Armada has argueably the most formidable team ever put togeather in newschool history.. so who should they add to it to improve it and what groms should they grab
if the company had unlimited budget and could buy out the contracts of thovex,olsen or fujas,would this have any effect on rossi or salomon and would it convince more people to get armadas on their feet
well if you take a look at your local mountain you'll see how big of an affect pros have on the industry. just look at how many kids are sporting some kind of oakley gear. is it a coincidence that oakley also has one of the, if not the best team out there? is it a coincidence that armadas sold out entirely within their first 2 months of release?
yea or because oakley makes the best looking skiing clothes OR I SHOULD SSAY USED TO. this year we will see what affect the team has on sales because everything is fuckin hideous, except the pants the replaced the lab pants.
well, oacley still have some pretty decent clothes but yea sometimes they do have weird idea.
armada sold all tehir skis cause they had the hype going. they prolly wont have the same thing happening again this winter but yea their team is sick and having a low sponsorship system would make it better cause more people would see those ski in small ski area
Amarda is the best team ever in newschool history.... I say NO.
If you're gonna be smart about this look back, the old Salomon Team 'New Canadian Air Force' totally dominated the scene almost entirely. Look further back prior the park explosion it was K2 that the best team in the industry. They dominated the big mtn scene and the budding park scene. Armada is an incredible team but they are the best in history.

yeah but armada have put this team in place to not only to further the sport but also to sell product... is this working ... has it worked.. and if yes should they take on more pros
are u joking? TANNER IS THE HEADLINER for the ARMADA team.... Yeah, I think they need CR too, if they wanted to be the best, I meant the guy is amazing and goes huge on everything, like his bio 10s and 12s and his '50-50' grind and his 'biggest 900 in the pipe history'. He's sick, even if he acts ghetto and is white.
The top team would consist of foremost:
CANDIDE THOVEX
CR JOHNSON
JON OLSSON
TANNER HALL
...because they are the top comp winners, followed by style/coolness:
PEP FUJAS
BOYD EASLEY
JF CUSSON
ERIC POLLARD
...and for progression/crazyness
JON MCMURRAY
SETH MORRISON
That's the Dream Team of Newschool Skiing, and would be the 'no-budget' team, at least if i could have a team and had no budget.
That serious one the best team without place to doubts but from my point of view you in a thing:
You usually say that Hall, Thovex and Olsson are good competitors and that Pep, Easly.. have a lot of style. i don't know if you will say it for the form of to dress and to behave but if you say for style skiing Hall Olsson and Thovex have a very purified technique and they make very clean tricks.
i realize they picked up that grete girl, but i think that isnt enough; they should assemble a womens team of 3 or 4 more who can rip...kinda like an am team but different. that would help progress the sport as well, kinda.
