Armada has learned a lot about the balance between taper and rocker, and the brand new Armada ARV 116 JJ Ski is the culmination of all that knowledge. This third generation of the iconic JJ Skis, moves the contact point behind the ski's widest point in order to create more consistent turn initiation in deep snow. What's more, Armada also implemented a new 3D base technology called Smear Tech that delivers the smoothest, most surf-like experience to date. AR75 sidewall construction provides improved edge pressure and dampening, and a new 3d base combines the advantage of no-catch edges with the durability of a steel-built full edge wrap. A Carbon-Kevlar Strut adds some extra snap and energy to the JJ without adding any extra weight. When the snow starts getting deep, Armada's AR Freestyle Rocker has a generous amount of rocker in the tip for extra flotation, with camber underfoot that adds grip to the snow, and rocker in the tail for added smearability. It all adds up to the ultimate backcountry freestyle ski and the next evolution of the game-changing powder legend.Dimensions: 139/116/135 [185cm]Turn Radius: 18m [185cm]AR Freestyle Rocker - Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber underfoot to allow the ski to charge with ease through unpredictable snow and maintain a solid carve when asked to do so.
