The Bent Chetler is not as versatile JJ. The JJ was originally designed as a backcountry pow ski that could transition to groomers, chop, hard pack, and other variable conditions without skipping a beat. the Bent Chetler, it is a great ski in deep snow due to the 5 dimensional design, but due to the additional 8mm underboot and more shallow sidecut this ski doesn’t transition as well as the JJ in other variable conditions. It is also slightly heavier the JJ making it less nimble in tight situations; because of the JJ’s deep sidecut underboot and subsequent 14.2m turn radius it makes tight tree skiing much easier. Atomic followed Armada's lead and hasn't been able to duplicate.
