Super fun all mountain ski. Holds edge very well on groomers and stays stable at high speeds, It's rockered tip and stiffer tail keeps it confident in hard, tracked up snow. I'd like it to be a bot wider for pow days but for most days with no new snow they were awesome.

I demoed these skis up at Whistler last week, and absolutely loved them! I hiked up the glacier and they floated great in the powder (the big shovel rocker up front was awesome). I spent the rest of the day skiing 20,000+ vertical on groomers, and the large camber underneath was great. Even in the ice, they held their grip. I also like how there's no tail rocker so you can still rely on the stiff backs

Good, on/off piste. Gets a little loose at speed, better off piste. Wide tip made hard pack moguls a struggle, just not quick enough. Basically good for anything but not the best at any one thing.

I had fun on these skis. They turned well (fast) and felt very different what I'm used to because of the long rockered tip and flat tail. I found that having the asymmetrical rocker to the ski like this was a weird feeling to me that I never quite got comfortable with. Probably not the ski for me but would maybe recommend it for someone else.

This ski was excellent in soft snow conditions and spring conditions, very playful and snappy without being too soft. I did not try it on firm hard conditions but it was a ton of funin the warm slushy snow when I demo'ed it.

Armada put together a ski for Travis Steeger that would be tough enough to handle the deep powder settings of BC but still be capable to rip hard lines without sacrifice. In such, they produced the TST in honor of the late Steeger. Armadas setup can take you to new heights and big mountain terrain with great piece of mind. Secure in and out of turns with amazing control. Firm and responsive underfoot but a float in the tip that will make you feel like you're water skiing. Highly recommended for the big time skier, don't waste your time in the resort with these powder slayers.

One of the best all mountain skis I've been on in a while, this ski can do it all! Ski the steeps and deep in the morning and then shred the groomers and ice at night. The EST all mountain rocker has a progressive tip rocker but no tail rocker allowing the ski to turn like a GS ski on the groomers. Even on the ice this ski held its edge like a charm. What sold me on this ski was how well it handled the chunder. This ski had no problem grabbing an edge on super bad heavy wet snow. A portion of the proceeds of this ski are donated to Travis Steeger's Memorial Fund and which provides free avalanche skills training courses for youth. So do some good and buy this ski!!!

Received as a wedding gift from my bride. Great complement to the powder skis I have. These handle really well with adjustable bindings..Definitly recommend.

Mounted them up with 7TM power tour binding and these things rock. Really rail on the groomers and even at speed, minimal chatter from tips which are heavily rockered. The stiffer tail gives it pop on the turns. The tips help you float over choppy snow and crud.

Wow super stoked on this one. Came out last year but it was always taken when I wanted to try it... And for good reason. For having so much rocker and taper in the tip this skis extremely well on hardpack and then shines in the variable and deep snow. I was surprised how stiff the tail felt. It give the skier a sense of confidence that other skis don't have probably due to the fact that it has traditional camber. I really liked this one.

Likes to turn. Super to move with a tail you can rely on. Would reccomend mounting a hair back from "factory" if you are not used to a shape like this, not much though. Lots of fun on the steeps.
