Armada JJ Skis 2011: The Armada JJ remains without a peer in back and sidecountry versatility. Thanks to the creatively applied EST Freeride Rocker and profile geometry, the Armada JJ Ski surfs to the cat track and carves to the lift.
The 1.7 edge height and width is deliberately smaller and the steel is heat-treated to a proprietary hardness to increase durability and decrease weight. The JJ has a unique shape that tapers in, then out, then in and out again. Therefore, it has unique measurements: 126-136-115-133-121 (185cm), 126-136-115-133-121 (175cm)
The EST Freeride Rocker is the best of all worlds. Rockered tips and tails combined with positive camber underfoot promote floatation in soft snow and provide remarkable edge control in the harder stuff.
AR50 is ABS sidewall meets cap construction – the best of both worlds. This engineering method combines the lightweight cap construction in the tip and tail with ABS sidewall underfoot, resulting in enhanced and significantly lower swing and overall weight. As the name implies, the 50/50 base is faster and more rugged than any other base Armada offers. A blend of Carbon/Kevlar stringers run along the tail of the skis to help stabilize it. This creates a better landing platform, especially when your weight is further back than intended. It also increases snap and adds pop to ollies.
Built to dominate the mountain and excel on powder, the slightly higher flex combines with the UltraLight core (two high density wood stringers that sit along ultralight wood) to create a light core with pop and solid edge hold, while keeping swing and overall weight down. Bi-axial fiberglass runs in an “x” pattern down the ski to control lateral flex. Uni-directional fiberglass controls flex along the length of the ski. And tri-axial fiberglass, with fibers running in three directions, beefs up the center of the ski.
Tip: 6, Waist: 7, Tail: 6.5 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)
