Armada

Magic J Ski

The Armada Magic J Skis take screaming-fast powder skiing to an entirely new dimension. Also known as Tanner Hall's ski-of-choice, the Magic J is a wider version of the JJ with the widest point moved slightly aft and with less taper, just the way Tanner likes it. As a result, these fat sticks have a longer turning radius that is extremely stable at high speeds, which is most fitting for experienced powder-fiends.

Equipped with an EST Freeride Rocker profile (rockered tip and tail with regular camber underfoot), these bad boys allow for smooth, fast, sweeping turns down big lines or long groomer runs. Armada is all about durability and ensuring the life of its skis, so it gave the Js a Hybrid Ultralight wood core and AR50 sandwich sidewall construction for a high strength-to-weight ratio that you can count on when you're charging down floaty pillow lines, techy terrain, or through early-season conditions.

These all-mountain destroyers also have Laminate Matrix technology (directional layering of fiberglass) that provides a smooth, even flex pattern and torsional rigidity for stellar performance in a variety of snow conditions and terrain. In addition, you'll be grateful for the lightweight, strong 1.7mm edges that have been heat treated for durability and 50/50 bases that offer a just-right blend of speed and durability.
