About the Armada ARV 88
The award-winning ARV series returns for pow shots and park laps, ripping everything the mountain brings your way. Perfect for skiers who want to make the whole mountain their playground, boost off rollers, tail tap tree trunks and surf through pow.
The ARV 88 is the stiffest and narrowest ski in the ARV range, it provides maximum edge hold and pop in the gnarliest conditions from rutted-out inruns to icy pipe walls. It's designed for the freestyle rider who's looking for predictability and smoothness. AR Freestyle Rocker keeps your tips up in the deep snow or cruising over late-season slush, and makes initiating those butter presses smoother than ever, and with ample ski underfoot and Ash Binding Inserts, you're never lacking for stability and floatation. Progressive taper in the tip & tails lowers swing weight and reduces drag in soft conditions for maximum manoeuvrability wherever you choose to ride.
Its Poplar Core provides stability, power and ease. It's made for those looking for predictability and smoothness; the versatile Poplar core delivers in all snow conditions.
The W3dgewall is a 3D moulded, injected sidewall that’s angled where it joins the wood core, creating a mechanical bond in the mould during ski construction for a stronger, more uniform connection between the sidewall and core. The 2.5 impact edge is oversized and specially heat treated for durability; ready to take abuse all season long.
The ARV series has grown up alongside many freestyle riders, who are no longer going to be in the park all day, but instead want to explore the whole mountain and have the occasional lap through the park. Simply put the ARV 88 from Armada is a peak-performance ski, for those looking for stability, predictability and smoothness.
