@011 Armada AR7 Sidewalls

[van_roon]

my armada AR7 have been used for about a year now and my sidewallls are like splitting, they are destroyed, and its really weird...maybe i try too hard?

 

[a_pla5tic_bag]

they look ok?hows the cap part?

 

[van_roon]

they are separating from the tops of the skis, ;oops like it had been soaking in water for days...and ehh okay

Pictures not real clear for me bro, but I'd buy some epoxy from a hobby shop, run some packing tape extending about two inches beyond the said area (two inches running the length of the ski) and mix the two part epoxy and apply it to the area with a Popsicle stick........ Or take it to the shop. But if your cheap get the epoxy, mix just enough, and do the repair. It's what I do to my sidewalk gashes and I haven't had a problem to date.

if they are de-laminating chances are Armada will replace them.

 

[NinetyFour]

Oh and the tape part you can skip, but it's not good to get alot of epoxy on your base. With the tape it should be flush with the edge, if there's some tape overhang, trim it off with a razor blade. Hope this helps.

 

[snocompton]

warranty that ish if its really been less than a year.

 

[@skiinmitch]

why would you put tape on your skis...

 

[ChillTeenDad420]

those look primo supreme compared to my 2010 alpha 2's...

they are fine dog

 

[NinetyFour]

the tape prevents any epoxy sticking to your bases while doing a repair to your sidewall.

 

[wynnyk]

the blue stripe has separated from the green stripe on one of my sidewalls... weird.

 

[@skiinmitch]

nvm it seemed like you were saying just tape it and leave it. i would just try and warranty them

 

[NinetyFour]

Lol no problem, I would to be concerned if someone was sayin TAPE EM! Lol, but yeah OP shoot for warranty!

 

[van_roon]

Yeah not taping my skis...I'll give armada a call later

 

[skiRay]

my sidewalls are fine but my edges and bases are literally seperating on one ski. its not good. and im waiting for my show to hear from armada about warranty. my friend has another big edge problem too and both of or skis are about a year old.

 

[Urban.]

SEND THEM BACK TO ARMADA... I did it because i had the same problem they took it back and sent me a brand new pair... and i used them for about 5 months.

 

[Upstate_Willis]

I've had no side wall issues but my under foot is fucked. my base sits higher then the edge here completely meaning no edge touches the snow. plus i am miss a inch long chunk of edge on right side of the ski with armada printed on it tip

 

[Mr_pretzel]

Same happend to me before they delamed.

 

[DUKES]

riding park and waiting to hear from armada about the warranty?

 

[@tlas]

I've rode my t-halls for maybe 2 weeks now, and they already are starting to do this, it happened to my chronics too. seems like this shit happens to park skis

[van_roon]

[van_roon]

guys for the help, +k

 

[skiRay]

you guys i think that it wouldnt be a bad idea to all contact armada about these issues...

Epoxy and clamp overnight covering both parts of the clamp with wax paper. My ar6s have more epoxy and jb weld on them than they do top sheet or sidewall but they're still fucking awesome!
