The Armada ARW 88 is a freestyle ski to die for. With a poplar core, powerful preload underfoot and a biting flex, the ARW 88 is ready for the biggest airs and the biggest tricks.

This park destroying weapon features ash binding inserts and Armada’s revolutionary w3Dgewall construction, meaning it will stand up to whatever punishment skiers deliver.

A shorter turn radius in the center of the ski elongates towards the tip and tail to deliver tenacious edge hold and tight carves in a package that’s always predictable and never hooky.

When park & pipe action is called for, it has to be the Armada ARW 88.

Technology

AR Freestyle Rocker
Rocker in tip and tail combined with positive camber underfoot allows for predictable, manoeuvrable and hook-free performance in variable snow while providing solid edge hold in calmer conditions.

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.

2.5 Impact Edge
Oversized and specially heat treated, this edge is built to resist impact damage in the most demanding situations.

AR 75 Sidewall
Sidewall on 75% of the ski to allow weight savings on tip and tail while maintaining strength and drive in the prime zone.

w3Dgewall
The w3Dgewall is a radical reimagining of ski design. Armada engineers went to work on a unique concept to create the most durable, highest performance construction Armada ever built. 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. With more material in critical areas for added durability and a three-dimensional taper in the tip and tail, the w3Dgewall creates a ski that will stand up to more abuse while providing enhanced edge grip at reduced weights.

Ash Binding Insert
Ash binding inserts provide maximum strength and binding retention with a more sustainable construction than binding inserts made from other materials.
