Product Info

Armada Alpha 1 Skis 2011: The Armada Alpha 1 Ski is a state-of-the-art, competition ready, park destroying tool. The creatively applied EST Park Rocker turns a ski that’s stiff enough for huge landings and haul-ass speed into an all-mountain slasher. Already spawning imitators, the Armada Alpha 1 was the first, and is the best, rockered park ski.

Product Details

Shape

The Alpha 1 has a unique shape that tapers in, then out, then in and out again. Therefore, it has unique measurements: 96-113-83-102-87 (182cm), 95-112-82-101-86 (176cm), 94-111-81-100-85 (170cm)

The EST Park Rocker is truly the next level - subtle rocker in the tips and tails with positive camber underfoot. This enhances carving while also disengaging the tip and tail to create a catch-free feel that’s ideal for buttering and nose and tail presses.

Construction

AR50 is ABS sidewall meets cap construction – the best of both worlds. This engineering method combines the lightweight cap construction in the tip and tail with ABS sidewall underfoot, resulting in enhanced and significantly lower swing and overall weight. The Comp Series base is a World Cup inspired base that requires higher maintenance than the S7, the Comp series pays for the extra TLC it requires in one way: speed. A blend of Carbon/Kevlar stringers run along the tail of the skis to help stabilize it. This creates a better landing platform, especially when your weight is further back than intended. It also increases snap and adds pop to ollies

The 2.5 impact edge has an oversized height and width and the steel is heat-treated to a proprietary hardness which helps resist breaking and tearing out from rails, ledges and any other abuse it might need.

Flex

The stiffer flex softens in the tip and tail giving these skis the ability to conquer the park, the mountain, and beyond. Meanwhile, the triple zone core (three high density wood stringers sitting along ultra light wood) give you a powerful, durable core with explosive energy return. Triple zone cores resist compression without creating unnecessary weight. Bi-axial fiberglass runs in an “x” pattern down the ski to control lateral flex. Uni-directional fiberglass controls flex along the length of the ski. And tri-axial fiberglass, with fibers running in three directions, beefs up the center of the ski.

Flex Rating

Tip: 6, Waist: 8, Tail: 7 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)
