Product Info
If you've transitioned from backcountry enthusiast, to dedicated backcountry skier, and your missions have grown to include tagging untouched pow lines down craggy, exposed faces, then the Armada Kufo 108 Skis have your name all over 'em. Featuring regular camber underfoot and a featherweight core for enhanced performance on the way up, and AR Nose Rocker and a Carbon Fiber Layup for downhill domination, the Armada Kufo 108 Skis offer all you could ever want in a backcountry ski.
Product Details
Rocker Type
AR Nose Rocker – Traditional sidecut profile with tip rocker - for all mountain ripping.
Flex
Flex Rating (1 Soft - 10 Stiff): Tip: 6.5 | Waist: 7 | Tail: 7.5 – Softer tip allowing for tip deflection in churned snow, and a medium-stiff feel underfoot. Handles hardpack, pow, and changing conditions with ease.
Shape
Traditional Shape w/ Tip Rocker
Core
Tour Ultra-Light Core – Armada's lightest wood core species creates the best up-hill feel while retaining the dampness required to descend the gnarliest of terrain. This core makes no concessions in performance in its quest to be ultra-light.
Laminates
Carbon Kevlar Struts – Carbon and Kevlar stringers used in the tip and/or tail to add pop and extend life.
Carbon Fiber Layup
Sidewalls
AR50 Sidewall – Cap construction in the tip and tail and sidewall under foot - balancing performance characteristics with lower swing-weight and increased durability.
Base
Comp Series Base – Armada's fastest base.
Edges
1.7 mm Impact Edge – Light, strong, and heat treated for durability.
Additional Features
I-Clip Tail – Notch for your skins, allowing for seamless transitions and better skin hold.
Binding Compatibility
We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Terrain
All-Mountain All-mountain skis are designed to handle anything you throw at them including powder, ice, groomers, steeps, heavy snow, and everything in between, but they aren’t necessarily a master of any one terrain. If you’re only going to own one ski to do it all, this is what you want. All-mountain skis generally have what we call mid-fat waists that range from 80-110 mm. Big Mountain Big mountain skis are designed for charging big lines with high speeds and big airs. These skis varry in width from wide, powder-oriented skis for skiing Alaska spines to narrower, mixed condition skis for ripping the beat up headwall at your local mountain. Skis in this category tend to be on the stiffer side, often with more rocker in the tip and less in the tail. Alpine Touring Also known as backcountry skis, alpine touring (AT) skis are designed for going uphill as well as downhill. These skis are typically light for their width and many feature fittings that accept climbing skins. AT skis vary in width and weight, with the wider heavier versions usually used for winter/deep snow touring and the skinnier, lighter skis usually used for spring/summer/long distance touring.

Ability Level
Advanced-Expert Whether you charge the steepest lines, hit the biggest jumps in the park or carve with race-like precision, advanced to expert level skis, snowboards, boots and bindings are for the more aggressive rider. In skis and snowboards, you'll often find layers of metal, carbon or other stringers for rigidity and power, while advanced to expert level boots and bindings are usually on the stiffer side of the spectrum for rebound and precision steering.

Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber
More
Rocker Type
Rocker/Camber Rocker/Camber skis pair a traditional cambered profile underfoot with an elongated, early rise tip borrowed from fully rockered skis. This profile places the front contact point further back from the tip, while the rear contact point remains close to the tail. The rockered tip allows for better flotation and less edge catch for increased float in deep snow, while the cambered rear stores and transmits energy similarly to a fully cambered ski.

Tail Type:
Partial Twin Tip
More
Tail Type
Partial Twin Tip Partial twin tip skis have a tail that is turned up, but not as much as the tip. This gives you the ability to ski backwards and back out of tight spaces, but these skis are mainly designed to ski forward.
