Story & heritage
ARV 116 JJ UL is the present lightweight branch of the JJ story: Armada says the iconic JJ receives an ultralight build for backcountry freestyle powder skiing.
That lineage matters for Armada because the brand’s own history says the patented 5-dimensional ARG design spawned the JJ in 2009 and changed how skis were designed and built.
Materials & craft
The official build lists Caruba Core, AR Freestyle Rocker, Smear Tech, 1.7 Lightweight Edge, Laminate Matrix, S7 Base and AR75 Sidewall; Armada also states the Caruba build shaves 25% off the original weight.
How to choose & style
Choose it for deep-day skiers who still want to slash, spin and smear rather than simply point a directional powder plank.
It anchors an Armada quiver as the soft-snow icon: pair it with a narrower ARV or Declivity when the forecast turns firm.
