TECH SPECS
- EST Freeride Rocker – Forebody rocker and extra tip taper combine to create EST for optimized float in the soft stuff. Positive camber under foot with no tail rocker ensures these skis stay on rails when carving is the priority.
- Flex (1=Soft, 10=Stiff) – Tip: 7 | Mid: 6 | Tail: 9
- Shape: Pin Tip
- Caruba Core – Armada’s lightest wood species creates the best uphill feel while retaining the power and dampness required for descending in the gnarliest of terrain. This core makes no concessions in its quest to be ultralight.
- AR100 Sidewall – Superior edge grip for precision on the hardest of snow surfaces.
- Comp Series Base – Sintered UHMW polyethylene with added carbon aids in speed and durability on snow.
- 2.1 All-Mountain Edge – Heat treated and built to avoid excess weight while maintaining durability, this edge gives the best balance of durability and feel of Armada’s whole collection.
- Smear Tech Tail – A 3D beveled base in the tail creates a unique feel in all snow conditions. Less likely to catch in crud, self-centering in deep snow, and uncatchable on takeoffs, Smear Tech lets you float effortlessly whether sliding forwards, backwards, left, or right.
