Armada’s Zero Series is designed by the brand’s top-level athletes to create the tools they need to ski better. SKI’s testers swooned at the limited-edition ARV 116 JJ Ultralight in particular, which is 25 percent lighter than the regular ARV 116 but descends just as well as the full-weight version. Featuring “smear tech” spooned bases on the generously rockered tips and tails and a Caruba wood core, this ski is a top pick for backcountry skiers who only want to shred pow.
