the whole mountain into your playground.

Flex
Flex Pattern (1 Soft - 10 Stiff) – Tip: 7 | Waist: 8 | Tail: 7.5

Shape
Smear Tech – A 3D beveled base in the tip and tail creates a unique feel in all snow conditions. Less likely to catch in crud, self centering in deep snow and un-catchable on take offs, Smear Tech lets you float effortlessly whether sliding forwards, backwards, left or right.

Core
Poplar Ash Core – Lightweight Poplar is combined with higher density full length Ash stringers to create an impossibly lively ski that has all the power needed for boosting to new elevations.

Sidewalls
AR75 Sidewalls – Sidewalls provide improved edge pressure under the boot, while cap constuction in the tip and tail provides smooth turn initiation and less hookiness - 75% sidewall, 25% cap.

Base
S7 Base – Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.

Edges
2.2 Impact Edge – Heat treated and built to avoid excess weight while maintaining durability, this edges gives the best balance of durability and feel of the whole Armada collection.
