2026 Armada ARV 116 JJ UL Skis – Ultralight Freestyle Powder Performance
Legendary powder play, now 25% lighter.
The 2026 Armada ARV 116 JJ UL takes the iconic JJ design and strips away weight with a Caruba Core, making it 25% lighter than the original. This ultralight build makes it the perfect backcountry companion—easy on the uphill, unstoppable on the descent. With its surfy shape, freestyle-friendly flex, and ample rocker, the ARV 116 JJ UL is built for big lines, deep snow, and creative riding wherever the storm takes you.
| ROCKER 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 |
Tip: 3 | Mid: 5 | Tail: 4 |
|
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 to be ultralight. |
|
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. |
| 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. |
| BASE |
S7 Base – Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness. |
| 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. |
| BINDING COMPATIBILITY |
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width. |
