It's been a household name for some years now, and explains why this hasn't been updated in the Armada line for as long as this gear writer can remember. The Armada ARV 116 JJ UL is a lightweight powder ski optimized for quick turns, easy float, and the best maneuverability in deep snow. It's an ideal powder ski for a variety of skiers--from first time powder ski buyers to experienced backcountry tourers. It's a light, flickable ski that's perfect for deep snow conditions or backcountry skiing. The smear tech at the tip and tail keep the ends of the ski highly maneuverable in deep snow. It also adds drift and pivot to the ski, making it a blast for playful skiers. Softer tips make for easy turn initiation and a bit of play, but this ski is no noodle. You have enough power underfoot and at the tail to stomp landings and keep the ski tracking well through chopped snow. All in all, a ski for the dreams.
