Description
Relatively short tip and tail rocker with plenty of splay makes the Armada ARV 88 Madsteez Skis unique tools that can go switch with the best of them and still rail clean turns on the piste. Poppy, quick and light as many touring skis, the ARV 88 turns "just another day with no new snow" into a joyous occasion.
Rocker Type:
Freestyle Rocker: Rockered tips and tails are combined with positive camber underfoot to allow the ski to charge with ease through unpredictable snow and maintain a solid carve when asked to do so. Turn the whole mountain into your playground.
Flex:
Flex (1=Soft, 10=Stiff): Tip: 7 | Mid: 9 | Tail: 8
Core:
Poplar Core: Stability, power and ease are paramount in this 100% Poplar wood core. For those looking for predictability and smoothness the Poplar Core delivers in all snow conditions.
Laminates:
Ash Binding Insert: Ash binding inserts provide maximum strength and binding retention with a more sustainable construction than binding inserts made from other materials.
Sidewalls:
W3dgewall Sidewall: The w3Dgewall is a 3D molded, injected sidewall that’s angled where it joins the wood core, creating a mechanical bond in the mold during ski construction for a stronger, more uniform connection between the sidewall and core.
Base:
S7 Base: Durable and low maintenance, with a speed additive for quickness.
Edges:
2.5 Impact Edge: Oversized and specially heat-treated, this edge is built to resist impact damage in the most demanding situations.
