Product Details

Rocker Type

AR Freestyle Rocker – Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber underfoot to allow the ski to charge with ease through unpredictable snow and maintain a solid carve when asked to do so. Turn the whole mountain into your playground.

Flex

Flex (1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – Tip: 6 | Mid: 4 | Tail: 7

Shape

Smear Tech – A 3D Beveled base in the tip and tail creates a unique feel in all snow conditions. Less likely to catch in crud, self-centering in deep snow and un-catchable on take-offs, Smear Tech lets you float effortlessly whether sliding forwards, backwards, left or right.

Core

Caruba Core – Armada's lightest wood species keeps the overall weight low while retaining the power and dampness you want while skiing.

Sidewalls

AR75 Sidewall – Sidewalls provide improved edge pressure under the boot, while cap constuction in the tip and tail provides smooth turn initiation and less hookiness - 75% sidewall, 25% cap.

Base

S7 Base – Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.

Edges

1.7 Lightweight Edge – Light and strong, these heat-treated edges effect the feel of the ski minimally to ensure a snappy, lightweight feel.

Additional Features

Smear Tech – A 3D beveled base in the tip and tail creates a unique feel in all snow conditions. Less likely to catch in crud, self-centering in deep snow, and uncatchable on takeoffs, Smear Tech lets you float effortlessly whether sliding forwards, backwards, left, or right.

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.
