Description


From the manufacturer

 

The iconic JJ gets the ultralight treatment with a Caruba Core that shaves 25% off the original’s weight. Playful, freestyle powder performance made for the backcountry.

 

Features

 

Profile






 
AR FREESTYLE ROCKER
Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber underfoot allowing the ski to float and track through deep, variable snow while maintaining solid edge hold in firmer conditions



Flex




  Flex (1=Soft, 10=Stiff)
Tip = 3 | Waist = 5 |Tail = 4



Laminates




  Laminate Matrix
A directional layering of fiberglass dictates the flex pattern and torsional rigidity of the ski to create the ultimate lively and forgiving feel with quick response.


Core






  Caruba Core 
Armada's lightest wood species creates the best uphill feel while retaining the power and dampness required for descending in the gnarliest of terrain. This core makes no concessions in its quest for ultralight performance


Sidewalls




  AR75 Sidewall
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


Binding Compatibility



  We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.


Edges




  1.7 Lightweight Edge
Light and strong, these heat-treated edges effect the feel of the ski minimally to ensure a snappy, lightweight feel. 


Additional Features




  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 uncatchable on takeoffs, Smear Tech lets you float effortlessly whether sliding forwards, backwards, left, or right.
