Product Info

A longtime favorite at evo and the Pacific Northwest in general, the Armada ARV 106 Black Edition Skis get a fresh new "all business" look. This is one of the most balanced freeride skis we know of, built to take the abuse of the park and head back to the top of the mountain for pow laps over and over again. As usual, the ARV 106 starts with a Poplar wood core (now with an Ash binding insert) and adds W3Dgewall construction with thick 2.5 Impact Edges to take the stress of hard landings and park features.

Product Details

Rocker Type

AR Freestyle RockerRockered 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, Waist = 7, Tail = 7

Core

Poplar CoreStability, power, and ease are paramount in this 100% poplar wood core. For those looking for predictability and smoothness, the Poplar core delivers in all snow conditions.

Laminates

Ash Binding InsertAsh binding inserts provide maximum strength and binding retention with a more sustainable construction than binding inserts made from other materials.

Sidewalls

w3DgewallThe w3Dgewall is a radical reimagining of ski design. Our engineers went to work on a unique concept to create the most durable, highest performance construction we’ve ever built. The w3Dgewall is a 3D molded, injected sidewall that’s angled where it joins the wood core, creating a mechanical bond in the mold during ski construction for a stronger, more uniform connection between the sidewall and core. With more material in critical areas for added durability and a three-dimensional taper in the tip and tail, the w3Dgewall creates a ski that will stand up to more abuse while providing enhanced edge grip at reduced weights.

Base

S7 BaseDurable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.

Edges

2.5 Impact EdgeOversized and specially heat-treated, this edge is built to resist impact damage in the most demanding situations.

Binding Compatibility

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