Armada JJ -
Come and enjoy the most versatile premium powder fat ski on the market, the Armada JJ have a shorter turning radius than its big brother Magic J for that quicker graceful turn. The Armada JJ has the EST Freeride Rocker feature, which provides the best of camber that is out of this world. The rockered tips and tails work together with a positive camber underfoot that gives you the best in floatation in soft deep snow, and additionally can provide that great edge control in the hard pack.
The 1.7 impact steel edge on these babies is heat treated to a proprietary hardness, guaranteed to last. The Armada JJ has a 50/50 faster base for increased speed as compared to the S7 base and is more rugged. A special blend of Carbon/Kevlar creates the stringers that run along the tail of the skis, and provide the stability for that better landing platform. The ultra light core combined with the laminate matrix creates the exact amount of flex and torsional rigidity. These skis have all that the Magic has but is fast edge-to-edge with shorter radius turns.

Fabric:

  • Laminate Matrix - Blends Woven Fiberglass To Perfectly Control Flex And Balance Of the Ski
  • AR 50 Sidewall Construction - Light Weight Concentrated Underfoot For Huge Edge Hold, Low Swing Weight, And Durability
  • CK Stringer - A Carbon/Kevlar Weave Running Tip To Tail To Stabilize The Ski And Increase Pop

Insulation:

  • 1.7 Impact Edge - Standard Size With Additional Heat Treating To Keep Weight Down And Durability Up

Features:

  • Hybrid Ultralight Core - Allows For Wide Skis To Stay Light Weight With Great Stability
  • AR50 Sidewall
  • EST Freeride Rocker - Tip And Tail Rocker With Slight Camber Promotes Great Flotation With Remarkable Edge Control On Harder Stuff
  • Bindings not included
  • We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
  • 50/50 Base - Blends The Comp And S7 Bases For Speed And Durability

If you want the best in backcountry and sidecountry performance do the simple thing and go with the ski chosen more often than any other, the Armada JJ. Rocking the patented EST Freeride Rocker, sizable tip and tail rocker with slight camber underfoot, and a 115mm waist profile the JJ has the dimensions to float in blower powder with the ability to seamlessly transition to busted crud without having to back off. Since the JJ uses an Hybrid Ultralight Core combined with AR50 construction it is astonishingly lightweight and very nimble for a ski with this much girth, perfect for big spins on BC booters, tight technical lines, or anything really. Adding a CK Stringer adds pop to the JJ for extra boost off lips and power finishing turns while a laminate matrix helps balance the overall flex and provides some damping as well. There is good reason the JJ is one of the most popular backcountry/freestyle skis out there, it performs at a level that will never leave you asking for more.

So much jamtastic fun, Armada decided one J just wasn't going to cut it! Jack be nimble, but JJ be quick. Armada knew that you needed a powder ski that could make those tight turns fluently and move edge-to-edge, and thus the Armada JJ Skis were born. This is a big in yo' face powder ski that can give you all the powder action you need and leave you with energy to spare.

2013 Armada JJ Ski Review

Jeff here. Armada JJ. What an awesome super fun ski. Tons of early ride. Camber underfoot. It's just a riot to ride. Eariler today we had some pretty corduroy groomed conditions. Since this it's warmed up. Some loose snow starting to fluff. It's actually becoming fun to ride these bigger skis. I wish I had 4 feet of back bowls to go in and play with but it's not really the option. Regardless the JJ is just a blast. to ride. If you're a no speed limit maybe not a really big, a little bit smaller, this is going to be a really fun ski for you. This is just going to smash through trees, glade runs, back bowls steeps. Whatever you want it to do it's just going to hang out and just hold on, your're going. 5 out of 5 stars for the Armada JJ.

2013 Armada JJ Ski Review

Hey, this is Micah, I'm riding the Armada JJ, it's in a 180. It's actually a bigger ski then I was expecting, it's got the full free ride rocker. It's more of a powder freestyle ski, but actually on the groomers I was very shocked. The edges held very well just like Velcro, so I was very stoked on that. I give it a 4/5, I didn't have anything that I didn't like about this ski. So it's a solid ski, and I recommend you to at least get on it once or twice.

2013 Armada JJ Ski Review

Hi, I'm charlie, I just got off the Armada JJ, I give this ski 4/5 stars. For a backcountry ski this wide, an the rocker on it, it holds its edge surprisingly well on the groomers. So it makes getting to the backcountry a lot easier. Its a nice ski, its playful, if you wanted to go into the park with it, and just play around, its a really good ski for that, so I give it 4/5 stars.

2013 Armada JJ Ski Review

Hey, its Hunter here, got off the Armada JJ, I give this ski 2 out of 5 stars. Got done skiing it in variable conditions, the plus sides to this ski are, its really loose, your never gonna catch an edge, you can slip forward, sideways, switch, really any direction, and not worry about hanging up. What I don't like about it, when I took the ski on edge, and I want a traditional carved turn, it really just doesn't do it, the ski just kinda pushes sideways. Theres enough sidecut underfoot to get you to the lift. If your looking for something thats really good forward, switch, in any direction landing in between, this is a great choice. If you want that traditional edge hold on the groomers, on the way back, look towards something like the Influence 115.
