Armada ARV 116 JJ
Details
The iconic Armada ARV 116 JJ continues to carve its name into ski lore, coming correct with a Poplar-Ash wood core for maximum energy return and pop when sending it down pillow lines and ripping tree shots. The JJ's balanced flex profile is ideal for surfing powder while maintaining enough stiffness through the tip and tail to excel in tight conditions and no-fall zones. Smear Tech 3D base beveling in the tips and tails allows limitless directions of slashes, presses, and butters as you put your signature on the mountain.
The Upside:
- Pow Slayer
Wider waist and progressive rocker and taper lines enhance soft snow performance and float enabling pivots, slashes, and a variety of turn shapes in deep conditions.
- Art by David Alabo
ARV Series skis feature iconic artwork from David Alabo that explores surrealist futurism through intricately immersive design.
- Playful Versatility
It's a pow ski, but the buttery flex and blended rocker camber lines deliver a playful all-mountain performance.
