When it comes to all-mountain freestyle sticks that love to butter, spin and take to the air, the Armada ARW 96 Skis are the cream of the crop. Their Poplar-Ash core is poppy, snappy, and stable through the variable, and AR Freestyle Rocker is perfectly tuned for the skier hucking it in the park one day and hunting fluff the next. Whatever you throw at them, the Armada ARW 96 Skis will get 'er done in style.
AR Freestyle Rocker – Rockered tips and tails are combined with positve camber under foot 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 Pattern (1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – Tip: 4.5 | Waist: 5.5 | Tail: 5
Poplar-Ash Core – Lightweight Poplar is combined with higher density full length Ash stringers to create an impossibly lively ski that has all the power needed for boosting to new elevations.
AR75 Sidewalls – 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.
S7 Base – Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.
2.2 Impact Edge – Heat treated and built to avoid excess weight while maintaining durability, this edges gives the best balance of durability and feel of the whole Armada collection.
