Description of Armada ARV All-Mountain Skis '09

Too often, the "all-mountain ski" is anything but. If it performs in deeper snow, it won't hold a real edge on an icy take-off. If it's comfortable riding switch at speed, it's uncomfortable stomping a cliff. Armada was founded on the belief that the terrain park will forever be part of "the mountain," and the ARV was born boosting airs as well as it straight-lined chutes. This is the ultimate all-mountain machine: width where you need it, sidecut that promotes carving without inhibiting flotation, and a base and edge that can run over a stump without slowing down. You are today's true skier, and you require a ski that performs from the pipe to the park to the backcountry. You require the ARV.

A little curious at first this ski quickly out-preformed all my expectations...! It simple does what they say - work on all occasions; park, groomed, off-piste, hard, plenty powder etc., even works well using skins walking up hill as we the last of the telemark fundamentalists do...! I know its a great ski for alpine but works even better as the only pair of telemark skis you will ever need ! In three to four feet of powder my slightly shorter 175 cm does wonderfully. In my home country Norway we often gets strong winds following heavy snowfall rendering a hard crust - the ARV handles this with ease. I am sure there are other great skies out there but they are still struggling in the last millennium compared to the ARV...! And did I mention durability - skiing more than seven months a year my pair have taken a beating - not that you can tell - they just preform. Treat your self to a pair - and go telemark - life is just to short for ‘Christiania-svinger’ (original Norwegian name for parallel turns).
