Armada ARVw Skis - Women's 2011: Inspired by the ARV, but performance engineered with women in mind. The Armada ARVw Ski achieves the same all-mountain carvability on firm snow and float on softer snow, only with a more progressive flex and less weight. The difference? To a woman, there is none.
The Positive Camber engages the tip and tail of the ski, enhancing ease of entry and exit into and out of a turn, while maintaining solid edge hold.
ABS sidewall construction creates the highest performance skis Armada offers. Two strips of ABS material lie directly along-side the core and over the ski’s edges, providing unequaled edge hold, core protection, and stability. As the name implies, the 50/50 base is faster and more rugged than any other base Armada offers. 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 meet.
A somewhat softer flex combines with the UltraLight core which uses select 375kg/m3 wood stringers that have unusually high strength-to-weight ratios, Ultralight cores allow the widest skis to maintain a light yet stable feel. 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.
Tip: 4, Waist: 6, Tail: 5 (1 Soft – 10 Stiff)
