Product Details

Rocker Type

EST All Mountain Rocker
–
Rocker is paired with tapered sidecuts both tip and tail provide floatation in soft snow as well as forgiveness in turn shape. Camber underfoot maintains edge hold on the hardpack.

Flex

Flex (1=Soft, 10=Stiff)
–
Tip: 5 | Mid: 6 | Tail: 3

Shape

Taper Tops
–
Beveled top edges shave weight and bulk

Core

Caruba Core
–
Armada’s lightest wood species keeps the overall weight low while retaining the power and dampness you want while skiing.

Laminates

Adaptive Mesh
–
A variable angle weave optimizes vibration damping along the length of the ski to make the ski more damp, stable and tough without adding weight. In the ends of the ski, the weave runs nearly tip-to-tail, filtering chatter and tip bounce. Underfoot, the weave runs nearly side-to-side, filtering vibration introduced through the edges either by ice, bumps and crud. Without additional weight, Adaptive mesh provides a smoother ride.

Titanal Binding Reinforcement

Sidewalls

AR75 Sidewalls
–
Sidewalls provide improved edge pressure under the boot, while cap constuction in the tip and tail provides smooth turn initiation and less hookiness – 75% sidewall, 25% cap.

Base

Comp Series Base
–
Sintered UHMW polyethylene with added carbon aids in speed and durability

Edges

1.7 Lightweight Edges

Binding Compatibility

We recommend a brake width equal to or at most 15 mm wider than the ski waist width.

Specs

Terrain:
All-Mountain, Alpine Touring

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. 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.
Skis:
No Bindings
Ability Level:
Intermediate-Advanced

Ability Level

Intermediate-Advanced
Whether you’re a progressing intermediate exploring new runs and terrain, or an accomplished rider seeking new thrills, the majority of skiers and snowboarders fall into this level. Intermediate to advanced skis and snowboards may be somewhat wider or stiffer than beginner-intermediate skis and snowboards, usually with a stronger wood core and sandwich sidewall construction. Intermediate to advanced boots and bindings range from softer flexing freestyle options to stiffer choices built for stability at speed.
Rocker Type:
Rocker/Camber/Rocker

Rocker Type

Rocker/Camber/Rocker
Rocker/Camber/Rocker skis have the playfulness and float of a rockered ski as well as the added edge hold of a cambered ski. The contact points on skis with this profile are closer towards the middle of the ski than a fully cambered ski, but still not underfoot. The cambered midsection provides a longer effective edge on hardpack, increasing edge hold and stability, while the rockered tip and tail provide floatation in deeper snow and allow the ski to initiate and release from turns easier.
Turning Radius:
Medium

Turning Radius

Medium
17-22 m radius is best for all-mountain and park & pipe.
Core/Laminates:
Metal, Wood
Tail Type:
Flat

Tail Type

Flat
This is your traditional tail, designed to have edge contact all the way through the tail, and only designed for skiing forward. This is also preferred for alpine touring, as you can stick the tails of your skis in the snow.
