Armada

There's a lot of small but important tweaks to the Armada line this year. Henrik's ski undergoes its first changes since its inception. Fatter edges and a slightly softer tail, address two of the complaints we had about the previous model. There's also a complete redesign of the ARV series with each model featuring changes. All the skis in that line have new poplar and ashwood cores to increase playfulness across the mountain, 2.2mm impact edges and 75% sidewalls vs the current 50s. The JJ (ARV 116 JJ) has an entirely new flex profile to increase confidence in tight zones, and 3D beveling on the tips/tails for endless buttering capabilities. The ARV 106 includes a new and stronger sidewall construction and has taken on a shape inspired the late JJ 2.0. Website: [url]http://www.armadaskis.com[/url]
