For this season i am looking at getting some new skis that can slay powder and still get around the mtn. Right now i am looking at getting Armada JJ's or Moment Bibby pros. Any reviews or comparisons on either ski would be great.

Here's my take on the Bibby Pro:
https://newschoolers.com/web/forums/readthread/thread_id/453172/

Unless the snow is boilerplate, these have been my go-to ski for the past two seasons. Incredible in deep snow but still charges hard in shitty conditions. All lengths this year have a uniform flex with carbon fiber for lighter weight and added pop. I'm keeping the 190 for resorts and adding the 184 for touring.

Go with the JJ's on this one - you won't be disappointed.

i just ordered my jj's. ill let you know how they fell once i get them... but we need more info like height, weight, skier ability, what you will be mostly skiing on them, and where you live.

I can agree with this statement. No comment on the Bibby's though, but I've heard nothing but good things about them.

I can tell u that the jj's will be great for what u are looking for. I ski them every day and have similar stats to u. I have heard good things about the bibby, i'd try and demo them if thats at all possible. If u can't and have to make a decision without skiing on either, the jj is about as sure of a thing as it gets, I have litterally never talked to anyone who has skied them and not liked them
