Is there any non-cosmetic difference? I can find the 2019 version for cheaper and I'm looking at getting a pair

No, the same ski except cosmetics. They made the changes to the ARV line to the longer AR75 sidewall, bigger edges, new core and different shape etc last year and no changes in the 2019/2020 model. So run to deals on last year’s models!
 
Think the only difference is theres the LTD version which I guess is a bit stiffer than the normal one, would recommend over the normal 106, can be a bit soft in some chundery conditions that make me wanna slow down.

The LTD versions adds 2 sheets of metal to add a bit of dampness and stability without gaining much weight. Not as common so doubt there are lots out there to get deals on the LTD versions though.

The changes they made last year to the cores, shapes and profiles, going to beefier edges in the 106 and increasing the running length of full height sidewall(AR 50 to AR75) improved the stability and performance of the entire ARV line. Was a big performance increase from the 2017/2018 versions. The LTD versions are another step above in dampness even the 2019/20 versions.
