REVIEW:
The Armada VJJ,(yes, I said VJJ) which is the women's version of the JJ, is just what you're looking for if you want quick responsiveness and playfulness in deep powder. She has a little camber under foot so you can make you way back on the skied out groomers at the end of the day and know that she'll let you relax a little, but most of all, the Armada JJ inspires you to call in sick and head for the slopes when you're blessed with a big storm.
And how could anyone not LOVE the name? Asking about them in the lift-line could be awkward, though...
Am I too old to understand some of the current graphics? Maybe. ;)
