Armada's take on the El Ray
"El Rey is the ultimate go-anywhere, do anything and still have money in your pocket, ski.  These boards consistently perform in varying conditions thanks to extra waist width and our deepest sidecut.  The El Ray is deliberately light form the full-wood Fleet Core to the nylon cap allowing it to turn resiliently, but take the beating of a good day in the park.  As with all our skis, design doesn't stop at construction.  cost, performance and appearance make this the most versatile ski we offer."
As mentioned in an earlier post...
I have skied the El Ray and I love it...
I think is a great progressing intermediate ski. I'm about 190lbs and ski hard. I was very surprised on how stable, easy to ski, and light weight.
Super fun!
It might just be my all around ski to place by the PC's, JJ's & THalls...
