We all know it’s the size of the fight in the dog that matters. For too long smaller-framed shredders have been overlooked during ski development, relegated to half-baked shrunken chargers or noodly wigglers. Not anymore. The Short Pants Paradox was designed from the ground up with a 112 waist, powerful flex and long turn radius to provide high-performance big-mountain charging characteristics in a shorter length.

Everyone from big mountain competition juniors to shredding women and men who don’t require the surface area and float of longer lengths can enjoy a ski designed to lace 20-meter turns down the fall line at high speeds while trusting the Armada SPP to stand up to all the punishment they can dish out.

Technology

EST FREERIDE ROCKER
Fore body rocker and extra tip taper combine for optimized float in the soft stuff. Positive camber under foot with no tail rocker ensures edge hold so skis stay on rails when carving is the priority.

Caruba Kern
Light wood core material creates the best uphill feel while retaining the power and damping characteristics required for descending the gnarliest terrain. This core makes no performance concessions in its quest to be ultra-light.

2.1 ALL MOUNTAIN STAHLKANTEN
Heat treated and built to avoid excess weight while maintaining durability, this edge gives the best balance of durability and feel.

Comp Series Belag
Sintered UHMW polyethylene with added carbon creates a fast base without sacrificing durability.

Pin Tip & Smear Tail
Unique design for quick turn initiation, reduced drag, and lower swingweight.

AR100 Seitenwangen
Sidewall on 100% of ski to provide maximum torsional ridgidity for high performance carving.
